JW congegrations
by spiceant ini have been looking for dates and places when jwitnesses hold their congegrations in their kingdom halls but i have failed to find the dates, i did find one kingdom hall within my city (within a 25 minutes action radius).
but when do they hold their congegrations?
i'v never been to one but that you can supposidly walk into any of the congegrations is something.. about a 9 months ago (august 2005) i red an article about a phenomena i would later know as peak oil which is generally about how the western society is very dependant on oil and is incapable of turning away from it before it becomes to expensive of a commodity for us (very generally speaking).

It all sounds very typical. So many rules were spawned from the commands of Jesus Love God with whole heart, mind and soul; Neighbor as self and Love one another. You can see that he really meant to say all the other stuff about how to run a DC and how to give the talks there and every other frickin rule that has ever been written in the WT/publications.........
White shirts; suits [trousers and matching jacket] I thought this was just standard clothing for all dubz? -

I've had it. I want to DA myself
by White Waves inbut i am afraid to send a letter to my old kh.
what should i write to make sure they don't just df me?
also, they refused my request to da myself before.

I dont get it. You requested to DA and they refused. As far as you're concerned, you already DA'd. It is their bad luck if they refused it. You already did. And you sound like you are being treated accordingly. If it was me, I would consider myself out of there.

Whilst at the last "international" we were all told NOT to support any of the "worldly" food venues in the area. Virtually straight after the announcement, our son and his cousin turn up with food from MacDonalds. All the people around us were aghast, you could see their mouths open in shock and they were waiting for us to "discipline" these naughty boys. But we were too busy,........ laughing til we nearly cried. It was ironic and typical of kids to do that. These two then had to sit there and eat their maccas, while the smell permeated the air for all and sundry.

When we were much younger, my brother standing on a balcony above the food preparation area, spat and it went into the carrots that were being cut up.
Went to a hotel when I turned 21!! which was at a CA.
At another CA my friends and I got pretty drunk and went nude swimming in the motel pool. Heaps of dubs were staying there.
When I was a teen ager we got into a fight with some other dub kids from another state.
BUt.....the best....for us, the last DC we went to, my wife and I arrived half hour before lunch, sat where we could be seen by many who knew us, then had lunch outside, socialized heaps, then when the lambs were all called to come back in and sit down, we headed for the carpark and went home. The best convention ever! -

You could hide out in the change room at the DC,probably have to avoid the heavy security, then get into your "modest attire" and walk out with the rest of them. Just like the guys just did in prison break!!!!
I actually got to do the dipping once. Man, I esteemed it as a huge privelege. Poor little lambs. I did have to put someone back under as the official observer said the foot come out of the water. -

You could also look at the sneaky change to the 2 big questions for each baptismal candidate has to answer on the day. These changed and not too many even heard it or saw it. Man I didn't.

p.s. They aslo get on the streets and yell out their message of salvation. I went up to one, one day and said "Hey, do you think Jesus Christ would have stood on the street corner and yelled out like an idiot??"
Wow did he flush, he went scarlet red and then told me jesus died for sinners like me. Mustv'e taken all his strength not to come after me and smash me....
