The first thing came to mind is "are they for real" had to laugh at the use of photocopiers and to beware of them hehehheh.

WTS Letter to Elders
by doinmypart inactually the letter is from the christian congregation of jehovah's witnesses.
it was sent to elders in february 2002, after our last km school.. i scanned and posted this letter back in 2002, but with the influx of new posters this is a good time to bring this letter back to light.. it discusses field service, inactive publishers, shepherding, marital problems, child abuse, and other topics.
some of the topics in the letter have been updated in more recent correspondence, but overall this is an interesting read.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/tmp/boe20020318.pdf.

How can they know what your right motive is? Maybe you do have a right motive but coz it raises valid points bout the organization they dont want to know bout then they can just say well you dont have the right motive.
what a load of crap

Brothers In Good Standing
by Englishman ini heard today that brothers who volunteered at assemblies were only accepted on the proviso that they were "brothers in good standing".
i also heard that anyone reproved or df'd might have to wait for 3 to 5 years before being allowed to clean the gent's loos as a volunteer.. is that right?
what other things are held back from folk who aren't quite up to the mark?.

Please Please PLEASE post some words of encouragement to my JW friend......
by PAJA ini will try to make this quick...... .
i have been with this wonderfull woman in a "relationship" for almost one year now (ive known her for 3 years).

Hi PAJA,
sorry to hear of your situation...im sort of in the same boat except im the jw or ex jw. Im a fader havnt been to a meeting in years. I was married to a fellow JW which ended in divorce over two years ago. Now I am engaged to a wonderful man who isnt a JW, my parents wont have anything to do with the wedding coz what im doing is unscriptual and wrong....but what i have learnt is that the man I am with now is 100 times better than the JW i married just to keep my family happy.
Hope her love for you will endure this hard time

Marriage Proposal.
by Englishman ini just found out today that my jw mum has turned down a proposal of marriage for the fourth time.
none of the proposals were from the same guy either, although all 4 were jw's.
i'm also told that mum's considered quite a dish for an octogenarian.. however, i'm also reliably informed that one of the main reasons for her refusals is because of the df'd "state" of my kid brother and myself.. see, she's considered a mature dub, one of the elite, and she also gets her own quiet ration of new light.

thats what all mums should be like sigh

Making contact with family
by Crumpet insome of you may know that my parents and whole family do not have any contact with me, apart from my dad who has provided his mobile number for "family business/emergencies".
i never try to contact them anymore after a negative experience after being beaten up trying to break up a streetfight last november when i called my dad and he hung up as soon as he realised it was me crying on the other end.. .
anyway - i decided that just because they want to forget about me i don't have to be the same anymore and i wanted them to know how happy i was.

Hey crumpet....well done you have stooped to their level.

weirdest dream
by Es inhey all, just posting this again as i cant seem to find it.
i had the weirdest dream the other night i was goin to the memorial(which i did not attend in reality) and there was an elder there from my old cong who recently passed away in real life a couple of months ago.
his ghost was standing at the door and only i could see him, he followed me around the whole kingdom hall.
