Don't be so hard on the CO's. You have to realize that they use the "trickle down" form of encouragement. There is only enough time to encourage and shake hands with the first in line. Elders and families, lunch hosts, pioneers, etc. Soooo, if you want to really benefit from his presence, you need to make sure you are on the lunch list, or arrange to be in his car group. That way, you can let his encouragement trickle down thru you to the lesser ones.

39CO Visit this week....
by MaybeSo inso, we are meeting our new co this week... i wonder if he'll be as glory hungry as the last one and the one before him and the one... well you can get the idea.
too bad we didn't volunteer to feed him .
that makes me wonder...why do they receive so much glory and attention as if they were some type of celebrity?

Stop fighting about Oompa.
by Robert7 ini am writing this because i am so upset about the bickering and fighting that is going on about oompa.
this was an amazing wonderful, peaceful, giving man who never met a strager who is now deceased and you are taking his name and running all over the place with it using it for your own agendas.
he is not a statistic.

How will the folks in his old congregation feel? What will they say? What will they think....?"
Oh, forget that! Who really gives a s**t about what they think?

to date JWism has defined my life and i hate that TRUTH
by oompa inand i am finding the adjustment to the real world far more difficult than i ever imagined...i f...it has been about five years since i totally woke up to the fraudulant nwt and then all my other doubts i had carried for years were proved true as well.
but almost all of my few friends are exjw or slack jw's and i feel so isolated...my sons friends are mostly exjw too but not their gf's and they have way more normal friends .
how have you done at replacing lifelong friends and family?

I got a kick out of how the "elder" on the right handled himself during the prayer. To me it was obvious they already had made their decision. He was ready to rock!!
