  look for it in the yearbook next year.

  there was an assembly the day of the big mudslide in washington last saturday.

  a sister's life was saved because she obediently attended the assembly and thus was not home when a huge mudslide hit her neighborhood and buried and killed lots of people.

  JWorg today:

  A mile-wide mudslide buried homes in Snohomish County, Washington, USA on March 22, 2014. Local officials state that up to 90 people are still missing and 17 people have been confirmed dead. The United States branch office of Jehovah’s Witnesses reports that one female Witness is among the missing. One Witness couple lost both their daughter and great-granddaughter in the mudslide. Two Witnesses had to evacuate their homes; the home of another Witness was completely destroyed. Local Witness elders are providing comfort and support to those affected by the disaster.

  Horrible movie. Do NOT waste your time. I'm not kidding, it was the worst movie I've seen in I don't know how long. I understand and expected liberites to be taken, but this twisted what could have been a decent epic into I don't know what. CGI?? LOL.

  I always felt they should provide housing for those older ones that have "volunteered" for decades, and now have nothing.

  Will firing the DOs be the first step to a new Watchtower?

  by Juan Viejo2 in

  against my better judgement, i've decided to share the following as a response to guy pierce passing and the announcement of the elimination of district overseers later this year.. late in january (2014) i got an email from one of my contacts (a fader) who served at bethel for several years, but is no longer at wt hq.

  he still has a lot of close contacts within the service department and in other departments at patterson and knows people in all of the ny offices.

  i kept this email set aside on a flash drive and haven't shared it with anyone - figuring i'd publish an article about it later this year when i had more time to do it right.

  I knew Angelo pretty well. Great public speaker. Liked to drink wine and cheat at golf..LOL. He could be tough, but had a good sense of humor. When he got old, kind of grew his hair out. Looked like an orchestra conductor.
