i open a new topic, to find out how it's going in your area.
from what i see as a southern european in my constituency the situation is patchy.. the congregation where i am now has 30% old people on zoom but also young couples with almost all their cameras off.
no increase but a slight decrease in the total number of publishers.. circuit assemblies: before covid you couldn't find a free seat if you arrived 10 minutes before the start.
hoser: lol/hilarious! "I think the higher ups are wondering where everyone went."
The mucky-muck old hall here had one very thick, prominent, clique - since high school - couple college drop outs with wild fabricated stories of only one unit left to graduate - most likely early 70s when they were swept away to WT land. I continually heard so and so studied/baptized (late 80s/early 90s) and fell away which seemed odd yet at same time I knew why.

Kaleb - are the halls full of JWs in LV? I know there was a new one built couple yrs. ago in the Southwest part of town but read here on jw.com they're built to accommodate smaller groups of adherents. I've not heard of any halls being sold in LV but noticed fewer congregations listed online couple yrs. ago -- maybe they've grown the nos. since then.
There was a topic here about the JWs at Super Bowl -- unreal.
I think Vegas could be an unusual area and recall an elder mentioning yrs. ago how many new JWs move to the territory, join a hall, and shortly, thereafter, move on.

Other religions are interesting and Slimboyfat has great info/stats! Catholic churches here were packed couple yrs. ago and it's hard to believe they're losing so many.
JW GoneBad - elated and hopeful.

jehovah’s witnesses fail to get state recognition in lithuania.
news2024.06.06 13:46. lithuanian lawmakers on thursday denied state recognition to the lithuanian jehovah’s witnesses religious community.. in total, 88 mps voted against granting jehovah’s witnesses state recognition, two were in favour, and three abstained.. according to the seimas, this community does not comply with the lithuanian constitution and its requirement that religious teachings and rituals be in accordance with the law and integrity.. the resolution says that the religious teaching of jehovah’s witnesses prohibiting blood transfusions is incompatible with the constitutional right to life of a human being and the right to state-guaranteed medical aid.. it also says that the community’s teaching prohibiting participation in the defence of the state with weapons or contribution to the defence of the state by non-military means encourages non-compliance with the constitution and its requirements to defend the state against a foreign armed attack.. read more: https://www.lrt.lt/en/news-in-english/19/2290924/jehovah-s-witnesses-fail-to-get-state-recognition-in-lithuania#:~:text=lithuanian%20lawmakers%20on%20thursday%20denied,in%20favour%2c%20and%20three%20abstained.
Awesome.
another creepy pervert elder convicted of multiple counts of child sexual abuse in pennsylvania.
this guy moved from puerto rico to lancaster, pa in the 1990's, worked his way up thru to being an elder, and then used his position to babysit families with children and abuse them.
he then denied everything, but when some victims went to the police, he fled back to pr, where us marshall's eventually caught up to him and arrested him.
I agree, ThomasMore! I've never known anyone positive about the WT religion. One embarrassing cult!
