  happy birthday 2 me!!.

  sunday is my 76th birthday and i know that you want to know how it "feels" to have outlived my usefulness, to have lost my natural beauty (being reduced to wrinkles and flab), and constantly walking into a room not knowing why i'm there.

  you also are curious as to how i can continue to find a reason to live since none of my kids think my opinions have any possible value, most of my facebooks friends i wouldn't recognize if i tripped over them on my way into starbucks, and my monthly expenditure on bird treats exceeds u.s. spending on the military.

  Grace Gough ("Mouthy") and the 83 Tapes

  by JW_Researcher in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  grace gough (“mouthy’) sent me 83 cassette tapes 16 years ago (2006).. .

  when she sent them, i understood them to be ‘testimonies’ of jws who became christians.

  there are some labeled “so-and-so’s testimony” so at least some are that.. others appear to be talks, like the morning session of the 1981 “ex –jws for jesus” convention.

  Starting September 01, 2022, the Angels will help in the ministry work

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  2022 governing body update # 6. what exciting news david splane has for all jehovah's witnesses ( who for the last three years were spared the house-to-house preaching work ) '' that we'll return to the ministry september 01, 2022. just in time for our world wide campaign to start bible studies.

  and, i'm sure the angels are excited too, because it will give them opportunities to help us with our ministry.''.

  not only will the witnesses be rusty in their return to the field ministry, the angels in heaven have been sitting idle while the pandemic stopped the house-to-house ministry.

  Where I live Covid is on the rise big time. I can’t imagine people opening their doors to strangers when we are still masking. Kids are back to school. It’s going to be interesting.
