  You know guys- after I thought about my post alittle I realized it might not be to "see" who was donating. It would be easier to see who didn't approach the box! Biddie

  Hellrider- this is true. Bracketing was added later, after other Christian translators protested the non-bracketed stuff! Biddie

  Where did you sit at the Kingdom Hall?

  i always preferred the back of the hall.

  here, i could go to sleep, read the latest awake!

  if you're at either end of the middle row of seats, you can see who has studied their watchtower and who hasn't.

  Ms mcducket- I feel like everything happens for a reason. I was affiliated with Jws for most of my life and now help others to learn the truth about the organization (when I can). Don't be embarrassed! I was brought into "the truth" as a baby! Is that my fault? Only by the grace of God did I get out. Now- it's actually a gift, because my knowledge of the bible is all that more strong! Jehovah loves you! Biddie

  My Friend's JW Brother Died-------- To Go To KH Funeral Or Not???

  by minimus in

  i've been grappling with going to my very good friend's brother's funeral in a nearby hall where everyone knows me.

  if i go to the service it is only to show respect to my friend and the relatives (some are jws, some not).

  my friend said that if i didn't go, he would understand but i'm torn.

  Minimus- Boy! Going would be tough for you. I understand the difficulty. If you feel in your heart that you should go , then BE STRONG and go! If not, then do not FEEL GUILTY for not going! Many here have good suggestions, and i think you could go somewhere with your friend.

  You never know- If you go you might be a great influence on others! biddie

  Billygoat- That's the same with me. My wife and I know exactly what we gave and what the church took in. and where the church spent it! Pretty cool huh?

  Youre questions are quite valid! Biddie

  I think it's less discreet. You're now standing up and walking to the box and more people can see you.

  They might not know what you gave, but?
