on one of the recent boe letters, they sent a rbc form to document any accidents on the jobsite.
there is a portion to check if the injured person was an elder, pioneer, ms, etc.... .
why does this matter?

Insurance would pay if the accident occured on rented property. However, on WTS-owned property, I don't know if there *is* an insurance company to deal with. Somehow I have thought that the society was 'self-insured'. And if that is the case, I wonder how generous they would be with a payout...?

Hi Snowbird~! Nice to see you post again.

the writer of this article commends the work jw's have been doing on suicide prevention.
obviously he has not seen the secret elders tapes.. .

from the article linked by the OP: Two faith-based organizations have been doing commendable work. Awake! magazine (Jehovah's Witnesses) did an article about reasons to live and Eljiah's Journey is an organization dedicated to being "A Jewish Response to the Issues of Suicide Awareness and Prevention" (I am neither a Jehovah's Witness or Jewish; however, I serve on the advisory board for Elijah's Journey).
Wow! He sure got this one wrong.

exjw elder and felony fugative, michael johnson norris, plead guilt today, 2/27/2014, in santa barbara county superior court for sexual molestation of the daughter of brandon joel, under a plea deal norris was sentenced to in state prison, a far cry from the possible 25 years he could have received had the case gone to trial.
the family has full intentions of pursuing a civil litigation against norris and the watchtower society that harbors pedophiles..
TGND wrote: I believe that will change with the efforts of OP Ed pieces that are being submitted. This case is also still fledgling. There will be news generated through the pursuit of civil litigation no doubt.
I sure hope so.
If you can, tell us specifically how we can help. I could have - and would have liked to have been - present when sentencing was passed.

69 years old is elderly? Maybe. IDK.
I hope this helps the victim/family heal.
I was hoping this would be on the local evening news but after 2x 30minute programs, nothing. The storm is taking up most of the news today. Too bad this story is not getting more press.

i've been pondering......with this new "push" to direct individuals to thw jw.org website, even when the dubs are out preaching...what do you think the future will be for the preaching work?.
some time ago i read that the mormons have implemented a live chat feature that allows you to speak with their missionaries....i doubt the borg would do this, but i think they have something up their sleeves.. peace.

Maybe 'cookies' and 'spyware' for all who go to their website???

Maybe they want more people logging on to *up* the metrics used for google search hits? This would balance out the JWN, JWFACTS and Freeminds hits. No?

look what i just found.... "the jehovahs witness convention, christian congregation was approved for a $30,000 grant to offset the cost of renting veterans memorial arena july 4-6 and july 18-20.".

i wonder how much are they charged for that event or if it ends up being close to free since the city will say it will generate revenue for the city.
There have been several threads about convention deficits in general and many more on specific incidents (ie: Tacoma), but here a thread from 10 years ago that is pretty informative:
