My wife follows all my Jehovah's Witness family on Instagram. They posted photos of everyone wearing masks for the Memorial. Even my nephew's small children under five were wearing masks. I would like to know how many decided to watch the Memorial on Zoom?

The senseless ''non partakers'' Jesus Memorial
by RULES & REGULATIONS inmatthew 26: 18-20 .
18 he said: “go into the city to so-and-so and say to him, ‘the teacher says: “my appointed time is near; i will celebrate the passover with my disciples at your home.19 so the disciples did as jesus instructed them and prepared for the passover.20 when evening came, he was reclining at the table with the 12 disciples.. only jesus and his 12 disciples were present at the passover .if jesus wanted observers, he would of had some sit down at his last meal and requested that they be present that day and future passovers.
why does the wts feel that observers ( non partakers ) need to attend the yearly memorial?

Jesus—The Way, the Truth, the Life
CHAPTER 117
On this same evening as the Passover meal, Jesus introduces an entirely new type of meal. He takes a loaf, says a prayer of thanks, breaks it, and gives it to his apostles to eat. He says:
“This means my body, which is to be given in your behalf. Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” (Luke 22:19) The piece of bread is passed around, and the apostles eat of it.
Now Jesus takes a cup of wine, says a prayer of thanks over it, and passes it to them. Each drinks from the cup, about which Jesus says: “This cup means the new covenant by virtue of my blood, which is to be poured out in your behalf.”—Luke 22:20.
Thus Jesus arranges for a memorial of his death that his followers are to hold each year on Nisan 14. It will call to mind what Jesus and his Father have done to enable men of faith to escape from the condemnation of sin and death. Even more so than did the Passover for the Jews, it highlights true liberation for believing mankind.(I no longer believe in the Bible) but, If I'm not mistaken, Jesus did away with the old covenants. This new covenant did away with the old Nisan 14 covenant. Saying, '' It will call to mind what Jesus and his Father have done to enable men of faith to escape from the condemnation of sin and death'' is simply not true.

Why does the WTS feel that observers ( non partakers ) need to attend the yearly Memorial? Why can't the Elders have a Memorial with only members who (supposedly) are part of the 144,000?
Jesus didn't pass bread and wine around to non partakers. If the Watchtower Society follow every Bible passage to a tee, why have they disregarded this monumental instruction?

I realize Witness world is a small fishbowl where a guy who may not be attractive and has nothing going for him will be sought after by desperate women.
I witnessed many marriages where the women were 5-7 older than their husbands. They sought these unattractive men because they knew that the pickings were slim.
The worst marriages were the 18 year old's who couldn't wait to get into each others pants. After they realized that they only dated just one person in their life, they go off and cheat. They get divorced and get disfellowshipped. Years later one of them show up with a new marriage parter.

Eight years ago I started a thread:
Walk in your Kingdom Hall and tell us what you saw!
Here is what I wrote:
Every week the same brothers and sisters are late getting to the meeting. Elders are talking with other Elders ( who always have notes and folders in their hands). "Brother Kiss Ass " is always around the Elders hoping he'll get more privileges. Shy Brother is sitting down until meeting starts and leaves as soon as meeting ends.
The sisters have way too much perfume and makeup on. Their long dresses make them look Amish. "Brother $2000 suit" and "Brother $200 off the rack suit" both are talking to beautiful sisters (who in the real world would never have a chance but here will marry with no problem).Here are a couple of comments about my ''hater thread'' :
COMMENT # 1 :
lol at this hater thread.
COMMENT # 2
Wuz, I'm not knocking it, don't get me wrong, but it does come off like a hater thread. Plenty of truth in this thread but this stood out to me.
Brother $2000 suit" and "Brother $200 off the rack suit" both are talking to beautiful sisters (who in the real world would never have a chance but here will marry with no problem).
I mean, that's hating lol. Other than that, plenty of truth in that post and this thread. Hilarious too.
COMMENT # 3
As for the comment about the brother in the expensive suit and other brother in cheap ass suit making conversation with beautiful sisters they would never normally have a chance of hooking up with-- this is ABSOLUTE REALITY
I know one sister who basically married her jw stalker. Yes, he is ugly as f%#@ and she is gorgeous. You can only reject so many even when you're gorgeous in this org. Apparently she had already hit 30 and was in the final legs of potential suitors. She held out too long. Result= marry the ugly monster with no personality.
I know of another sister who is also pretty and likewise rejected potential suitors without thought or concern. But see, she was a convert and had not fully appreciated the disadvantage and game behind the jw dating scene. Now she's37-- a spinster according to jw world. Condemned to be single.
