  2. entertainment

  as kid i remember a break of 15 minutes between the public talk and the wt study.

  all the new ones and "weak" ones ran out to smoke.

  loved to see the attendant round them up to come back in when the droning began again.

  sometimes i look at the world and i think "man, how much longer can it go on?

  " sometimes i think perhaps armageddon will come in my life-time.

  the one scripture i always think of is the one in revelation where it says that jehovah "will bring to ruin, those ruining the earth.

  back in 1991, a young brother maybe 18 years old living next to my place committed suicide.

  his father expected him to be very zealous just like he was, but the son never wanted to be like that.

  he was always controlled by his father.

  Are there any ex-missionaries here??

  by fulano in

  2. experiences

  i have been a missionary in the dominican republic for almost 10 years and i was wondering if there were any ex-missionaries on this forum.. i am back in my country now for 3 years and totally inactive.. what i noticed in those missionary-years was the lack of spiritual interest among the missionaries.. discussions were about rooms, cars and greater responsibilities, the bad territory.

  and the local c.o.s and d.os.. was this only in the dr or are there other experiences??.

  ere other experiences?
