It has been 7 yrs ago that I went to my last memorial service at the KH. Seems like forever.

Have been enjoying the freedom that it gives us but do miss our family. My kids talk but not about religion. (Not too often) Really enjoy this board it has given us alot of infromation and know that if I need to know anything at all you will all help. We are some of the old folks that spent 46 yrs. in the WT. It is our kids that we can"t get out. We have grandkids and great grandkids that we don't get to enjoy anymore. We are bad association. That is so hard to take because we are the same loving parents we have always been.

This shunning is hard to take since we are 74 & 75 yrs old. But the WT doesn't care if you are 100.

They are so loving aren't they.?????. Thanks for letting me vent.

Blondie: thank you for your information. I have read how many time WT have changed their minds on that subject. Love your coments

Farkel: I thought of the money too. Looks like they also add more pictures to fill up the book to look like it was so much bigger.and full of information.

Kudra: you should read Crisis Of Conscience if you haven't. It is so interesting I'm on my second time.

Elder quits meetings

by buffalosrfree in

i received good news from my daughter, it was amazing to her, but she informed me that she met an old friend from a congregations we attended 10 years ago, and the upshot was that the friends partents no longer attended meetings.

he her dad had been an elder the last i talked with him, he had left the congregation we were in due to the attitude of other elders there, went to a new congregation and the last i heard was very happy there.

we had had conversations about various aspects of the supposed truth and he always tried to counsel me about the troooth as spouted by the pharasies then.

desertflower

I agree with Mouthy. There are too many leaving the Org. and God too. Remember the org. doesn't have anything to do with serving the God and reading your bible which ever one you read.

does anyone know where farkel is?

would like his e-mail address please.. desertflower.

Thank you for responding. An article that Doug wrote about a lady called Berta Peal caught my eye and I wondered how he knew about her. I knew her personally and knew about her involvement with Rutherford. I go back to when they had the phonograph and have listened to Rutherfords talks.
