  Got "THE letter" ....how to proceed?

  my husband and i faded/mysteriously disappeared from meetings over a year ago.

  we've had a few visits from elders (where we said very little but thanked them for their time), the last one being when we had some nice jack o lanterns sitting on our porch.

  on saturday, we got letters cordially inviting us to our beheading, i mean, our judicial committee meeting.

  Several people including Lenny used parts or all of my old letter at http://www.docbob.org/wordpress/?p=22

  Back then it usually stopped the judicial action. From what I hear it no longer has that effect. It does give them something to think about though.

  My original purpose was not to be threatening, but to get the elders that I used to serve with to think about their real role. They are not scriptural elders but agents of a multinational mutli-billion-dollar corporation.

  Got a letter “inviting” me to my Judicial hearing- should I go?

  hey everyone, my family and i have not gone to meeting in over a year.

  rumors have swirled about us, but i have always dodged the elders calls and never said anything about my feelings.

  so after a while the calls/visits dwindled, but in october they came by again and saw our halloween decorations.

  i've created a map in google maps for people to mark their location, you don't have to put your real identity if you don't want to.. you need to sign in with a google account, click the 'edit' button and then drop a marker on your location.

  add a photo if you like!.

  'All Along the Watchtower' - Its True Meaning Revealed!

  by sd-7 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for many years, the significance of bob dylan's song, all along the watchtower, has been unclear.

  what meaning does it have for us today?

  how do we understand it in light of what the bible says?

  Lots of nice pictures there. I recently rediscovered my love of photography. I used to do a fair bit of photography (back in the old days when we used film) :) But it was one of the things I just kind of let go during my JW years. I bought a DSLR this summer and got back into it. I have a bunch of stuff up on Flickr - are any of you on there? http://www.flickr.com/photos/50776430@N05/
