ALL JW's to be at the meeting this week...
by Newly Enlightened in.
we asked this person if it could be aqbout the terminology change and they said that was already read last week...... we remember the last time they did this.
got everyone all excited thinking the big "a" was coming and all it was about, was the literature would now be donated instead of charging for it.. .

What Raymond Frantz said on page 2. In the U.S. the Regional Building Committees are changing to Local Design & Planning Committees or something to that effect. BOEs met this past weekend, at least in the southern U.S.

by doinmypart inin the u.s. there are fewer venues this year, but they will be held in larger facilities.
as long as i can remember my family travelled no more than 2 hours to attend and in the last few years the dc was local (within a few minutes travel).
this year my family is driving 6 hours to a major u.s. city.

My MIL is assigned to New Orleans, but she doesn't want to travel there by herself so she will be attending with my wife. Most of the conventions in the U.S. will be International conventions and most of the congregations will be assigned to an international, but there are a few non-International conventions that will be tied-in to the Internationals during certain talks by GB and other heavies.

Did your congregation have a "Pioneer Appreciation Day"?
by Coffee House Girl inmy mom (who is now a regular pioneer) has been laid up after having major surgery, and i assert my "biblical" rights as a daughter to do what i can to take care of her, so i have been trying to go to her house on my day off to vaccum and run errands for her since she is not supposed to drive.. she called me last saturday to tell me that i couldn't come by because she was driving to her pioneer appreciation day get-together, wtf .
i'm just curious if this only happens in my area (michigan, us)????.
chg. .

They do it every year here in a few southern U.S. congregations I'm familiar with. In my wife's congregation they had a dinner for the pioneers. In a neighboring congregation they did a black & white (formal affair) after the hour-long pioneer meeting; most of the congregation was invited to do obeisance to the pioneers! lol
It is a pretty common thing around here.

Sahs - I probably didn't word the OP clearly. I'm not attending the DC, and I'm not messed up about the reservations my wife made. I was simply interested in finding out about WTS' use of JW.org. I'm on a course separate from the WTS and doing alright. I still have a lot of family involved so there are still some things that pique my interest on occasion.
I found out the WTS has lodging lists on their website and congregation members use a login to access. Just passing this along as I found it interesting.

The convention has been 15 minutes or 2 hours from my house, depending on location. This year my family is driving 6 hours to a location we've never been to before.

This year my family is driving 6 hours to a major U.S. city. The convention is not an international or foreign language. The stadium they will be attending can hold 50,000+ (again this is not an international site).
Why is the WTS doing this? Is it to create some kind of fervor among the R&F? Re-create feelings of times past when conventions were larger and longer? Do you think the R&F will be happy or upset? I know several that have lost jobs and will have a difficult time funding this trip.
I hate that I have to pay for travel to a distant city and probably end up going with them. I really hate this.

Here's a link to the video "http://theworldnewsmedia.org/The+Walls+of+Jericho+-+%28Full+Movie%29"
Cute kids, good effort, but a congregation taking initiative like this? Man oh man, the Watchtower is gonna shut this one down.
