  Hi Everyone

  i have been reading here for a while but as you may of noticed the assembly games post has flushed me out!

  it has been fascinating to read all your experiences and to know that the stuff that i thought was odd, was thought odd by others as well.. two things made me leave:.

  1. i found i could not do return visits as i did not want to break up families.

  by ESTEE in

  2. experiences

  this is something i've been mulling over.

  just would like to hear opinions as to whether faders, or inactive ones think they are superior to disfellowshipped or disassociated ones?

  what is your experience with this?

  uh, hello, uh, well, i wanted to know how long it will be before the "newbie" title comes off?

  i noticed that some others who have been here since 2004 still have the title "newbie".

  well, my wife called him the other day to see if he had gotten our e-mails (never got back to us).

  Did anyone just get tired?

  by woodmonkey in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  during my days as a witness, which was only about 10 years ending circa 1981, most of my memories revolve around how totally exhausted i always felt.

  toward the last, i was dragging my family out to the five meetings a week and working fulltime and getting my quota of publisher hours on the little sheet every month, even doing the temporary pioneering bit now and again.

  when i had the ministry school, i even worked a four day week to be able to give every talk on the program in case someone did not show up, which frequently happened in our little congregation west of fort worth, tx.
