You said, "and then Dallas GA where he had to address this abuse when attempting one of his multiple reinstatements ... in a letter of apology to them all."
His prior congregation records & info should have been forwarded to his current congregation, correct? Did he have to do the apology letter after moving to GA? Was he reinstated by GA elders?
If so, wouldn't all of this info about his past have been available to the elders in GA?

I was an accident born to two pioneers. 3rd Generation JW. Finally wised up and was faded out by my early 30s. My parents are still firmly entrenched and ready for the Big A.

Elder wisdom ???
by KAYTEE inthis is elder wisdom in play, at my last congregation they had a map mounted on the wall of the whole territory, this was divided into small segments and given a number, thus producing a quantity of smaller maps.
( a bit like a jig saw puzzle) which was also given a corresponding number.. they then had a colour coding system of round stickers, red, blue and green.
red = territory not covered in 2 years.

LOL - It's been so long I have forgotten a lot of those little things. I do remember seeing the map hanging up on the wall in the KH.
I guess the one good thing that came out of all that field service is I learned how to read maps really good.
Give me a map and I can get anywhere. And it was all from those little cards with the sections of maps stuck on them. -

Patient Unexpectedly Blows Off Steam!
by bigmouth ini volunteered today to work with an agency that cares for people with psychiatric and intellectual problems, a kind of place that helps former patients learn coping and practical skills.
i was being introduced to some of the patients and for a brief moment got to talk with a young man who told me about some serious problems along with his separation from his wife.
suddenly, it all came out how jehovahs witnesses f..... up his life and interfered in his marriage!

"He looks terribly sad and yet shows flashes of anger so there's a lot going on."
Sounds like he's on the same roller coaster ride many of us are on or have been on. -

As lurkers, what kept you from posting? Fear? Was there a basis for it?
by What-A-Coincidence infor me it was the fear of getting 'caught'?
if that's the case, just don't give out names, places or dates.. i have been on jwd for over 2 years.
the only way 'they' can catch me is if i give out details on the forum.. so lurkers...come out and get empowered!.

I'm just a bit shy & timid until I get to know people.
I think I was told too often when I was little that "Kids are to be seen not heard."
I also have a bad habit of sticking my foot in my mouth. Over the years I've found it best if I just be quiet. :) -

Please say hello to my wife.
by nicolaou ini've been posting here for quite a long time, so long in fact that it just doesn't feel right that my wife isn't a part of it.
earlier today i created an account for her with the username heron, she'll know why.
i'm not sure if my wife will ever post here but i would feel much more comfortable knowing she is aware that i do.. this is the one post i am going to ask her to read.. so, i'd really appreciate it if you could say hello to my lovely wife.

What was the worst (or funniest) thing you got caught doing at a meeting?
by danfromma inor in service, or just by jws period... me, i was notorious for doodling in my literature.
when i was about 12, i got caught drawing the led zeppelin logo in my bible by the meanest elder in the hall.
my mother wouldn't let me out of the house for about 2 months!

I was at an assembly with my baby - maybe 6 mos old. He got fussy and I was holding him on my lap facing out toward the people in front of us. He projectile vomited (stinky sour milk) on the brother sitting in front of us. It got the back of his head and down the back of his clothes.

Debra, You have a PM.
I agree, Silentlambs.com is an excellent idea.
