Have u ever partaken of the memorial, though not annointed?
by *jeremiah* ini went to an apostafest over 10 years ago or so and different exdubs got up and told their story of leaving the wts.
one guy in particular, who became christian, and who was disfellowshipped, told his story about how he went to the memorial and decided to partake in eating of the bread and wine.
most christians believe the bread and wine is meant for believers and is a commandment to be done in remembrance of christ's death.

For those who pray...
by *jeremiah* ini personally believe prayer is powerful and i'm sure that i'm not the only one on here who believes that.. so, how about starting a prayer list?.
just list your friends or family still in the borg and myself and others will pray for them to be enlightened to the jw's yoke of slavery.
of course if there are any other prayer requests too, just put it down.. my family:.

District Assembly Games
by *jeremiah* ini left the jw's when i was 17, so most of these games were played during teenage years.. here are some things i remember doing with my friends during the assembly:.
1. the last clap.
after a brothers talk or when "new light" emerged and the entire stadium would erupt with clapping we would see if one of us could be the very last person in the entire stadium to clap.. 2. the laugh game.

Any information on number of JW's who have left?
by *jeremiah* inso i'm curious if there is any accurate information out there as far as the number of people who have left the jw's.
maybe annually or per decade or whatever.. you have those who are disfellowshipped, those who are disassociated, and then those who are never baptised who just kind of walk away.
i'm sure "the society" has these numbers, yet, i'm sure they don't come off of them.
