Both U.S. and WW showed 'increase' in Memorial attendance from 2010 to 2011. Both showed decrease from 2011 to 2012. Little decreases or increases don't necessarily indicate much in itself. Generally, we will have to watch over more years, like maybe 5 yrs. at least. But hearing reports like noted above is an interesting observance.

local memorial attendance

so i have a friend that is still "in" because of his elderly parents.

he attended the memorial and reported back to me what i thought was encouraging.

we have two congregations in the city i live in.

Gayle

interesting,,for 'U.S.' last year (2012) there was 2.4% less than the previous year (2011). If there is that decrease again for this year, there would have to be aprx. 4 or 5 less per avg. congregation attending. Could happen again at that rate shown by your friend's cong.

WTS action on Conti's case 3/27/2013

by mind blown in

as most suspected, the wts filed their brief, at least it looks that way..... http://appellatecases.courtinfo.ca.gov/search/case/dockets.cfm?dist=1&doc_id=2025979&doc_no=a136641.

it also notes aob in excess of word count limit.. wonder if they did that to buy more time?.

Gayle

Even if the WTS' goal to extend this issue, even having to pay additonal interest (1.6M, appx?), gives them more time to collect plenty more money (or hide the money) and at least holds back for awhile a tsunami of additional pedophile lawsuits (who are waiting to see the result of this case). then.

Something is due; see note.

(so the 'legalese hat dance' continues)

so do I understand, that the 'brief' was not so brief but 'volumes' were sent by the WTS? Now the judge or a group of judges have to read all this and they have to decide 'if' in fact some court error happened in the hearing? Then, what options could the appellate judge group order?

Guess rick simon,,Candace's attorney, will have to 'sing' for us, first, before we can applaud ?

Very Curious, what kind of feedback are you getting from ACTIVE Jehovah's Witnesses on Candace's California Court Victory ?

by Balaamsass in

i am stunned by candace's huge court victory.

it is overdue.

i have been reading comments on jvn, huffington, san jose mercury, nbc, and other sources.

Gayle

I hope for the full success of Ms Conti case. Though, it would probably take many more such cases to effect the WTS. It took many cases for the Catholic Church to come to terms of this kind of prob. Even yet, the Catholic Church prospers and grows..
