Steve Lett was at Bethel in '69 already. He was my Book Study Conductor in the Brooklyn Heights Cong. for 6 mos. while I was in "Primary." That picture doesn't look like him. -

The Congregational Make Up Research Project: WTB&TS wants to know you.
by oppostate inwe have a bethel speaker on the english side.
they're pretty regular up here since it's only three and a half hours drive from nyc.. but this is a special kind of visit.. it turns out he's involved in doing a special research project and the christian congregation of jw's wants to know us better.. in order for the broadcasting to address issues more meaningful for families, they want to know the demographic make up of the congregations.. he spoke with the secretary about young single publishers and couples 20-35 y.o.
how are they employed.

Why does a Bethelite need to go to a cong. for that? Can't the WT just send out a questionnaire to the cong. elders to answer that?
Maybe the WT is trying to understand why many (66%?) of that group are leaving the WT and trying to figure out why that is happening? And trying to understand how to improve their "guilt" and other processes to improve on that stat?
What would you say are the answers there with your particular cong.?

How is Japan Bethel now? Size? Have they downsized as other Bethels? Is it taking on some of Australia Bethel's printing recently? -

Fortunately, ex-JWs, former JWs, and relatives, and Internet, the courts and the MEDIA are speeding up their work even faster -

Today's Study - Shun Disfellowshipped Family, Don't Marry Outsiders, Tell On Others!
by Divergent inurghhh... what a disgusting study!7 a conflict of loyalties may arise when a close relative is disfellowshipped.
for example, a sister named anne received a telephone call from her disfellowshipped mother.
the mother wanted to visit anne because she felt pained by her isolation from the family.

Will many JWs who have been relaxing or softening on this shunning issue toward their family members, (inactive, marked, df'd, da'd) in recent times, after today's meeting do a strong flip back into the harsh shunning? I have found this rollercoaster to be common. The GB sometimes find this 'leash' has relaxed and therefore do a 'yank' back to their loyal members. -

WT headquarters leadership are probably asking about his will already. I thought I read he had severe hip(or hips) pain and wouldn't do surgery and wouldn't do because of blood. Though he was in a lot of pain taking a lot of pain meds. Could any of you check on that??

Korean News : CoC in Korean
by AntiEntropy inhi bros.. after my father's publishing his book, "15 questions after 40 years of jw" , many ex-jw bros in korea became motivated to rush to the coc korean project.
however any secular project needs a fund eventhough it's a not-for-profit.
fortunately, a bunch of bros decided to donate generously $300~$7,000 to this unprofitable business.

I see that even WT is admitting no decreases in Korea last couple years. May the decreases continue to increase with the help ex-JWs! I expect the South Koreans are internet savvy.
