Long years ago there was a professed "annointed" "sister", divorced, raising two foster "children". Children is in quotes because they were actually well over age 18 but because they were severely learning disabled they received disability income checks which, of course, went to the sister. At the time of her divorce (husband "went apostate") the court wanted to place the two boys elsewhere but she went to court and cried that they were her whole life and an exception was made to the two-parent rule in force at that time.
This woman's house (rented from a brother at a very discounted rate) became a crash pad for all the unstable people in the local congregations. Every troubled teen, every unhappily single person and a few unhappily married people hung out there 24/7. The place was a pig sty but that didn't stop the elders from appointing this woman a pioneer. After her personal car group finished their daily McMinistry this woman would yell "Home? Or Roam?" and they'd take off to visit various congregation members just in time for free lunches and an afternoon of counting time on the heads of any unbaptized members of the family. Sister Annointed was exceedingly large. Once she visited our home unannounced and uninvited. When she parked herself on the brand new sofa she literally ripped the upholstery and broke the springs of a custom made, very expensive piece of furniture! No apology, no offer to pay for repair. She did, however, mention the need to support the pioneers with material goods including a living room set so she could have the field service meetings at her place!
The sister claimed that after Armageddon JW's would be sent out to populate other planets so she would match up the unstable people from the KH (three congregations met there), some of whom actually married...and quickly divorced. She had a hand in breaking up one KH marriage and then matching the DF'd ex-husband with another woman in the congregation (who was promptly DF'd). So there in the same hall sat the ex-husband, the ex-wife, the new wife and her two children from a previous marriage, and the couple who got married just so they'd be ready to populate Mars. It was wild trying to figure out who was in good standing for a while, things were changing so fast! It was all OK with Sister Annointed though; no matter how the elders tried to keep her in check she resisted and told them "When I get my powers....".
The last straw for me where this sister was concerned was when she showed up at the Circuit Assembly Hall where they were selling off the old tables, chairs, and dishes (food service had just been stopped). She loaded her car, then told the brother in charge of collecting the payments to send the bill to her Father in the heavens, and drove away.
If she wasn't the craziest maybe it was the brother who would occasionally go off his meds and think he was Jesus Christ. Once he walked out on the field at the District Convention and made it almost all the way to the speaker's platform before the attendants even noticed him. Sad for him 'cause when he was in better shape he was a fine person, a really decent guy, according to my son who had many a good conversation with him.
