New arrangement for field service?
by Zico ini don't know if this is a worldwide thing because i didn't go the meeting where the arrangement was announced, but it's being done in my congregation anyway.
during those 6 months the member assigned to the pioneer is meant to make time to work with the pioneer as much as possible, so they can strengthen each other.
the idea is meant to be that eventually each member of the congregation will get a go.

i'm surprise by the fact that the program has not been effective in some areas. its going to be the first time that i'm going to experience this but my excuse is that i'm going to school and i am working at the same time. I'll keep up updated on it and see how it goes? LOL.

Share one or two interesting things about you we probably didn't know
by Gopher inwe have such an interesting group of people from around the world on this board.
it might be interesting to have a thread where you discuss a hobby, something interesting that happened in the past, somewhere you've been, etc.. not deep, dark confessions - just interesting stuff.. .
* i have travelled into all 48 american states that are not named alaska or hawaii.. * for the past few years, i have had a slight walking impairment due to a form of arthritis known as ankylosing spondylitis.

Hi from a newbie here
by tere1998 ini joined this site about a week ago and have enjoyed reading all the posts and chatter.
i was raised in the jws, baptized at 17 (didn't know any better) but once i got married and had a baby, i just didn't have enough time to go to all the meetings during the week.
we got the "shepherding calls" and pretty much were looked down on for not going to all the meetings.

Were The Sisters Submissives or "Jezebels" In Your Hall?
by minimus inin my experiences, i saw many women that really took a back seat to anything a "brother" had to say.
i was always amazed as to how some sisters were sooooooooooooo submissive!
they really stood out from the "jezebel" types.. if you were a "sister", how were you treated and how did you respond?.

in my hall it is pretty ethnic what i mean is haitian/black/african,. the sisters who were my age like 17-25. were submissive in a way (poineer,and give talks but all of us persused higher education). but allways did things so people won't notice or make them look conspicious but the matter of fact was that everyone notice i.e. hair clothing accessories, the way you talked to all the brothers and sister in the congo etc. Starting about 3 years until this point their has been about 5 disfellowships and 1 reproof (two were male). it was kind of sad because most of them were sex related and that is zero tolerance. In our hall the young sisters are like the prize posession in the hall and we are also looked at as example to those who are comming in the truth. long story short SUBMISSIVE SISTERS BY DAY JEZEBELS BY NIGHT!!!!!!
