  Indeed. A "Kreisrat" is a member of the county council. But of course it must be convinced, though she is convicted also ;)

  Tuesday, the Chemnitz district court heard the appeal of a 56-year old woman from Aue. She is a convinced member of Jehovah's Witnesses - and got to know the alledged head of the gang at a meeting of the denomination. Her husband - brother of the former County Councillor - also belonged to the religious association and obvioulsy tried to recruit persons for the network there.

  It is this article:

  http://www.freiepresse.de/LOKALES/ERZGEBIRGE/Krankenkassen-Betrug-Ehemaliger-Kreisrat-verstrickt-artikel8455900.php

  It says:

  Am Dienstag verhandelte das Landgericht Chemnitz die Berufung einer 56-jährigen Frau aus Aue. Sie ist überzeugtes Mitglied der Zeugen Jehovas - und lernte den vermeintlichen Kopf der Bande auf einer Versammlung der Glaubensgemeinschaft kennen. Auch der Mann - der Bruder des Ex-Kreisrates - gehörte zur Gemeinschaft und versuchte offenbar, dort Personen für das Netzwerk zu rekrutieren.

  Translated:

She is a convicted member of Jehovah's Witnesses - and got to know the alledged head of the gang at a meeting of the denomination.

  Besides, there are some apostates around who know the sister personally.

  i was talking with a jw i've known a long time and the topic of da new order came up.

  she mentioned how nice it will be when all animals are at peace.

  i asked why they had camouflage and defensive and offensive weapons if they were to always get along?

  If no one eats mice in paradise, one mouse will become to 1.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000 mice within 10 years. As of today, snakes would eat many of those, but if no animal will harm any other than no one will eat mice.

  Well, at least that one pioneer sister got 9 months on parole. Her picture is in Germany's largest tabloid newspaper (at least in the web edition) and she is called "Gauner-Rosi" ("Rogue Rosemary") there.

  Multiple Jehovah's Witnesses are involved in a health insurance fraud in Germany, with a total amount of loss of ca. 1,3 million Euro.

  A 56-year old pioneer 'met the head of the gang at a meeting of the religious group'. He hired her for nursing his grandfather for a monthly salary of 4200 €. After two days, she reported sick - and health insurance had to pay sickness allowance (basically the same amount that she would have earned). After two weeks, she was fired, whereupon she got unemployment benefit. News says that her husband was also a Jehovah's Witness and 'tried to recruit more members for the network in the congregation'.

  They played this game multiple times, with several bogus firms etc. Officials finally noticed it when one women was 'hired' for a monthly salary of 134,000 € and got sick immediately after starting, which would have brought her ca. 170,000 € sickness allowance.

  by mP in

  the bible presents him as humble with limit means.

  i always wondered how a man with a travelling companion of two like timothy managed to knnow or hear about all his churches.

  how exactly does the troubles of corinth manage to find paul when hes over in judea or maybe somewhere in what we call turkey ?

  There have already been field service report slips in Paul's day.

  Really, when I left I had a discussion with the elders and told them that it would be unbiblical to report field service hours. One elder replied that there must have been field service reports in Paul's day, otherwise he would not have been able to give counsel to the congregations.

  i have to practice and get better at parallel parking or i am never going to get my license.

  i can get the car in the space but i just can't seem to get it out of there without crossing the lines where your not suppose to go.

  when you cross the lines it means if there was a car there you would have bumped it.

  Actually that Watchtower Wayback archive is in French, but has a lot of English content.

  It seems to contain every PDF and MP3 that was ever made available anywhere. Including WTLIB 2012. Way more than in my archive.

  Interesting quote from the DC

  by GoodGuyGreg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don't know if anybody else has mentioned this, but i'm currently at a dc in sweden, and this morning, during the symposium on different kinds of service, it was mentioned that 40% of baptisms are the result of informal witnessing.

  if you add the number of baptisms of children of jw parents to this, how many are left that are baptized as a result of the door-to-door work?

  doesn't sound very effective at all....

  An average witness in Germany takes roughly 100 years to convert ONE person. (27 million hours for 2600 baptisms, ca. 9 hours/month)

  But if 40 % of these are through informal witnessing, so that only 1236 of the 2600 baptisms are through the regular work, it would be be 166 years for an average publisher to convert one person in the regular ministry.

  Given that 90 % of the baptized persons are children of witnesses (so that only 10 % are outsiders and 60 % of these 10 % were gathered in the door-to-door work), it would be 1660 years to convert ONE person through the door-to-door ministry.
