keep them coming Truthseeker, I still have the original list saved and it certainly surprised me even before the quickfire sell off of KH's and mergers, I even found out that my ex wife's KH was merged (disbanded) several year ago in a suburb of South West London, it makes me chuckle with the new name changes, I presume this is a legal requirement, who are they kidding!

by StarryNight9 ini was commenting on another thread about how local kh attendance is down.
memorial attendance was also way down and the circuit assembly had hundreds less people than what is typical.
my jw family has even mentioned it.

I wonder how much profit, job opportunities, Ebay and Amazon,PayPal,Facebook,Google,Apple, etc has created during the last few years, I'd say billions of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$, aren't some newer companies being valued at trillion plus recently? not the sess pit and forecasts of doom that they think the world is heading to, I wonder where they get their info from? Forrest Gump Lett? Tony Tightpants Morris, clearly very enlightened

Funny occurrences
by Freedom rocks inwhat were some funny experiences you had of things that happened during talks at the meetings?.
a few of mine:.
- a brother had dyed his hair before his talk and it was raining heavily when he arrived at the hall and the dye was running down his face during his talk and his skin went more and more grey as the black dye ran down it.

back in the early 1990's there was a service meeting item when an elder interviewed a kid who attended a local school he was about 11 at the time , the brother was telling the audience about the breakdown in discipline in schools the drugs problems etc so he goes " so Christoper tell me about the drugs problems in your school that you have have to deal with"
Christopher responds " yes drugs are a problem in our school a lot of the pupils have taken to smoking herbs!"
the hall just erupted.

Dis-fellowshipped For Not Going To The Kingdom Hall You Are Assigned Too
by new boy inmy parents started attending the glendora congregation in 1961. my mother had a strange feeling about the congregation.
there was something going on there that just didn’t feel right.
there was a huge exodus going on of people leaving this congregation’s kingdom hall too.

Adding insult to injury when the WT kicks out a congregation from their hall
by nowwhat? innot only does the organization confiscate the hall the congregation owns.
but then the former congregants are told to continue to pay for utilities and they are still responsible for upkeep and maintenance.
so they still have to cut the grass etc.

How many JDubs would believe this ridiculous statement?
by Sour Grapes ina circuit overseer or a member of the gibbering body is giving a talk about demonism and he says the following, "there was an elder in a congregation in california who let his 8-year-old daughter watch disney movies that involved witches, gremlins, magic, and sorcery.
many may feel that they are harmless movies and are just entertainment.
well, the 8-year-old daughter actually brought a blue smurf doll to the public talk and watchtower study.
