  Why do the GB need a new Bethel compound if the end is so close? Here is the "official" answer

  by sir82 in

  as most of us know, the society is spending 10's of millions of dollars on a giant, state of the art, secluded bunker country club headquarters in very remote, isolated warwick ny.. the question that "some" have is, why?

  if armageddon is coming "very soon", why go to all that time & effort & expense?

  why have thousands of jws dedicating their time to this massive effort instead of the "lifesaving ministry"?.

  my wife is filipina and i ge the impression they are a bit different from other jws in regard to shunning family - my sister-in-law is df'd but the family does not exclude her but she does sort of oerpate ont eh margtin of the family.

  i wonder wheterh there are any differences with filipino jws.

  i get the feeling that less of them fade or leave voluntarily once baptized but weopudl like some confirmation of whether that is correct..

  JOHANNESBURG | Sat Aug 10, 2013 2:34pm BST

  (Reuters) - Former South African President Nelson Mandela's health is improving daily and he is now able to sit up for minutes at a time, his youngest daughter told state broadcaster SABC.

  The 95-year-old has been in a Pretoria hospital for two months for treatment of a recurrent lung infection. The government said late last month his condition remained critical but was showing improvement.

  Zindzi Mandela told SABC on Friday her father was becoming increasingly alert.

  "He's fine. Tata now manages to sit up, like now he sits up in a chair for a few minutes in a day, every day you know he becomes more alert and responsive. Tata is determined not to go anywhere anytime soon, I cannot stress this enough," she said, referring to him by the Xhosa word for father.

  "He just doesn't have the strength of a man, he has the strength that is beyond anything that can be explained. Because even now with the challenges to his health, he somehow manages to bounce back when everyone assumes this is the end."

  Mandela's victory in the first multiracial elections in 1994 marked the end of the apartheid system. Four years earlier, he was released after 27 years in prison under white minority rule, 18 of them at the notorious Robben Island penal colony.

  Long serving pioneer no longer has hours quota to stay on the list...

  by NVR2L8 in

  2. friends

  a family member visited us this past weekend and said that my 80 years old mother was recently told she no longer has to meet the annual hour quota to remain on the pioneer list.

  "what a loving provision from the brothers" were my sister's exact words.

  "mom was so stressed out with having to get her hours in every month" are you freaking kidding me?

  Since sisters can't be elders or MS, the only title they can have is Pioneer.
