just got a phone call from an older sister saying that a couple that got re-assigned from bethel 4 years ago to live at their kh apartment as special pioneers, just received a letter saying "as of january 2016, your special pioneer assignment will be discontinued".. they live in a south miami kh(snapper creek congregation).. this couple had only served in bethel for 15 years before they were sent out into the special pioneer work.
they are now in their mid 50's and the sister said that they have to find part time jobs to support themselves.. the older sister (does not have a pc or internet), says that the couple are just devastated!

Tell us how you really feel!
I wonder if that jw card and trinket company could start producing "I told you so!" cards?
NEW FROM MINISTRY NO IDEAS:-
Has someone you know been sent to the field to increase the shout of praise to Jah's great name? Why not send them a card of commiseration? For every dollar you spend with us we will send one cent to a "booted bethelite" of your choice!
Minimum order $100.00
grew up in east la in a bad neighborhood to a black mother and white father.
i never knew my father because he died in a car accident when i was a few weeks old.
my mother converted as a jw soon after when two sisters came to her door and offered her comfort, which was something she needed.
I understand you wanting to look after your mum (mom to you americans!) but you can send her a cheque (check to you americans) every so often when you make big!

Luke 14:29 says onlookers would ridicule someone who built a tower without the necessary funds available ...
Am I unkind to ridicule?
being raised a catholic we had lots of crosses around the house.
when my family converted to this cult they were all removed and destroyed in case they had demons in them lol but at this juncture in my life i do not even know if jesus as the way he is portrayed in the bible was real.
yes a man named jesus did live and die 2000 years ago and probably on a cross but he was definitely not the son of god.
do you think the yearbooks will stop showing negative information as the numbers stagnate or even drop?
... just received!
london bethel: last year a couple in their fifties were laid off from bethel and made special pioneers.
in january they will be demoted to regular pioneers.
a single sister in her 40s and her two single daughters were visiting my mom.
i would say her daughters are in their early 20s.
my mom got sleepy and we put her to bed but the three sisters stayed to finish their drinks..
according to the guardian, the confucius peace prize has been awarded this year to one robert gabriel mugabe.

i suppose i could've put this thread in either the entertainment section or joke section instead.

Maybe not right now I was thinking future - 5 to 10 years? And is "Pakistan" telling the whole truth? Governments have been known to lie.
