The invite should have a kingdom hall address with a time of the memorial on it. If you go to jborg and look up "find a meeting" - type in your street - you should be able to find the congregation(s) that go to the hall on the invite.

17How do you find out which kh territory you're in?
by rebel8 inthese douche bags left a memorial invitation in my door today, after i have already told them point blank, "do not come to this property ever again," which was months after my trespassing letter.. how dumb can people possibly be?
is there such a thing as an iq below zero?.
so i want to send a 2nd letter with the tract ripped up inside, so i will have a 2nd receipt showing another attempt to get them to leave me alone.. how do i know which hall's territory i am in?

Emotionally very ill but can't face consequences of leaving
by Isambard Crater ini'm a new member so wanted to say 'hi'.
i live in the u.k, was born in, fell away as an unbaptised publisher, got baptised in my 30s for reasons i'm retrospectively unsure of, and lost my faith about five years ago around the time of the original a.r.c.
now, being unable to leave is making me physically, emotionally and mentally ill.. i'm not strong enough to da and live with the family consequences, and despite having several good friends outside the faith, none of them could support me in an active way as such.

Fade more quickly to minimum first.
Why do two hours a week for goodness sake?
Why attend all the meetings?
I only attend for peace with close family. We have a don't ask don't tell stand off sort of agreement. I show my face at ministry once a month and report 2 to 4 hours. If elders ask to shepherd me or go propaganda preaching I politely but firmly refuse. If they pressed (they leave me to myself now) harder I politely and firmly tell them I'm content where I am and do not wish to join them in the ministry.
When they asked why I would say I have private and personal concerns which I am not prepared to share with anyone except Jehovah (yeah right, like he exists or cares).
If they press further I say we all have private things between ourselves and our creator so please leave me alone.
IF YOU WANT TO FADE you must shut up and be firm about it. Smile, laugh, put on a brave face but do not say anything they can use against you.
Best wishes.

And of course Penygraig (above) - when closed and converted to a KH - was trumpeted in the Awake! article below as evidence of Babylon's waters drying up.

One [chapel] that was not listed, in Penygraig, was converted many years ago into a Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses for the flourishing Rhondda Congregation.

*** g96 9/8 p. 31 Why the Chapels Are Closing ***
” One that was not listed, in Penygraig, was converted many years ago into a Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses for the flourishing Rhondda Congregation.
As the Bible foretold regarding “Babylon the Great,” the world empire of false religion, its symbolic waters, the support of the peoples, are drying up in many parts of the world. Soon the political elements of the world will turn against religion as they “carry out [God’s] thought” to devastate false religion, which has universally blasphemed Jehovah God’s name and purpose.—Revelation 17:5, 15-17.

Heads will certainly roll when the local elders get on the case.

If RO is a gay non-JW and yet supporting their policies then isn't he a bit like a Trurkey voting for Xmas?
Is EdenOne Dolly Parton? And if so is it only between the hours of 9 til 5?

Words for the Day; please share

in my job, i work with words and wrangle them into shape, well, in a manner of speaking.
one word might be mistaken for another, a word with either a similar or identical sound.

Something in the air this season...
by babygirl30 ini have had some ultra weird exchanges with some existing jws these past 2 months that have me caught off guard (which is rare for me) - but overall just odd.. 1. i was out at a happy hour with some coworkers, and a woman whom i used to be friends with in another congregation came in with her husband.
background: her kids, myself, and her best friends son - were all close friends!
so we all were around this woman and her bff on a regular basis.

Well these people have wonderful David as their given example of someone who Jehovah "loves" and "forgives" in a large way.
If the murdering, adulterating, census taking David gets a free pass then why can't they?
