my spies tell me that the attendance for hellaby this last sunday was only 600.. that's all i know.
i imagine some on here have perhaps some more insights into why.
however, it seems rather low, don't you think?.
I know Hellaby. Easily would seat 1,000.
This is a pure guess and speculation. Perhaps the circuit that attended is 20 congs x 80 publishers so equals about 1600 pubishers. So too big for one assembly so they divide it in two. So in theory 800 per session.
Apathy could easily drop this into the 600's.
Any football matches in Sheffield that weekend to distract? Oh yes - Sheffield Wednesday vs Barnsley in the Championship league - local match and all that.
hello everyone, my wife wants nothing to do with my awakening.
every time i try explaining something she tells me she doesn't want to hear it.
i believe she's afraid of learning something she's not ready for.
Oh that there was a magic bullet!
I feel your pain.

Looking at berrygerry's (thank you) jborg graph I note a couple of interesting points.
There is a high-ish plateau throughout 2013 - anything to do with the hoopla about the new 2013 revised bible and beamed in meetings from HQ?
Then a drop followed by an all time peak at August 2014 - the big hoopla 100 years conventions - so might the traffic be to do with these?
Then an inexorable drop to a low point now with a slight blip upwards for April 2017 - maybe because that co-relates to the Russia legal ban on jw's? Also this drop is when the GB showed its collective ugly mug on jborg TV!

Looking forward to hearing about it.
Don't forget - goatees, bandannas and sticks and a large inflatable helium filled seven headed dragon.
As per Revelation book pics.
for those who don't know, asexual is someone who feels no sexual desire for other people.
they may often want the companionship of a relationship but with no benefits.
what would the jws view be of a jw dating an asexual worldly person?
Two things ... Worldly Person. Opposite Sex.
Here is the order of things.
1. Counsel.
Then depending whose feathers are ruffled
2. Whispered counsel to others to avoid you then possibly "Marking" for walking disorderly.
3. As mentioned - if you have a snooze on their sofa overnight and the "police" know about it then judicial. They may us their new catch-all "brazen conduct" to do the dirty.
this is a video from down with the tower.

I have in my hand the 2016 yearbook which shows 2,187 congs for the 2015 service year.
2015 peak publishers 165,754 ave 163,871
our co-ordinator put his hand up and commented saying that people who go on about how depressed or anxious they are just need to stop giving in to impulses and show more self control without letting their emotions rule their lives.. if anyone from the media, a government agency or some other public body heard a comment like that, they'd have a hard time exercising self control over the rubbish this elder spouted, which my friends and family with genuine depression found insulting..
He would have done well to "exercise self-control" in his answering and show some patience towards the depressed.

crime.
daniel macias said.. investigators learned that ramos was an elder at a jehovah’s witnesses church in the 4000 block of west mckinley avenue.
there, he met a teen girl and her family three years ago.. .
Fisherman, have you pre-studied your WT for tomorrow? Self-control is the subject for indoctrination.
Does your posting (your drivel) on here demonstrate self-control according to the Governing Body of your religion?
when does the number of memorial partakers get released for 2017. i was wondering if the number will surpass 20k.
You are a star wifibandit! Thank you very much for all you do and to all your sources.
Mind you I wonder if the figure will be published this year? No more yearbook gives "them" more opportunity to hide unpalatable numbers.
when i left the jobos i went to different churches, depending on where i lived at the time.
i still believed in god and jesus at the time.. i was beginning to feel that there was actually no god but continued with the delusion as it comforted me.. the church i went to had some that claimed they could speak in tongues.
i suspected this was just an attention seeking device and that they were just spouting gibberish to appear special.. i went to a church morning breakfast.
Peter needed a crutch. Pun intended.
