  Frome (pronounced Froom) in Somerset have moved as a complete congregation from Welshmill Lane in Frome (Charity commission shows this as being their address in 2016) to share Midsomer Norton's Kingdom hall in Waterloo Rd, Midsomer Norton. This is 8 miles away.

  The Midsomer Norton address is shown for both congregations on Jborg.

  These congregations are both presently in different circuits and under new arrangements I believe Midsomer Norton is being moved out of its old Avon Circuit.

  Well...It's 2018 and still no ''Armageddon''

  1972 : we started studying with the jehovah's witnesses when my uncle became an elder and put fear into our family that armageddon was close.

  1974 : my mom, my brother and i were all baptized after all the convention talks and watchtower magazine articles that 1975 would likely end this system of things.

  1999 : being told that the year 2000 was going to mark the 6 thousand years of mans existence and that the 1000 year kingdom in the new paradisewould come in the year 2000.

  The end is imminent, eh Tony - now what does your very own RNWT say?

  (Luke 21:7, 8) . . .Then they questioned him, saying: “Teacher, when will these things actually be, and what will be the sign when these things are to occur?” 8 He said: “Look out that you are not misled, for many will come on the basis of my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The due time is near.’ Do not go after them.

  Conspiracy Theorists never seem to believe that cannabis is harmful. I think that they are being lied to by THEM.

  Did You Go To Meetings in Very Inclement Weather?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  living in new england means having lots of snow and cold.

  elders were very reluctant to cancel or reschedule a meeting due to the weather.

  i lived 3 towns away from the kingdom hall and if it was icy and treacherous my vote would always be to cancel the meeting....and forget about rescheduling!.

  I have a single issue copy of that Watchtower January 1st 1989 (Britain - English) with the wording "in our 20th century." - exactly as you show.

  The CD-Rom is exactly as the bound volume you show. - "in our day."

  Love the Awake 1968! Brilliant find.

  What is the month and date of that Awake? Anyone have the English version?
