what began as a day of joy finding out that one of my lifelong friends had her baby, turned into a nightmare when her brother called me to let me know she had passed away after birth.

i was in shock and didn't ask how.

What a tragedy, so sorry! The policy is so wrong. This is institutional killing.

This is to implement the use of tablets in JW preaching. To fix the hick ups. "Brother, we see you don't follow the counsel for using the video's on the God giffen jw.org".

as i mention before i was going to move to california when i left bethel, to get way from debbie's parents.

so i thought the best thing to do was to go to the service department and ask them were they "needed help" in the bay area of northern california.

this shows you how totally delusional i really was at the time.

This joke a CO told us when they visit us for a dinner:

"A sister came to me, she was worried about her son. Brother CO, what do I have to do?

He answered "You can test your son, put a barby doll, a litle sport car toy and a bible on the table. Let him choose and tell me at the next meeting what he did. I will tell you what he will be, a publisher or a pioneer".

The next meeting the sister was very upset. "What did your son choose, sister? He took the barby, the sport car and the bible".

The CO answered "don't worry sister, your son wil become a bethelite".

My Bthel Experince Part 19 The Last Chapter..(really) Bethel Overseers

by new boy in

there were other people who either killed themselves or tried to kill themselves while they were at "the house of god.

one person who did kill himself was richard wheelock, press room overseer ......he jumped out of a window at the watchtower farm one day.

it seemed, he was never quite the same after his wife "willy" died.

must have been mid to late 1970s.. it was when they still published the speakers' names on the light-blue circuit assembly programs.. i was a child sitting in the audience at ashland avenue's circuit assembly venue.

i loved that place with it's own basement cafeteria and baptism pool with a big jesus getting baptized mural behind it.. samuel herd was giving the talk.

my child self could only remember my father pointing him out on the program.

Maybe these GB members are not happy now, they must feel presure, they have to manage a big corporation.

No more reporting time for field service!!!

by Khaleesi in

so at last i am in my next step of my fade, this month is the first month i did not turned in any hours.

i received a text from our group leader an ms & i told him i didn't have any to report, then of course it got bumped up to the elder & i text him back i have no hours to report for december.

i came to this decision when reading many posters here about the yearbook stats, i do not want & refused to contribute to this organization "boosting" numbers for their glorious purposes, after the rc in australia they do not deserve for me to give them a "production" report of what i do for god, no more.

Gorbatchov

Reminds me of our fading. At my last report I wrote the message that I no longer would report. Never heard a comment about that message. A few time the elders asked for my report, the last time the elder asked me first and then said "... and by the way condoleances with the dead of your grandmother".
