  i am wondering if my family is similar to yours... i have 2 sisters and 1 brother.

  my older sister and i were 5 and 7 years old when my parents joined.

  my other sister and brother were "born in".

  i was told they were practically begging those elders and servants who are no longer "being used" to help carry the load once again.

  these people are unbelievable!.

  The Final Nail in the Coffin of your JW Career

  by jookbeard in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i know there has been countless threads on this, some say the paedophile scandal, others say the blood ban, some say the conduct of their elders, others say the petty rules etc.

  but there is usually one thing that seals every one's fate, tips you over the edge,finishes you off.i was fading, very closely to full inactivity, off the book study list, and very sporadic meeting attendance, which took me to the very last time i set foot in my kingdumb hall, this is what happened;.

  it was the memorial of 1994, i hadn't set foot in the place for months, but thought a show at the memorial would keep the wife happy and the elders at bay for a bit longer, i drove to the hall being careful not to get there too early(the wife was already there and had saved me a seat) i walked up to my seat about mid way in the hall so a lot could see me, it was packed probably about 200 there, as i sat down ( about 3/4 mins to go) a sister in front of me turned around and said"we haven't seen you in a long time!

  how are the dubs reacting to swine flu?

  by highdose in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  i'm just curious as the offical govement advice about swine flu is to stay away from public areas if poss and if you have swine flu to stay from everyone full stop!.

  but my experiance of jw's is that they would go to the hall wether they were infectious or not.

  many is the time i've sat behind someone coughing or spluttering away!
