News Which UK J.W.'s Won't Get in their Kigdom Ministry!
by The Searcher ina source tells me the following: .
for shropshire uk by the name of anthony manning has been removed and judicially reproved.
portishead congregation in north somerset is being merged or disbanded on sept 1st 2015 due to "aging elders, poor attendance, decrepit kingdom hall and landslip" - of course the suspicion is wt just wants to sell the hall off.

Canadian branch getting rid of their trucks and drivers
by wannaexit ina recent letter to the elders outlined the new arrangement for delivering literature to the congregations.
the canadian branch will be downsizing by eliminating drivers and trucks and utilizing commercial carriers to bring the boxes of monthly literature .
more outsourcing and more lay offs.. the funny thing about it is that they want to have the literature delivered to various private homes of the rank and file rather than have the literature delivered to the kingdom hall.

yes problemaddict thrift is good but the main reason why they are trying to cut back is the same reason that they got rid of district overseers some years back, shortage of money -

If they got rid of all the old teaching books they wouldnt have anything to fill the trolleys up with,one whole trolley was full of books printed in 2006 and one book was printed in 1998 -

Yes i go to lots of carts in different citys and its all about saving money any way they can. Giving away piles of nine year old teaching books,trying to get the general public to go on line rather than take things in print not only do thay save the money for the paper and ink but also the food that the people at the print works eat and the cost of distribution.If there are 50 people that work in the print room and help to pick and pack the booklets if they have $10s worth of food each per week thats $500 in total -

by Lemonp inas the shepherd the flock book is now in the public domain, if the .org decides to create a new manual, how soon will it be leaked?.
this is mostly a question for wifibandit, but anyone else who may know is welcome to answer.
