It probably is a new campaign since it was sent to service committee. I still think it might be related to their new Jesus series, maybe an invitation to watch the series on JW.borg. Like someone else mentioned the secrecy could just be a way to get the congregations all excited, similar to the release of the new bible in 2013.

U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky) just make a video about this Davos guys and the "danger of world government...".
So, this is the biblical beast that the world powers give their authority at the end for 'one hour'
Problem solved !It is odd to me that some events do line up with predictions made in the old Revelation book but JWs don't talk about them.

Troubling things are definitely going on lately and people should be concerned about the general direction of technology in our lives. The fact that large corporations and increasingly disconnected politicians are guiding the process is alarming. However, connecting it to an ancient book and some sort of "mark of Satan" is a bit much.

Thanks, everybody for the kind words! We are free from this religion but still have a lot of things to figure out. Might be hard but we're definitely not heading back to JW land. LOL

Update to the update: This is the first year we didn't attend the memorial either live or on zoom. My wife disassociated when confronted by the elders about some statements made to others. I have been avoiding the elders and am now officially inactive. Her mom and couple others in her family still talk to her regularly but the others have distanced themselves. My family is ignoring me except for when they need something or to post passive aggressive FB messages. We are adjusting, right now we have zero social life or any clue how we would go about getting one.

Important Update: My wife is also awake now and believes that WT is a cult! She has been watching exjw experiences on youtube during the pandemic and telling her family that the religion is fake! -

Jw spokesman Says door to door preaching not coming back!
by nowwhat? inhttps://youtu.be/uaaztatkhkg.

If they did discontinue door to door work, it would need to be replaced by some other form of witnessing. Although most JWs don't like the door to door work, the idea of witnessing is so ingrained that just dropping it would trigger major cognitive dissonance. They would have a mass exodus of people leaving.

Tonight's Meeting
by Studyover induring tonight's meeting the brother seemed to read out something along the lines of "you may be helping a poor sister who you think may be struggling, but in turn that sister may be getting financial assistance from the government.
it is always best to stick to jehovah's arrangement in these matters so that help can get to those who most need it, including the worldwide work".
i think it may have been an article about social media platforms initially and how they should be avoided and then this was mentioned.

They did mention "the arrangement" which basically means let individuals in either the person's field service group come up with the funds or if that fails the congregation. Only in the rarest cases would the world wide work funds be used to actually help a brother or sister.

I bet JWs would be willing to donate more to keep the situation as it is now - not physically going to meetings, no door-to-door, etc.
If they go all online they'll lose a lot of members, they need the tight group structure to keep people in line.
