Thank you Palm I was wondering if that was the correct address. I think it would be great if we all sent something to that address and let them see an avalanche of affection.

What Can We Do to Show How We Cared about Oompa?
by Band on the Run ini know others have posted on the original thread.
several people, including myself, would like to do something concrete to show our concerns re: his treatment by the jw, and how important he was to all of us here.
i suggested a handwritten note, on behalf of the whole community here, flowers, and perhaps a donation to a charity that helps people get back on their feet.

Look at how proud they were of the brothers in Malawi. The suffering they endured. I am SURE they would simply smugly point out that he was an apostate.
I was wondering if we could blanket the congo/house/business with flowers and "prayers"?

so oompa got df'd this week...
by oompa inno call to invite me to a committee meeting...no notification of deciding i should be df'd....no telling my jw wife of the announcement...not a chance to appeal what i did not even know what was going on...my mini-serve son is devasted....he even researched it....told me to go to page 153-154 of the od book...never heard of it but it is a green hardback given to all who are to be baptized.
wow...the elders broke every rule in this book as to my case.... i have no respect for these men that can take away your jw family without even telling you they are going to.
my jw son has now begged me to meet with my committee...even though there is prob zero chance they can reverse the decision...that chance is from when they let you know...and you have to appeal by letter within 7 days (i cant make this stuff up!!

Oh OUTLAW! This poor man has two young children being indoctrinated against his wishes! Can't you imagine that he does not want to believe they are in the clutches of an organization that does this to people?? He came here for understanding because he is concerned about them.

I disagree and would encourage YOU Viola to edt. I believe NeverAJW needs our support more than many here at this point. He has two children in the cult. Not of his doing. What else can he believe?
This is exactly the moment when we all need to be giving and loving.
We are better than they are.

I keep wishing that oompa was playing a Tom Sawyer "going to my own funeral" joke. I keep waiting for him to post and say "just kidding" and then we could all be really mad and relieved at the same time. He's been alternately making me smile and making me worry about him for years.
me too -
