It looks like it is teenagers doing teenager things. Looks like one dfing that I know of. I didn't ask around for details but it was mentioned by the elders during the meeting this morning.

Decrease of numbers in Jehovah's Witnesses via Deaths, DFings, or Turning Inactive

by flipper in

jw
friends

so i'm sure a good number of us saw the chart that i believe the poster splash put on another thread of figures since 1990 regarding how many baptized and % of increase each year .

i started analyzing it ( and i know some referred to it briefly on the other thread ) and guessing of reasons the % of increase didn't match the number of newly baptized.

and of course common sense tells us that either jw's leave the cult each year through death, fading into inactivity, or getting dfed.

I personally think the numbers are severely fudged. Where I live a dozen or so congregations have folded and we have amalgamated with another circuit.

20 years ago we had 1000 at our circuit assembly. Now with the amalgamation we have 1100. It's in decline and they won't admit it.

Gas prices today & the book study

by LevelThePlayingField in

we all remember, one of the main reasons for removing the bookstudy was the high gas prices, well, have you looked at the gas prices today?

nationwide, the lowest is about $1.65, the highest is about $2.67.

isn't that right about the same gas prices as when they cancelled the bookstudy in the first place?

hoser

It was a poorly supported meeting and it was hard to find someone who would have it in their home.

One Reason Why I Could Never Again be an Elder

by Nicholaus Kopernicus in

there appears to be several crises inflicting themselves upon the wtbts all at once.

the crises are likely related....financial difficulties - hence the increasing publicity given to contributing money.

reduced production - probably related to above (literature and building principally).

I'm General manager of a corporation and we carry errors and omission insurance for the board of directors. It's fairly cheap only a hundred bucks a year per board member.

Elders School 2015: Model Judicial Committee Videos: Appeal, Reinstatement, Making Recommendations and messages from the GB

by hildebrando in

5 new videos kingdom ministry school 2015:.

judging with insight/appeal committee.

judging with insight/reinstatement committee.

hoser

So this the same guy that got aquarium girl pregnant. I guess his appeal didn't go so well and he wants to be reinstated.

This religion is big on judging and small on love.

I can't wait for these videos in English.

This shows they are flying by the seat of their pants and have no real plan. They just revamped the form a little while back. Now they are doing it again.
