the religious order of jehovah's witnesses has provided a "life estate" for them.they can live in this townhouse until they are deceased or choose to move away and in either case the ownership becomes entirely the property of jehovah's witnesses.
When Ewart Chitty was outed from the GB and Bethel he was sent back to London. He lived at Mill Hill and worked in a back office. He was assigned to a local congregation where he was liked. A late friend of mine who was in the congregation often commented how Chitty was such a lovely humble brother, you would never imagine he had been on the GB!
I suspect nobody knew anything about his personal life or why he was back in London. Does the average JW know anything about AMIII?

Is the policy that if an anointed one sins or for some reason needs to be removed or something they can’t just be demoted to other sheep with an earthly hope?
That is correct, eternal life on earth is not a runner up prize to heaven.
I knew a sister, one of the anointed who fell away in the 1940/50's. When her son died in tragic circumstances in the 60's she returned to the organisation. At first she did not partake but was told by the CO that she should partake for the reason above, She continued to partake until her death years later.

Whatever happened with AMIII he will have to have a better deal than did Raymond Franz. They simply cannot afford to have him writing articles and books or appearing on TV as an apostate.
As the saying goes "He knows where the bodies are buried!"

i remember when i was "in" the org.

the org. had a ridiculous Public Talk Outline defending the Genesis Flood Myth.
I gave that talk back in the 1960's. The really sad part is that I actually believed it!

this was the 1963 assembly at twickenham.
i recall the wt deciding no more camping after this due to "immorality" having taken place.. https://youtu.be/lhcl-13dyne.
Yes I was there. I worked all day as a volunteer then went back to the camp site and did guard patrol. My wife was also there but we didn't know each other then, she stayed in the marquee on site.
Eight days! It's a struggle to cope with just three short days now. Sessions used to finish late in the evening, struggling to read your song book.

new wt october 2023....first an article remembering 1923....they make changes, the had a "prayer, praise and testimony weekly meeting".. after an study article about obey, specially paragraph 18.. i have a wild guess, next year, just one weekly meeting for the borg..
I could see the WT Society going to a single meeting per week, probably 2 hours in length just like we used to do.
This could be Saturday morning/afternoon/evening, Sunday likewise. Or they may allow congregations to choose their own day and time. As for the public, when did any walk into a KH? Any 'private' notifications could be circulated on the Congregation Gossip What'sApp site.
One KH could serve for plenty of congregations depending on travelling distances.
My only question is how do the WT Society benefit from this? Other than the sale of a few KH's which is a one time sale of appreciating assets.

After the chart was discontinued we had a small form which was filled in each month and placed on the KH notice board. As with the chart it was the responsibility of the Assistant Congregation Servant.
I wonder if Atlantis or anyone else has a copy of his form.
George
.
I remember it well. We had sheets of red and black numbers and each month carefully cut out the required digits and pasted them on the chart.
That congregation was about the same size as ours, just shows how much effort was put in and how much literature placed.
Some years prior to this (1950's) we rented our KH so the chart was mounted on a pole, rolled up at the end of the meeting and taken away until the next meeting.
George
do you remember this speaker?.
https://imgbox.com/no37wjiy.
how many people remember the old laurel race track where we had conventions back in the 60's?
I don't know if Ray Franz ever came to Great Britain but I cannot remember ever hearing him.
Any idea what year this might be? Has to be prior to 1980 when he resigned.

i have heard from a few ppimis and several pimos that the attendants who are stationedly-assigned to the front entrances of the borgvenues (cahs and other arenas) have been checking to see if any persons (members and non-member visitors) have badges.
on the other hand, if these persons don't have one, this is what i was told that these dubs do this: corral around the non-badge-wearing individual and interrogate he/she/them plus questioning them, "why are you here?!".
also, even if that person or persons have an invitation plus showed it to these dubs, these toy cops still do that procedure.
We had this announcement prior to our RC:-
Safety and security are a very high priority for both us and the Amex venue. For this reason it is absolutely essential that delegates wear convention Lapel Badges at all times, including volunteers for pre-or post-convention activities on site; these should be viewed in the same way as an entry ticket. As in previous years, bag checks will be undertaken on entry to the venue. Please try to limit the size and number of bags as far as possible. Please note that flasks and metal cutlery of any sort are not permitted. Drinks in plastic bottles of 500 ml or less are allowable.
