For the new donation arrangement, here in the UK it is £5.40/pub/month.
So for 139,000 publishers that's over £9 million/year. Extrapolate that world wide.

in this jw training video, an elder gets deleted because his daughter has "stumbled" other jw's by pursuing higher education.
🤣.

They are still banging on about HE in the August broadcast. Usual scene, lovely looking young female witness being encouraged to go to Uni by a teacher. She is of course the best student in the school, easily get a scholarship ...... Sorry, I don't want to spoil this for anyone planning to watch it!
The other teen is a guy who is fancied by the best looking girl.... well you know the score. He has to break it off.
Why was it that when I was at school the best lookers never fancied me? Possibly because I was a bit of a 50/60's yob.

Built to house the Bethel family through Armageddon. Rutherford would be ensconced in his bunker at Beth Shan.

FRIENDS?
Here in the UK others in the congregation are usually called "brothers" or "brothers and sisters". However we hear the term "friends" used quite a lot these days, usually on US WT media. Thursday's video about a CO couple is typical, "The FRIENDS were there to meet us". It sounds so false.

watched this video and was wondering if any of you recall seeing this video besides on this presenter's youtube platform.

the only spirit-directed organization on earth never ceases to amaze me.. https://www.youtube.com/live/0u2ohrbdm-c?feature=share.
A video that lasts 1:56:03 and it's only Part 1? I'm sure I can spend whatever time I have left in more worthwhile pursuits.

Back in1969 they said if you are thinking of a 3 or 4 year college course you will never fulfil any career as Armageddon will be here before then. Those that graduated in the 1970's are now at or near retirement and the system is still going strong.
I went to Uni and never regretted it. The thought of a life as a pioneer and window cleaner makes me shudder.

well, that is my prediction for 2024 anyway!
hey, if watchtower can speculate..... https://youtu.be/dn8askhhwkw.
Announcement this evening simply said to update Life Forever book and ensure Publishers page shows July 2023 date. No mention of reprints or new printed version. After the meeting nobody mentioned it that heard.

my understanding was that this was the magazine regularly published for insiders only, unlike the watchtower and the awake!
looking online, it seems that the wt ceased publication of this in 2016. is it due to a name change (it seems to have changed its name several times over the years) or has it been succeeded by a new publication?
or has it ceased to be?.
- I remember it as Bulletin for a while. Of course bulletin is verboten because it is a Catholic word ( Papal bull)
@road to nowhere - I thought I was old!
"The service sheet of instructions entitled “Bulletin” appeared now monthly after October, 1922, encouraging all as “valiant warriors” to memorize Society-prepared testimonies, first called a “canvass,” in offering the Bible literature. (In October, 1935, this monthly service instrument was named “Director,” and finally in July, 1936, was given its present title “Informant.”)
...l Informant, July, 1936."
