  damn that boy can eat you would have thought he walked all the way from new york his last designation!

  in his defense he's also a worker, he's trimmed our cedar trees, walked the dog, cleaned up the dog's poop, did the dishes (sorry about his arms falling off, they are paper ya know), oh and he did the dishes after he cooked the dinner.........gawd do i really have to part with him?

  Making new friends after fading

  by M@el5trom in

  what are some good methods for finding and making new friends after fading away?

  i know this is critical to help myself and my wife to move on, and we both have suffered from depression partly because we are isolated to each other for now.

  we are good friends, but we both feel the need for others also.

  Very good question, m. (and welcome to the board)

  As JWs we used to have a built-in community with built-in friends. Making and having long time friends is hard to do.

  Find things that both you and your wife like to do Volunteer at soup kitchens, meals on wheels, etc. Other good people help with those things and you might someone with similar interests.

  Take up a hobby, golf, sailing, cards, dancing. Even going to the library and doing book reviews will get you out and meeting new people.

  I'm sure there will be other suggestions, but its a start. Making new friends helps with the depression, too.

  Good luck and let us know what helps you guys.

  Hugs,

  Joy

  Conference in Seattle, poster to give presentation

  by jst2laws in

  1. social
  2. current

  i had not intended to promote the next northwest bible conference

  but have received some messages from friends who wanted to know if i would be in washingtom again for this conference.

  so this will have limited interests unless you just happen to know me, you live in the seattle area and have nothing to do, or you have a peculiar interest in physics.

  there were several young 20 year old bethelites that began to partake in the late 60s.

  Steve Lett was single at the time. Left bethel to marry and special pioneer, then circuit work until he and his wife were called back to mother?

  As far as the marriage thing, he married someone not "professing to be of the annointed". As far as your thread, Jesus said the next existence will not include marriage.

  Steve Lett is 56. He began partaking? back in the late 60's while he was at Bethel the first time.

  Mark & Jean Lett were very humble, true believers. Never let on they had lots of $$$$.
