  i guess the full time servants will have to fend for themselves or rely on publishers to care for them.

  ------------------------------------for special full-time servants in the field in the united states branch territory1.

  necessary personal needs: it is preferred that you and your mate (if married) continue to care for your personal needs yourself.

  Atlatis:

  I became curious since one of my PIMO friends pointed that the letter just dealt with untact policy of Borg. Let's wait and see.

  Thanks for your kind info. 많이 감사합니다.
  

  Cheers!

  Did the Borg reduce the monthly payment to special pioneers in the US?

  I'm curious because I wanna know If the above is related with just quarantine policy or the Borg's stinginess.

  Thanks in advance!

  Koreans Becoming Disillusioned with christianity

  at the start of sydney's lockdown, family gossip told me that a relative who is a pastor, was telling his church members, "you cant catch the coronavirus in church.

  "i've hear nothing since, but its interesting that in south korea, a major outbreak was traced to a south korean church that had organised a series of recruiting campaigns in china's wuhan city.. .

  now, the hongkong based newspaper, the south china morning post (one of the best informed news outlets in asia) says that south koreans are getting pissed off withe the jesus mob.

  I know Korean people are super religious. They are not gonna be changed so easily by such a thing like the Corona pandemic impact or something.
  
  If you understand Korean, visit http://www.jw.or.kr which I'm running.

  Machine translation is not perfect but, you may make use of the service of https://papago.naver.net/website?locale=ko&source=ko&target=en&url=www.jw.or.kr

  Have you ever studied on this A letter? When was the signboard made? How could the designer skip the sensitive connotation widely recognized?

  Southern California USA Congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses On High Alert

  by JW GoneBad in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  circuit overseers, elders, ministerial servants, pioneers and rank & file are stressed out over an ex-jw (kevin) who has visited nearly 20 congregations (orange county) and has high-jacked the opening prayers and done some effective witnessing before he is escorted to the back door.

  and everything is caught on video!.

  kevin is also visiting numerous jw cart locations from the los angeles area to orange county and giving a most effective wiitness at each location and they're all on video.

  From the first sight of his video, I've not been able to agree fully with the way for Kevin to do witnessing toward witnesses.

  However I think no one can call it a shit because people are various in their faiths and the ways to show them.

  I'm just worrying about the legal matters related with his activities in California. In my country, that kind of activity is regarded somewhat serious so that a police meeting of investigation shall be scheduled with just one 911 call. In his videos, lots of brothers seemed to make 911 calls but Kevin is still active in his witnessing.

  Is that kind of activity in CA. apparently illegal?

  He himself declared that he is not.

  If you feel that still he is, please read it again.

  "I am very glad to have this particular opportunity of saying a word about some of the things in which we agree with our Masonic friends, because we are speaking in a building dedicated to Masonry and we also are Masons. I am a Free Mason. I am a free and accepted Mason, if I may carry the matter to its full length, because that is what our Masonic brethren like to tell us, that they are free and accepted Masons. That is their style of putting it. Now I am a free and accepted Mason. I trust we all are. But not after the style of our Masonic brethren. We have no quarrel with them. I am not going to say a word against Masons, and I can appreciate that there are certain very precious truths that are held in part by our Masonic friends. I have talked to them at times, and they have said, How do you know about all these things? We thought nobody knew anything about these things except those who had access to our very highest logic".
