  has there been anything in writing sent out to the elders, co's re the stopping of the "ww building work yet?.

  no one has mentioned anything at cong level but it has been mentioned about the bethelites being sent tot the field as of january - canadian bethel is being reduced by 40% and the ones remaining have been told they will have to do work themselves, i.e.

  food and cleaning.... .

  The building work that is being stop is major construction. Assembly halls or Remote translation offices. KH are still going to be built. I talk to branch comitee member that's not in the U.S branch. He told me they have a template letter that the U.S branch sent them. It's a 25 percent reduction around the world. Much smaller then at first talked about.

  He is in the Mexico branch the first number they told them were reduction of 700-800. Newest number is from 300-400. Their is slight change of the number going home.

  is this supposed to placate the ones who have been recently fired?

  is this a sign of the aging jw leadership?

  Episcopo was one of many hard nose Spanish D.O. Did any of you guys had Lira or Melendez? Most of these old timers are hard core will never say one bad thing. Till you get them alone.

  Years a go I was talking to a C.O by last name vanyike I'm not sure how you spell it. He told me he was disappointed that the end was not here yet. He said he wish he had a family, he was old and alone.

  Thanks to all involved in the leak.

  My taughts, first of all the teach book is already water down. I could imagine how bad the second one will be.

  Magazines, about time, like many here think magazines will be done with in a couple years. It's mostly recycled material.

  New meetings, I think there trying to get more publishers. Many elders don't let you become a publisher if you are not in the TM school. So any kid 3 and over can become a publisher with not having a TM school anymore. So publisher will go up, if your kid is 5 and not a publisher your bad parent.

  Latest rumor - all WT construction "suspended", except for Warwick

  by sir82 in

  1. jw

  heard 4th-hand, but from a full-on believer, so not likely to be an "apostate lie":.

  apparently, at bethel's morning worship this morning, it was announced that all worldwide wts construction is "suspended" for an indefinite time, except for the new world headquarters at warwick.. also, the "relocation" of remote translating teams is also suspended.. finally, there will be a "worldwide" reduction in bethel personnel.. all this came to me in a non-english language, and,as noted, 4th-hand.

  so it is possible something may have been lost in translation and/or in the multiple steps between bethel morning worship & me.. but if true, it would be quite stunning.

  I will confirm with a friend that's in Warwick. The irony is that this weekend magazine talks about the importance of building KH. I really think they went over budget on the Warwick project, they used a lot outside contractors.

  TV.JW.ORG (September 2015) - Generation explained again

  by Designer Stubble in

  guess the overlapping generation concept is difficult for most to comprehend.

  david spane does his best to explain it again.

  the cutoff date for this generation has now moved to 1992 (was once 1935), the year that fred franz died.

  So God only choose white people to be part of the 144,000? I taught he was impartial.

  Splane Said in the video that all the GB were part of the second generation. My wife that's a believer said "they just bought themselves 30 years" yes they did. No petting lions till 2045.
