Lloyd’s new book
by jwfacts ini see there has already been discussion over lloyd’s new book how to leave the jehovah's witnesses.
this includes discussion around his personality, motives and financial gains.
i have written a foreword for this book, because it is an important topic that has not been covered in such a complete format before.

How can the congregation express its joy when an announcement is made that someone has been reinstated?
In Luke chapter 15, we find Jesus’ powerful illustration about a man who had a flock of 100 sheep. When one of the sheep was missing, the man left the 99 behind in the wilderness and went after the lost sheep ‘until he found it.’ Jesus continued: “When he has found it, he puts it on his shoulders and rejoices. And when he gets home, he calls his friends and his neighbors together, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost.’” In conclusion, Jesus said: “I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over 99 righteous ones who have no need of repentance.”—Luke 15:4-7.
The context shows that Jesus spoke these words in order to correct the thinking of the scribes and the Pharisees, who criticized him for associating with tax collectors and sinners. (Luke 15:1-3) Jesus pointed out that there is joy in heaven when a sinner has come to repentance. We ask, ‘Since there is joy in heaven, should there not also be joy on earth when a sinner has repented, turned around, and made straight paths for his feet?’—Heb. 12:13. -

Readmission = REINSTATEMENT
In portuguese the word is 'readmissão'. Wrong translate, sorry.

A new letter was posted in JW.org to the elders who are under the Brazilian Branch:

TO ALL BODIES OF ELDERS
Ref .: Clap when given a readmission ad
Dear Brothers:
We would like to inform you about a recent adjustment. In the past, we considered
inappropriate for the congregation clap when the elders announced a reinstatement
(km 2/00 p. 7) But, as explained in The Watchtower May 2016, page 32, there
Biblical reasons that allow you to clap your hands spontaneously and dignified manner
when such announcements are given. So if publishers want to clap, elders should not discourage them from doing so.
Accept our warm Christian love.ORIGINAL:

A TODOS OS CORPOS DE ANCIÃOS
Ref.: Bater palmas quando é dado um anúncio de readmissão
Prezados Irmãos:
Gostaríamos de informá-los sobre um recente ajuste. No passado, considerávamos
inapropriado que a congregação batesse palmas quando os anciãos anunciavam uma readmissão.
(km 2/00 p. 7) Mas, como será explicado em A Sentinela de maio de 2016, página 32, há
razões bíblicas que permitem que se batam palmas de maneira espontânea e dignificante
quando tais anúncios são dados. Portanto, caso os publicadores queiram bater palmas, os anciãos
não devem desencorajá-los de fazer isso.
Aceitem nosso caloroso amor cristão.
Seus irmãos -

Bethel in Brazil (and I think in other countries as well) when a JW does 10 years of regular pioneer (or other form of full-time service) it can ask to stay three days in Bethel.
No longer in Brazil, according to a letter sent today to all the congregations in Brazil:Ref .: Accommodation in Bethel
Dear Brothers:
In recent years, there has been a great privilege to stay in Bethel those be welcome for over 10 years as regular pioneers and be encouraged by the zeal they have shown. - Rom. 1:11, 12.
But due to various projects of reform and construction, we are with few accommodation for guests. Thus, we can no longer meet the hosting applications at Bethel made by those who are serving for over 10 years as regular pioneers.
However, the accommodations that have been confirmed by the Branch will stand. Please hailing those who are serving for over 10 years as regular pioneers know this setting.
On this occasion, we wish them the rich Jehovah's blessing.
Your brothers,
Note to the body of elders:
Those who wish to stay in one of the nearby Bethel hotels can see the list by clicking here or by going to the Documents tab jw.org, Suppliers option. In the Search field type "room and board". -
