my husband just gave me the latest km the novermber 2013 and it yet again has a question box on head coverings.. question box "should a female publisher wear a head covering if she is accompanied by a male pubisher at a doorstep bible study?".
it says "when a female publisher conducts a reagular, scheduled bible study and a male kingdom publisher is present, she should wear a head covering.
(1 cor 11: 3-10) the july 15 2002, issue of the watchtower page 27, explains: "this is a prearranged session of teaching where the one conducting the the study actually presides.
What the H#LL. I'm going to wear a hat myself, and I'm a guy. I'll do it in support of our female members of our faith. I'll wear a baseball cap.
Don't you know that the Anointed wear hats in their heavenly position. It say's that they will wear a crown. Can you imagine what the women members must be saying when they get there? "Oh crap, not here , too"
latest news from a source (missionary in foreign land):.
no more missionary homes anywhere in the world.. all missionaries presently in missionary homes must vacate.
must get housing on your own / from the locals.. circuit and district overseers have moved into many of these former missionary homes.. reasons: liability, cost savings, real estate to be sold or used for other purposes.. needless to say, many of these longtime servants are very unsettled.
This is so confusing. Does this mean that we have to revise the Organization Book, again? Delete the section on Missionaries? Change the Missinary job label as not a Career ?
Are contributions to send the Missionaries home for their conventions gonna be a one way ticket? If so, will we be getting a refund?
i kid you not.
the letter read twice at our meeting stated that the travelling delegates should be at least 19 yrs of age, but be an exemplary publisher for over 20 yrs.
how can this work?.
Yes Laika, Maybe I heard it wrong. I will look at the letter posted at the buletin bd for confirmation.
yuck..sitting in front of me, today, i saw an elder picking his nose while his wife was commenting on the wt study.
then with the same hand, he grabbed the microphone and passed it back to the microphone carrier.
he didn't even have a kleenex.

He didn't even have a kleenex. Gross. At least 30 people held that microphone after that.
Yes, from the hand of the few, many were fed

Hi Grumblecakes. I'm not quite sure about a Cat Publisher, but, I'm pretty sure that they outrank the Mouse publishers. Of course the cheese publisher stands alone.
so last night i was at the meeting and the local needs talk was given about "how we did last year".
naturally the brither said the avg was 9. something hours yadda yadda and theres room for improvement.
however what really caught my attention was this..the brother said "there was pretty good time spent reactivating ones who have fallen away from jehovahs organization.
Comon DS, you need to add one more hour a month in FS. Then the next special needs talk will no longer be needed

Lois, you have a gift as a song writer. You should send that one to Bono.
So is this for real? Are we talking about all Missionary homes? I know that Gilead doesn't exist anymore. Is this a fallout due to this initiative?
according to the november wt study article, there a study lesson about 7 shepherds, and 8 dukes.
the interesting thing is par 17. it instructs the elders to not question the instrutions they receive during an modern day asyrian attack.
maybe some kool aid is coming.
So the GB can give advice beyond human reasoning, but they just can't figure out what this Modern day Assyrian attack is all about.
