  I remember in the early 60's publishing and putting in my FS report in a box. Then after it was posted on the publisher card, the Cong Servant (name back then) pinned everyones on the bulletin bd for everyone to see, and you were advised to go and retrieve it off that bd.

  Fast fwd to the time I was a secretary. I got tired of asking this individual publisher for his report. Then the CO blasted me for not hounding him, and two other Elders paid him a Shepherding visit. He was so angry at me for spealing the beans on him that, he updated me with the last 6 months, and post dated 6 more reports for the next future months.

  That guy never went out in service for years.

  Thanks for your contribution to this site, Atlantis.

  Now, I'm going to have to study more for those darn MS Oral reviews. But, I'm appreciative for what you have given us.

  My congregation has quite a few people on Gov't assistance, and for sure they would be jealous, er, stumbled if I used my Ipad on the platform.

  Some have already approached me to lay claim to my Ipad should I want to replace it for an upgrade. But, they have made it clear that they can't give you any money for it.

  Child Molester dies and has a chance of resurrection

  by Quarterback in

  2. child-abuse

  recently, in our community, a well known child molester died of old age complications.

  his victims were jw's who have had to bear those horrible memories.

  they are strong, and very faithful as to jw standards.

  This is so wrong. It's something that many JW friends struggle with.

  Recently, in our community, a well known Child molester died of old age complications. His victims were JW's who have had to bear those horrible memories. They are strong, and very faithful as to JW standards. But, they showed no respect for the man that caused them so much grief. He never was a JW. His children did become so.

  Isn't it hard to accept that such will come back in the New System in the resurrection, but those who were DF'd will die at armaggedon?

  Yes this happens. We dedicate the KH to Jehovah, and then we take it back for the money and sell it.

  The members put two and two togeather when they see this brother freely commenting at meetings, or, when he is invited to offer prayer on behalf of the congregation. Then the assumption that there was no wrongdoing is satisfied.
