The Awake and WT for FS will now decrease in size, and the Field Service slip will be discontinued. The new format in recording your time will consist in completing a survey on JW.Org. They will award a prize once a month to a lucky recipient. The prize, the winner can A/pioneer during a month that is not a campaign.

All appointed men are being told they have to pioneer now!
by stuckinarut2 inyes, you read correctly..... all appointed men have been told in a new letter that they have to pioneer to "set the lead" whenever there is a "special" campaign month.
they use some scripture saying that these ones have to show by example.... so for any of us who are appointed and have learned ttatt, it is going to be very hard to fade during this time!.

I remember this sister's comment she made about her Deceased Elder husband. A sister told her to not worry, she will see her resurrected husband in the New System. She replied, "I don't care. I don't have to marry him again".
He was real pain to deal with.

Well here is the Bible's response. 1 Cor, 7:12 But to the others I say, yes, I, not the Lord: If any brother has an unbelieving wife and she is agreeable to staying with him, let him not leave her; 13 and if a woman has an unbelieving husband and he is agreeable to staying with her, let her not leave her husband. 14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctifiedin relation to his wife, andthe unbelieving wife is sanctified in relation to the brother; otherwise, your children would be unclean, but now they are holy So having an unbeleiving mate allows that one a free ticket to the new world.

Letter Read At Special Talk
by scotoma inthe watchtower arranged to have a letter read announcing that elders would now be apponted by circuit overseers.. any elders on this forum know how this will be different from the current arrangement for appointing elders.. it would be nice to see a schematic with boxes showing how it used to be and how it will be in the future..

Currently the whole BOE had to be unanimous to suggest a Elder/MS recommendation to the CO during his visit. They. CO and BOE would meet and discuss and if they were in agreement they sent the recommendation to the Branch office Service Committee. The Branch office received that request and opened that drawer where that stamp is stored. The mail clerk stamped the page, and sent the stamped, APPROVED, copy back to the congregation.
Now, if there is someone on the BOE that doesn't like someone, he can't forever hold anyone back. It's now a One Pony show. You only need to convince one guy.

If Bible videos are down, they will have to bring up the rating to R.
How can they explain to baptised kids, because of the violence content, they cannot see this video until they get older.

Any Suggestions on what to say if elders ask why you stopped going in FS?
by BU2B ini was curious what might be some good things to say if i am questioned by the elduurs about my decline in fs.
anything too honest may get me a jc (although that would be for the best in the end..) the co visit is this week so they may be getting more agressive than usual.

Tell them that you have this new illness that makes you fart alot. You wouldn't want to trouble your brothers and sisters about it, by sitting in the same car wth them. You can't controll the sounds that it makes and it would give a bad witness.
