Shouldn't the GB and bethel heavies publish their applications to be encouragng to the publishers? Shouldn't every single bethelite sign up since they do noy have homes and families to support and care for? Shouldn't the example come from the top down?

CO's putting the screws on elder bodies, and ministerial servants to auxilliary pioneer this April.
by miseryloveselders ini have such a love/hate, 50/50 relationship with this organization any more, but a letter was read to the elders and ministerial servants that has pushed me to the 30/70 range in favor of hate, if even momentarily.
most of you if not all are aware of the auxilliary pioneering initiative for this upcoming april.
it's no secret that i'm not real fond of pioneering as its unscriptural for one thing.

My ex wife would get real emotional about unfairness. She would always volunteer our house for a CO meal but never even be aknowledged. Our Service Overseer sensed her unhappiness and said to me what day would we like. Back then I used to take a day off to work with CO group. I told him what day and I also said we would do something simple like grilled cheese and tomato soup so we can get right back out. He said he would see if he could work us in. Never heard another word about it. I just didn't want the comotion. Never told my ex.

It's the old Civic Center (I believe) that they used to use before they bought it in the late 1990's I believe and renovated it.

Dinner With a Pioneer Couple Last Night
by dontplaceliterature inmy wife and i had dinner with a pioneer couple last night that we've been friends with for a long time.
they are both nice people, with the wife having a few dashes of pretentiousness mixed in.. usually when we are together, they always talk about pioneering, which makes some sense as it's the primary focus of thier lives.
however, it has gotten progressively more dominate in conversation over the last couple of years, to the point of being annoying.

It's the commitment they are looking for. That makes the BOE look good to the CO. The life saving work is not as important as them being able to announce XXXX pioneers this month. If a person did 150 hours a month but did not "sign up" they would not receive encouragement, they would be counseled for not signing up and being an example and following direction.

The ones in my old hall known for the elaborate spreads are the ones that get the CO each visit. It was really the old BS groups that were to take CO feeding assignments each day, and that whole BS group was invited to lunch on their day, and expected to help of course. One study was so overboard the whole study would work on the meal instead of FS with the CO, and the CO just LOVED eating there. Afternoon service was just about zero after that huge feast. But there were more genuine COs. One I remember wanted simple sandwishes brought to the hall so they could get back out to FS quickly.
