the wt study edition is getting a facelift for the new year.. the january issue had been posted on jw.org but.... the boes hadn't received notice by letter of such a change.. the wts likes to play up every opportunity to have a new release.. this time the jw.org techies jumped the gun and went on to post.
the issues for download according to their established schedule.. unfortunately, they went ahead of the fds/gb who too late .
realized the cat was out of the bag, sort of saying.. well, it got pulled off the website, for now at least.. what's so secretive about it?.
i guess that was an error who prompted the issues to be "on" last week; according to schedule the january, 15th issue shouldn't be posted earlier than this week.
anyway, the german issue seems to be translated from the simplified english edition for quite some years...

the drama was really ridicolous, man, but i noticed, in some of the jw objected to it as well,.
first of all my wife, she said it doesnt feel right, and she strongly disliked the music (she has no idea of my being at this forum btw).
then some friends, who also complained about it, but just to us, because they know, we do not judge them for their questions and almost doubts on some things.... i m sure there were more, but they just dont think out loud, and keep it to themselves.... anybody similar experiences ?.
that wasn't the horrific song they played after the drama...

...but i thought it deserved its own thread.. there is a letter from the madrid bethel branch to all spanish congregations posted here (written in spanish, of course):.
confirmed
the organization obtained two new large printing machines
one to be installed in Brazil, the other one in Germany, with Germany taking over all printing operations from the Italy and Spain branches
since the website jw.org went live with the recordings of "wts" and "awakes!
" it was releasing issues months ahead of the printed magazines.
however, the process seems to have slowed and stalled.
watchtower december 15 delayed, same for printed issue scheduled for delivery last week here, since magazine contains yeartext, which was released at annual meeting last weekend
has the watchtower given up trying to discredit the carbon-14 dating method?.
w08 11/15 The fragment was carbondated at that time... (the French Watchtower says "dating with carbon 14"
so it is accepted proof now
here's the text of the letter:.
christian congregation of jehovah's witnesses.
to all bodies of elders.
expressly not coordinator of the congregation but coordinator of the body of elders as in branch committee coordinator and not branch coordinator
district convention they announce n.10 kingdom melodies cd ?
last year a revised edition of no. 4 was announced, never received here
this year sees the announcementg of a revision of no. 5
finally i am free.
i wandered outside the convention around mid-afternoon, returning for the concluding song, so i didn't get to hear "summary of the botchtower" nor the final talk (which gets all the seals clapping).. .
know that the kingdom of god is near .
a scan of the whole programme would be much appreciated LL
ok folks.
to whoever missed the spiritual buffet this summer, you're in luck.
all of the talks are now available 'a la carte.
no songs... :-(
wow, what's going on here?
i look at all the new folk here that seem to have joined in the past 2 months and are posters who are under 100 posts and i gotta wonder why.. has something happened in dubland recently to cause a lot of folk to reach out?
if you are new here at jwd, how did you find us?
I'm really looking forward to see the annual report of JWD published in a thread on January, 1.
Perhaps listed countrywise , so we will see what countries have the greatest increase, average of apostafests, newbies and posts...
