  Child Abuse In This Weeks Meeting Part

  by thedepressedsoul in

  i was sitting at the meeting this week and the "apply yourself to the field ministry" part started.

  it was the first part under, "the initial call".

  they read from the "good news" brochure and ask a question on it.

  How old is the Good News brochure?

  I am surprised how many JWs have absolutely zero idea the whole child abuse issue even exists.

  This week's resurrection video, will it backfire on the wt?

  the resurrection is supposed to be a joyous occasion?, if it ever happened!

  --well, this week's showing at the hall was the opposite, it was about death with violins playing in the background.

  a recently bereaved member, , full of tears, (like many others) could not contain herself.

  I was at the assembly where they showed that video.

  I remember all the tears from people sitting around me and the general sense of heaviness in the air.

  I also remember seeing a few people (not a lot but a few!) whos faces looked very "set" and grim. They were not letting the emotional manipulation in. They were steeled against it.

  I think looking at the faces and how they receive that sorry video could be a litmus test of who has had just about enough of the Org.

  i was recently told that circit overseers must give up the position at age 70. is that true and if so, does the coordinator have to give up his position at age 70 also?

  I wonder why 70 for C.O.s and 80 for COBEs?

  Im sure the Org would blame pressure, travel and responsibilities the C.O.s have but truthfully they live a rather cosseted life.

  COBEs are in the trenches.

  so why really?

  Is the 'growth™' still being hyped?

  by punkofnice in

  when i was a member of watchtower corporation, i regularly heard how it must be the true religion because of the growth™.

  (phenomenal, apparently).. i wonder if they still hang onto this?

  has it been boasted about at meetings recently?

  The Org is attempting to spin straw in to gold with statistics.

  Attempting being the operative word.

  Skills Questionnaire Instructions

  skills questionnaire instructions.

  1. there is an urgent need to locate exemplary brothers and sisters who possess certain skills or work experience and who are available to offer their services on a broader scale to help support the theocratic expansion work taking place worldwide.

  for example, skilled brothers are needed to assist with large-scale theocratic construction projects, computer-related projects, audio/video projects, and the increasing translation work.

  Perhaps Maria would like you to be reinstated so that the two of you could have a wedding without the worry of people you love not coming.

  That is certainly understandable.

  You will have to weigh out is that one day (wedding) worth being reinstated for?

  If it is then you have your answer. If it is not then you and Maria will have to talk.

  This will be one of many difficult situations you will have to face together once you are a married couple.

  Maybe seeing how the two of you handle this will help you both learn about each other and your styles of making decisions about all of lifes issues?

  Wishing the best to you both.
