Do Jws help disfellowshipped ones or apostates?
by haujobbz in.
do you think that, if say you fell over and and seriously injured yourself in the street, would a jw you knew passing by help you knowing that you were disfellowshipped or so called apostate.
maybe even come to see you at home if you were unwell or depressed,i mean how many witnesses have assisted or helped you when you needed it mostly,you see i thought they were supposed to encourage you to become so called spiritually stronger.but saying that when you were active as a jw do you think you were helped in times of distress or illness by your fellow jw,for instance i know a woman who's still a witness but hasnt been to meetings for say a year and thats because she has severe athritis and guess what only 1 j-dub has wrote to her so to her it seems like if your not a regular at meeting you may as well be classed as disfellowshipped.

It depends on how hardcore they are, and if they have had a talk or study article about disfellowshipped recently then they probably will not help. Apostates I would say unless you are dying in the street and they are the only one around, they might help you.

WHAT'S THE WORSE THING YOU DID AT THE MEETING?
by Mary ini would have to say the worst (aka: funniest) thing i ever did at a meeting was when i sat with the circuit overseer and his wife (many moons ago......) .
anyway, he was really prim and proper and she was of course, a very submissive wife who barely spoke without her husbands permission.
anyway, he goes to the platform and starts off by asking th audience: who was ahab?

My brother fell asleep during the public talk, and the person behind him crossed there legs and hit the back of his seat. He jumped up and said "Oh F*CK" and then he realized where he was. He had been out partying the night before so he was pretty hung over. After the meeting those Elders were giving him the riot act.

A couple of years after I got kicked out, I have to admit I had quite a few guys. I still had the "worlds going to pass away any minute " attiude. So I thought I might as well have as much fun as possible. I then married a few years later to a guy. Had a hell marriage with him for five years. He was a drunk and wouldn't work. At the time I thought it was what I deserved. I stayed faithful to him, but eventually I left him for good. I grew up. Now I am happily married and faithful to a wonderful"worldly " man.

Outnfree.
I saw the KM Aug on this site. It was like my heart sank when he mentioned the Elders wanting to check up on me. He said they had looked up my file . (I was disfellowshipped 19 years ago and they still have the dirt on me) The Elders told him I could be reinstated in as little as three months. I was disfellowshipped for fornication at 17. So I guess now they figure happily married with four kids I won't be out fornicating.
My JW dad has been also calling here and there. I am wondering if the elders are using my brother to get to me since my Dad I have been brushing off. I have many issues with my Dad. He has been talking and then ignoring me for years. It hurts but I am slowly just letting him go.
My brother on the other hand , is my little brother. I am 9 years older and I remember Mom being pregnant with him. He was a kid when I was going through my hell years with Dad so he doesn't really remember all the stuff that went on.
My Brother has had a hard time himself . He has been disfellowshipped before and has recently been reinstated and he married a pioneer. So now he's in good. It's seems the cong. he is in treats him good. they are his family he says. He doesn't really have a relationship with our Dad either he said. I really do believe my Brother loves me and he thinks he is saving me. I told him I loved him too and that why I stepped into that kingdom hall to go to his wedding the only reason for me to go to a kingdom hall ( his wedding or his funeral] that's it.
It's like a reverse shunning to me. I want my brother in my life, but I do not want him around trying to convert me. It's real upsetting to me , more than having my dad ignore and then talk to me. My brother has always talked to me and has never done anything to hurt me like our father has.

My Witness Brother came to visit me today out of the blue. I hadn't seen him in awhile. We talked and then he mentioned something about Elders in his congregation wanting to call on me. I told him reasons why I don't want to go back. I feel sorry for my brother, he really believes in the witnesses and since he was raised in it , it's all he knows. He wants me to be in it because he loves me and that is what makes it so upsetting.

Family love.
by Vivamus inthis is a rather sweet story, and i love telling it.
january this year was the time when i decided for sure that i would leave the witnesses.
i had made up my mind, had told the elders that my faith had died, and so i had made the ball for my df rolling.

I go to a thrift store down the road from me. It's a great little store, they take anything you give them and if they don't think they can sell something they put it in their free box.
