  Rural Service

  by buffalosrfree in

  rural service was always the most fun for me and my family.

  we loved it.

  i almost always drove out there and i mean out there from 14 to 25 miles from the hall we drove and then spent at least 1/2 of the day or all day out there in the "door to door" service.

  Yup it made it easier on those hours, did one door or two then jumped in to go to the farthest village in the cong, then back for a coffee, and finish off with a visit did this often, it made great hours with not much preaching......

  Do you not care anymore?

  by Pleasuredome in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  has anyone here got to the stage where they just dont care about the wts anymore?

  whether they exist or disband, whether its about doctrine and dogma, attitudes, flip-flops, what they think of you, scandles etc.

  would this be the end goal of recovering from the jws?

  I only care about the people, those who are lost to the WT, other then that anything to make it tumble would make me happy.

  What Things Were You Deprived Of Because You Were A Jehovah's Witness?

  2. friends

  i think back at some of the simpler things we couldn't do or have because we were a witness.

  i hardly know my father's (worldly) side of the family.

  didn't know my grandfather, grandmother, aunts, uncles, cousins.

  shouldn't we wait till we're 30+ to be baptized?

  by annalice in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i believe we were taught that jesus was around thirty years old when he was baptized.

  now i was always told that the bible mentioned specific things like times and dates for a reason .as a guide for us to follow.

  so by telling us his age this would seem to be very important for us .

  SUMMER CAMPS FOR KIDS A BIG NO-NO

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i guess i shouldn't be surprised at this, but my dub sister told me this morning that at the meeting last night, they had a "local needs" about whether or not "christian" parents should enroll their kids in any summer camps, or recreational activities that colleges and universities offer each year.

  the list of activities the kids can do are numerous and to me, they are an excellent source that could really help develop a child's talents, expose them to the wonders of science, art, engineering, etc., develop skills that would obviously be of benefit to them both now and in later life, and give them a chance to meet new friends from other schools in the area.

  anyway, while not out and out forbidding it, these activities are being very much frowned upon.

  Well they already did that bullsh*t talk at my congregation, it has been 3 years I send my oldest kid to a day camp, as he is Autistic and they do wonders for him, so I ignored the talk.... I'm glad I did, my son is now better then he ever was after that.

  What comment will you make at the New Light Watchtower Study this weekend

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  gbsjg just made a comment that the watchtower will feature the article on 'new light' this weekend.

  what a perfect opportunity for a visiting brother to a congregation (or incognito apostate) to answer with some honest and thought provoking comments.

  "i find it interesting that the watchtower criticises some religions for not changing their old doctrines and creeds, and other religions that do progressively change them for having had them wrong in the first place, and yet we seem to be doing the same ourselves.".
