a lot of my ex fellow servants must be now in their seventies, what can you do?.

no children no money no home.

it is so sad.. so many decided not to have children as the end was right around the corner and that was decades ago.

I learned along time ago that Watchtower only cares about one thing only, Money!

Doesn't care who it defraud or steals to get it! " be warm and well feed. Just keep sending your money!"

Was you or your family ever a local needs talk subject?

by Foolednomore in

our family was always a topic on a local needs talk.

but it was funny when the brothers needed money they would come with their hands out.

this is when we lived in the states.

I was the subject of dressing too " Mafioso" with my pin strip suits and wing tipped shoes and Fedora Hat. And thin ties. The funny thing about that is my father and brothers dressed this way too. Seem like this hall in the States had a real problem with Italians. And believe me we spoke more Italian in that English hall than usual.

you know like those who are privileged to change the toilet rolls.

My mother has Dementia and I had two elders show up at the villa asking her for a donation. It is a good thing I have control of finances. They even had the balls to hit me up for donations which I laughed them off and asked them to leave. We are inactive for over 10 years, go figure that one.

Sanderson’s “Young People” convention talk

by FFGhost in

so did anyone else have the misfortune of listening to sanderson’s talk corresponding to the saturday morning convention program?.

full title is “young people - choose a path that leads to peace!”.

the basic idea is, hey you teenagers, you ought to be pioneers, wt construction workers, and/or bethelites.. i tried to put myself back in time an embarrassing number of decades…if i were in this talk’s target audience, how would i respond?.

As far given support to anyone as an individual in the Kingdumb Hall. There was one family that our family "helped" but not by the congregation. We just went out and did it.

This the argument I had with my brothers and sisters. Would the members of the Kingdumb Hall help you if you where down and out? Answer: No. Ask an elder for help to pay your rent ? No! Your car needs to go to the shoo? No can't help you. Governing Body, we need your donations. Ooh, by the way don't get a good education or a well paying job. And they want my help? FORGET ABOUT IT!
