Brooklyn Bethel Tours Through The Roof

by freemindfade in

was speaking with someone last night who just recently toured the us bethel's.

the brooklyn tour i heard was awful, very limited and disappointing and conducted by a local pioneer and not even a bethelite.

well from what they are telling the folks on the tour since the tm3 bit encouraging (guilting) people about going to disneyland on vacation when you haven't visited bethel, monthly tours went from 6000 to 16000!

@quarterback, yes they rather do tours then knock at doors in NYC. I would think is tough territory. They have commuters in all bethels

@sir82

Dont forget that they tell you not to take pictures or say hi to any GB members. Also if you see someone who came out in a magazine don't try to get his autograph.

The tour is done by commuters unless you know someone. If you don't know anyone the tour sucks!!!!!! If you do the tour still sucks but at least you get to talk to someone who actually works there.

the commuter regular pioneers get hours to do the tours. Instead of knocking doors you go two to three times a week and give tours and you get 40hrs.

just received two emails .

recently, it was announced that the warwick whq project will be completed by september 1, 2016. with a little less than 10 months left to go on the project, the construction project committee recently met with representatives from all eleven warwick construction groups throughout the u.s. the purpose of this meeting was to determine what can be done to more effectively continue the wonderful progress being made.

as a result, it has been determined that, for the duration of the project, all warwick construction groups will focus on sending experienced, skilled tradespersons who have regularly worked in their trade(s)in a secular environment.

Recently, it was announced that the Warwick WHQ Project will be completed by September 1, 2016. With a little less than 10 months left to go on the project, the Construction Project Committee recently met with representatives from all eleven Warwick Construction Groups throughout the U.S. The purpose of this meeting was to determine what can be done to more effectively continue the wonderful progress being made. As a result, it has been determined that, for the duration of the project, all Warwick Construction Groups will focus on sending experienced, skilled tradespersons who have regularly worked in their trade(s)—in a secular environment. Volunteers who have worked at a journeyman level with the tools of a specific trade for consecutive months on Assembly Hall or Remote Translation Office (RTO) projects will also be given consideration.

Now here’s the difficult announcement – Except for very rare exceptions, wives who may be ‘helpers’ working along with their husbands secularly—but are not able to perform at a journeyman level—will not have the experience needed to be invited to Warwick. However, if a wife is highly skilled in a trade needed at Warwick, consideration will be given.

We would like to thank all of you dear brothers and sisters for the wonderful support you have already given in behalf of the Warwick WHQ Project. The continued support of you dear wives will enable your husbands to remain available to work on this historic project.

On September 30, 2015 an update was applied to Builder Assistant. At that time a feature was added that allows you to provide a personal assessment of your skills. You are now able to record formal training, your work history, and the amount of schooling you have received in each skill listed in your profile. You are also able to create brief notes providing additional details regarding your experience.

All are encouraged to update their skill profiles and provide additional information using these new features. This will provide the Warwick Construction Groups with important information that will help them to identify volunteers that can be used on the project. Thank you in advance for taking the time to update this information. The following link provides additional information regarding this new feature.

If your not skilled don't bother coming!!!

Something interesting!

by John Aquila in

i was invited to a small get-together by a long time friend.

we both served as elders for years.

he is in his late 70s.

Warwickslave

John,

That age group 65 and over have felt misled. I just had a conversation with a friend from the service department. He told me how many brothers feel there has been to many changes. At the end he told me " If they change the 144,000 or Jehovah name I'm done" I just find interesting someone that high up feels that way.

Call For Children To Get Baptised From CO

by freemindfade in

so i've been pretty good at not going to meetings lately.

yesterday i went for the co's last talks.

older co. his last talk was absolutely shocking.

Warwickslave

The last talk from the C.O is different in every congregation because they make up their own outline. You can tell how crazy your C.O by what there last talk is about.

What other Shenanigans can we expect to see in the next 2 years?

by John Aquila in

its been a little over 2 years since i left the watchtower.

in that time the magazines have been cut, the birth of jwtv, jw-org.

carts for preaching, removed district overseers, cut assemblies, demand all the money from the congregations, stop construction and layoff bethelites, change the format of the tmschool .

Warwickslave

I think they will stream public talks from the gb or helpers once a month, for the public meeting. The RP hours will be adjusted from 70-60 and AP from 50-30. The CO visit will be once a year.

Template to dump Special Pioneers

by avaddohn94 in

"downsizing" has reached special pioneers.. this is the template mexico is using to get rid of many of its special pioneers.

see how cold and unloving is the language they use.

a translation attempt is as follows:.

Warwickslave

I wonder if they are kicking them out of there house. They asked to look for housing most live in KH. For me thi is worst then betel layoffs.
