When you google country's in list. Government statistics in surveys they make. Their population. It's totally different then what the watchtower report states. If they made mistakes in population in country's they make report of. Then what else can they have made mistakes on?

2023 Yearly Report UNDER the Microscope
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/pi7sn2rnrke?si=lnvklqct6nuayv2q.
branches of jehovah’s witnesses: 85 (= down one from 86 from the previous year and quite possibly they are referring to the hong kong bethel that closed down recently).
number of lands reporting: 239 ( =the same as 2022).

Where’s the 2023 Service Report?
by slimboyfat inwhat’s keeping them?
this has got to be the latest it’s ever been.
maybe it’s the last one they’ll ever publish too, after dropping reporting hours for publishers ….

Hellothere
Recommend going in to Reddit and reading testimony from hundreds or thousands of young JWs that hate the religion. Only reason they still in is obligation from parents and shunning arrangement. Don't even know what this discussion is about. 2 billions hours preaching and 1% increase. It's ridiculous. Feel bad for young people feeling miserable just so watchtower can keep numbers afloat. Baptizing young people should be banned. -

Well we all know reason for numbers not plummeting last decade is DF arrangement and JWs having children. The interesting part is the increase of "anoited". Could it be lot's of people visiting halls memorial time don't have a grasp of JW teachings? Maeby even JWs that invite this people don't have knowledge about what org teaches. Or maeby it's ex JWs pranking organisation. Other possibility could be lots of jws having mental problems. Wouldn't doubt the stress and fear mongering watchtower does on it's members must take a toll on mental health. If so then there's a serious mental risk for anyone being a JW.

Hellothere
Only reason there's no major plummeting is JWs having children. And DF arrangements. JW statistic is like sitting at funeral thinking who is gonna die next. Only worth noticing is the increase of partakers at memorial. I don't really why. Is it cause many JWs or people they invite too meetings don't have a grasp about jw teachings? Who can participate or not. Or is it ex jws that participate too disturb numbers.

Even with recent changes it’s a struggle to get people to attend
by hoser inthe kingdom hall is still empty.
even with amalgamation of 2 congregations.
the elders are handling the microphones and there was only one comment from zoom at the watchtower.

Who knows why parking is full. Maeby some event nearby and people used kingdom hall parking. Family used both cars. Congregation merged. Annual report said its was -1 increase in the USA. So you have in black and white things are bad for Watchtower.

"pandemics, immigration, emigration, JWs fading or being DF’ed or dying in higher or lower numbers". Yeah feels like yearly report last 20 years have been fluctuating for does reason and not because of any significant growth. Maeby they put a end to yearly report soon. There's nothing really "exciting" about it. Just a cooperation still surviving.

There's a lot happening for different groups in Europe. Protestants are booming in China. Watchtower spends so many hours recruiting new members. Still there's really not that much happening.

Increase in average publishers was 1.29%. Nothing really happening in JW land. They hade low increase for decades. Huge amount of hours spent in preaching work and 1% increase. It's stagnant. They should be happy they still afloat basically. There's nothing exciting about how they doing 🥱 -

Irland taken in lots of immigrants. Probably JWs that moved there. Africa if householder becomes a JW, children automatically do the same. Yeah nothing really surprising about this statistics. Pretty much stagnant in western world. Only going up are partaking in memorial. Nothing extraordinary going on in JW land. Shall we see if chatolic Church or islam been blessed 2023? 😊
