  Bringing Your Files Up To Date!

  by Atlantis in

  2. friends

  several of the members here have written to us and remarked that they would like to bring their file folders up to date.. some believe they are missing a letter, form, or manual here or there.

  so, i asked atlantis to put a folder together for me to send out to folks, so that they could bring their files up to date and fill in missing documents.. the file folder he put together has everything you can think of in it.

  including the kitchen sink, bedroom slippers, and extra toilet paper just in case there is another shortage.. the folder goes back 10 years.. 2010 to 2020--06--04 right up until today.

  Hello, I am in the beginning stages of a slow fade. Over the years I have become more and more dissatisfied with the beliefs, teachings, and organizational practices of the organization. I no longer have faith in it. I no longer feel a part of the community. I still believe in Jehovah and want a relationship with him but not a relationship with the organization.

  That being said, I do still have a constant debate in my mind. For example, with everything that is going on right now (the world seems to be going to hell in a handbasket) it seems like it could be a really bad time to be leaving on the off chance that they actually are right. Have you dealt with these debates and if so how?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello, I'm new here. I'm a born and raised witness. I was an elder for almost 20 years. Almost the same in fulltime service. I have gradually grown more and more dissatisfied with my association with the organization. I have lost faith in it. Also, while I believe it is full of many sincere and kind people, I no longer feel we share the same performance-based "faith" and "spirituality" so I feel very disconnected from most. However, I literally have no one in my life outside of the organization at this time. It would be too emotionally traumatic to just DA or be DF'd.

  Many talk about a slow fade so that I can still have some contact with a few family and friends I'd like to still have something of a relationship with. At least at first.

  How have you gone about it?

  I am not wanting to bash or criticize the organization or its members. That is not my purpose or desire. I don't need that. My reasons are mine and mine alone and I don't need validation.

  Thanks!
