  Covid19 "Suggestions" (aka rules)

  by Huxley1979 in

  so a co just said in his talk yesterday that anyone that doesn't follow the branch's covid19 "suggestions" is disobedient and the type of person that won't survive armageddon.

  didn't the letter say that each head of household would choose for himself how to apply the "suggestions"?.

  the funny thing is there are other countries where none of these "suggestions" have been given..

  The funny thing is I'd say at least half of the R&F (including elders) aren't following these rules.

  Fading out during the pandemic?

  by Kingdavid41 in

  1. social
  2. current

  given the current world situation with the covid-19 pandemic and so many social distancing, staying at home and self quarantining.

  all meetings are currently being held on zoom assemblies and conventions are viewed via the website .

  this is the perfect time to fade-out and you probably won’t even be noticed!

  I agree. In the past, the only contact I had was from my service group overseer once a month sending me a text asking for my time. Now I get a text or call a week asking how I am and if I don't join the Zoom meeting I'm sure to get a call. So I think it's a worse time to fade actually.

  Bringing Your Files Up To Date!

  by Atlantis in

  1. jw
  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!
