  # of weekly meetings-down to 2?

  by Quandary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we recently had the visit of the co, during the elders meeting he addressed his concern over the decline in meeting attendance, especially for the tms & sm.

  our particular congregation saw a decline of 30% from his last visit 6 months ago.

  in a private conversation with him i asked if our congregation was unique in this regard and he said no, some congregations have seen a much higher percentage of decline, 50-60%.

I asked if he thought the Christian Congregation is considering cutting the # of weekly meetings. His response was he did not think so but the way he answered gave me the impression he knew more than he was willing to relate.

  Does anyone here have any information they would like share? Any friends at Bethel who might know something?

  Just curious-

  One of the finest individuals I have ever met was Ulysses Glass who was one of the most prominent Gilead instructors. He displayed genuine humility and love of God and His Word. A TRUE christian.

  anewperson: I agree about not ragging on Bill Bowen. What a courageous man he is! I guess I'm just very anxious to see how the Society(branch) is going to try to weasle out of this one! I took your advice and emailed NBC inquiring about the status of the story.

  Thanks
