Thank you Blondie for sharing this! I have always had the utmost admiration for Ghandi. Jesus, Martin Luther King and Ghandi, in my opinion, are three of the wisest persons to ever grace the earth with their presence.

What can I say, I was born in the wrong generation. I find that today's actresses pale in comparison to the glamour gals of the past.

When I found out about the UN NGO affair back in 2001 I decided to register to vote. I have voted in the past two presidential primaries and the election in 2004 and will vote again this year.

440 Bethelites reassigned......does that mean those who accepted assignments as pioneers versus those who declined and got jobs at supermarkets...
We all know how the WTS plays with words...
Ynot- you do have a point.

Hmm? How was that mentioned from the platform? Was a letter read from the CCOJWs? During our SM this week there was no such news tidbit. I do have it on good authority that since the downsizing began in 2006 they have let approx 1400 go.

440 in 2008? I believe the total let go since the "downsizing" began is closer to 1400.

Although not officially in the public domain , my understanding is that COs will not be given a new assignment after their existing one ends on Aug 31st 2009. Each CO has been sworn to confidentiality on this matter. WTS still working on the details & many COs annoyed at lack of information. Still some question about whether all will be reassigned as special pioneers - looks like each CO will be treated on a case by case basis. Those who have a home are being "encouraged" to return there. Some COs are already sorting their futures out & have come off or will be by end of service year.
Transitionally , the foreign language circuits are already in the process of being disbanded and will be serviced by existing COs from 1.9.08. No new substitute COs are being recruited.
Ernie: Did you get this info from a reliable source? Bethel contact? The details you mention seem to add validity to the recent speculations.
