so in this past week i came across a stash of my old elder stuff.
i've scanned a bunch of notes and agendas, and public talk outlines.. check out an agenda and my notes from the meeting here: https://imgur.com/gallery/qqmyczn.
i’ve put an explanatory note on each image in imgur.
jp962: I wonder if I have any of my notes. I was an elder for 20 years. Most are mundane, but some might be "informative." I'll take a look.
It's so weird for me looking back on these now. We were cleaning out a cupboard and there was the notebook, right at the bottom!

slimboyfat: “Confirm no action but no more chances” — love it!
"You touch that thing again and you're OFF the team!"
slimboyfat: ”Status of schooling” — does that mean to ensure that no higher education is going on, or what?
I can't recall what this one was about, this guy had two young kids and I think one of them might have been in trouble at school

@slimboyfat: I don’t recall seeing elders’ agendas or notes before. This is quite informative.
I have quite a few more that I will post up in due course. I scanned them all over the weekend and need to go through them with a black pen to protect the innocent. It's so weird looking back on this stuff now
we had to go off grid for a time, time and half a time as we thought we had been outed.
fortunately it was a false alarm, but it was a stressful time.
i asked for my original diary thread to be deleted in case there could be anything on there to identlfy mrs smith and i. i am always very careful when posting, and am sure there was nothing on there, but felt it best to have it removed in order to be as cautious as a dove.
@All or Nothing: Glad to hear that you are both out, it sure makes the post-exit life a lot easier. When the site changed from JWN to the new format, it seems to have messed up the format of the OP. Looks weird with no paragraphs!
@jp1692: Greetings!
@Magnum: Thanks for checking it out. I had a read through the whole thread last night and I am glad I wrote it all down at the time it was happening because there is so much that I have now forgotten! I will post an update on where things are at with us in due course.
i am surprised no one has mentioned what is going on in canada.. maybe they have but i missed it.
so here are some of the facts as i know them.
ontario only.. sault st. marie had their six congregations whittled down to two.
are you aware of any double standards promoted by the organization of jehovah's witnesses?
here a a few i am aware of:.
1. the wts equated joining the ymca with apostasy but felt free to join the un for 10 years (1991-2001).
When talking about bible studies who are facing opposition from their family for getting involved with the JWs, the July 2009 Awake on page 29 states:
“No one should be forced to worship in a way that he finds unacceptable or be made to choose between his beliefs and his family.”
They completely ignore this advice when it comes to people wishing to depart the organisation.

If growth is a sign of Jehovah’s blessing, what’s it called when numbers fall, buildings need to be sold off, and congregations need to be combined?

businessman felt harassed by jws, so he found that word marks "der wachtturm" and "erwachet!
" (german versions of "the watchtower" and "awake!
It’s almost like the organisation has no foresight

@Listener: Well hello there! I remember you from when I posted on here in “the old days”! How’s it going? What’s new? Last time I posted this site was the old JWN.
