  Re:Green handshakes & IRS

  i was wondering if co's who get 'green handshakes' ever report their 'income' from these jw benefits?

  in the us even gifts beyond a certain amount must be reported.

  jw's like to claim how honest they are, do they report all their income?.

  i am moving congregations soon and what is the best way to do it.

  do you just show up in the new place and tell the elders you are new there and they will deal with it?.

  Entertainment for International Delegates

  bibl3thumper has posted a youtube of the celebrations that took place for german delegates.

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvs6_q7rqps&feature=em-subs_digest.

  it's hard to believe that they are now using the kingdom hall to sing pop songs and for dancing.

  The band sounds like they didn't practice very much. I also am thinking that they chose the entertainers based on their spirituality(status) and not their musical ability.

  It looks like after the annual meeting many are buying tablets or talking about it to download the new apps

  It is speculation of course, there may not come a directive but it sure looks like it is setting up for it. internal peer pressure may induce dubs to go digital in field service
