a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.

in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

I’ve never attempted to knock on his door, and to be honest, I don’t think it’s something that I would do. I mean, I was at Bethel and I’ve eaten at his table 4 or five times granted it was over 20 some odd years ago, but it would seem rather strange.

I would appear to be some kind of stalker, and I’m definitely not. It’s just that I happen to go by his neighborhood on the way to a tractor supply that’s near him.

Yes, the other home is literally right around the corner and there’s never been a car there and you can see directly through it because the places are basically just new construction tract houses.

At the Home that’s supposed to be theirs. There is literally a garden chair that’s pushed directly up under the door handle of the house and it’s been there since October so unless they’re going out to the back door all the time and have a different car and refuse to drive the Cadillac, they are not there

I have driven by his house on my monthly trips to the tractor supply and his Cadillac has been in the exact same spot and there is a lawn chair that remains consistently up against the front door.

There is a massive medical center less than 1 mile from his home so he could be sick and in a care facility. Maybe he is staying somewhere else but something very strange is going on.

It’s funny this is brought up. When I was at Bethel in the 1990s in the “office furniture department” my overseer called me and another guy to his office to take care of a very sensitive project. Lol

We were told we had to move a file cabinet from 30 Columbia Heights to an actual vault in the tunnel of 124 Columbia Heights which is literally down the block.

We were escorted by 4 brothers who handled night security at the 30 Columbia Heights building. The cabinet was duct taped, shrinked wrapped and a chain run through the handles of the cabinet with a lock between the links.

We were told that it contained the records and correspondences of brothers and the congregations records of those in areas the work is banned and under persecution.

Was this march down the block with this cabinet overkill? Definitely, but they took that shit seriously.

Soooooo I doubt there will be anyone willing to give you much info about what you are looking for

I'm not going to lie either - I like a woman in suit pants.

Me too my friend… me too. There is something about a nice fitting pair of pants on a woman that just makes me happy to be alive.

Im not going to lie, I saw some witnesses today out in the ministry and one of the women had a pair of black business slacks, black shades on, nice heels and a sport coat.

A small bag that wrapped around her shoulder and she was holding the bible behind her back resting it on her backside. I looked at them from my car window and smiled. She smiled back and so did her partner. I then realized this is going to lead to alot of sisters attracting men they otherwise would not.

I dont think they thought this through

Will New Rules Bring JWs Together or Pull Them Apart?

there's been a lot of discussion about the changes in the org.

you might think all this would shake things up, especially for the older or super dedicated jws.

but remember when gb decided all the khs and the bank accounts needed to be transferred/managed from the top?

Today at 9 in the morning I was driving down a major artery in Fayetteville NC. People here are very religious and traditional.

I come to a stop light and I see the most humorous scenario. On the right side of the street I see 3 brothers between 25 to 55 ish. The younger brothers are wearing cargo khakis with open collar shorts. The older black brother in a full suit. On the other side of the street 2 sisters. Both about 40 something years old. The white sister has on some nice black slacks fitting snug and some heels. Looking like she was on her way to a breakfast meeting.

The black sister had the long skirt, service shoes and a knit cap. It looked so odd. Like there was no reason for the two of them to be next to each other.

I can imagine there will be some that want to hold on to the old ways.

New approach to ministry

by Mikejw in

there is a new approach to ministry where the direction is to just talk to people and listen to what they want to talk about.

the new school for the midweek meeting is completely different and is all about the new approach .

even before the no reporting changes field service dropped right off.

silentbuddha

Anyone have info on where this new way is discussed
