  Is it ruined though? I suspect he will carry on producing videos which is very bad for the apostate community.

  Its like saying look what happens when you leave JWs you become a fat, sad bitter old pervert who has to pay for special female company

  Advice to reduce hours earn less and spend more time on the ministry

  by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

  1. watchtower

  the advice to reduce work and earn less to spend more time preaching has not aged well.. the cost of living crisis means many have more going out on necessities than they have coming in.. so many asked their employer to reduce their hours and refused promotion only to see their colleagues go up the ladder when they stayed lowly position with rubbish jobs thinking the end will be here soon.

  next week midweek meeting is all about preparing for an economic crisis.. they say have a go bag and new advice for all jws to store food and water at home and grow a vegetable garden, i kid you not.

  this is the new direction..

  There is also a big problem these days with the disaster relief plans.

  the branch use free labour from volunteers to do the work and then the branch gets the insurance money, it’s a big money spinner

  the problem is often the brothers who’s homes were damaged were much more wealthy than those they are volunteering to help. They fix up these homes for free then go back to a cheap little rental and must be wondering this doesn’t seem right?

  There are some young brothers who have no trades they are just cleaning and cutting grass

  they are struggling as much as anybody

  some older elders and pioneers are also struggling and these young brothers were asked to help them by the body of elders

  which really meant free labour

  This elderly couple have adult children in the truth but they are so ‘busy’ they ask the parents congregation to look after them.

  the elders just ask these brothers to cut the grass, fix the gutters and clean for them. No money as everyone is broke from following direction.

  I feel these young brothers are being taken advantage of and the real adult children should be paying them or at least doing it themselves. But of course they are simply too ‘busy’

  this older couple can hardly walk to the bathroom these days but want to go to the convention. They are asking for special parking tickets but they can’t afford a car. The adult children should take them but no they are saying the congregation must take them and pay for them and look after them all three days

  there are TOO MANY needy Witnesses in one place. This is the end result of pursuing poverty for DECADES when they should have been holding down decent jobs instead.

  good point, the congregations of JWs are now full on uneducated unqualified min wage part time workers who were told not to pursue higher education or well paid careers.

  there is a concentration of low paid, renters who never bought a property or never paid into a pension because they were told the end would be here before they retired.

  No wonder they are reducing pioneer hour requirements, but it’s too little too late.

  There are so many approaching their later years that are now suddenly starting to panic, they spent the majority of their life in service for WTower and never gave a second thought about preparing for their later years.

  Will the branch do anything to help the needy ones? Yes they will tell the congregations to help them while they carry in asking for more funds to build the expensive Hollywood studios

  It’s already starting in congregations here in the UK.

  Some haven’t paid their utilities and rents in such a long time.

  To start with some slightly wealthier older ones give a couple of hundred pounds in an envelope but it’s for food for the kids.

  the problem was always that the direction was to work less hours and shitty jobs at that.

  now the world is facing something similar to a modern version of the Great Depression

  the congregations will be really struggling as the banking system continues to collapse.

  From now on any legal threat will hold zero weight

  Lloyd has often threatened with legal stuff and now he has completely lost any power he thought he had

  What rumbling have you heard?

  when a member of the congregation gets announced they are no longer a JW it doesn’t take long before everyone hears rumblings.

  this is a very unusual situation that a GB member just had a quick announcement then it was taken down after a few days, then his videos start getting removed

  are JWs supposed to just look the other way nothing to see here move along, like the famous Baghdad Bob?

  i am not trying to hijack the already well commented on thread on this subject .

  https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5068920948523008/breaking-news-anthony-morris-iii-no-longer-serving-on-governing-body.

  however i do have a question: for pimo's, pimq's, and those who still go to meetings in person fairly regularly... is anyone still talking about this?

  Many videos of Tony have been removed but he has been in so many over the years

  even in the book which is full of videos he pops up occasionally like the international convention video

  thats the difference with other times a GB member has been removed they weren’t on loads of videos back then

  its one of things people want to talk about when they see a video with Tony but fear being told off

  So has Lloyd lost the studio for real this time?

  will he be moving back to the UK? Either he just forgets his kids or he keeps flying back to see them?
