sd7 & Psacramento, very interesting points. It has been so long I can't remember but in a family is the disfellowshipped mate permitted to partake in worship within the family as an observer? If not, then why are they permitted basically as an observer into the KH?

"Never receive him into your homes"
by sd-7 ini was just thinking about that scripture, 2 john 9-11, if i remember correctly.
jehovah's witnesses use it to justify their shunning of members who have been expelled.
a thought just occurred to me about it.

JW tour bus crashes in Florida, with fatalities-
by moshe inmiami - a bus carrying 32 members of a church group hit a concrete overpass at miami international airport after the driver got lost, killing two elderly people on board and leaving three others critically injured, officials said saturday.. the large, white bus was too tall for the 8-foot-6-inch entrance to the arrivals area, said airport spokesman greg chin.
buses are supposed to go through the departures area, which has a higher ceiling, he said.. chin said the passengers told him they were part of a group of jehovah's witnesses headed to west palm beach.
police said in a news release that the group had chartered the bus to take them to a church convention there-.

This is so sad. My heart goes out to the families who lost their loved ones and to those who suffered injury. When I was an active JW I always was excited and joyful while travelling to the assembly. I'm sure these JWs were the same. Joyful and eager to get to the assembly and then their joy is ripped away by unforeseen occurrence, injury and death. It is very sad. Leslie

My apologies QUEEN WITCH, I did not see your post until I reviewed page one. Yes, incense/essential oils are a good idea. Thank you. Leslie
Ziddina: Purple, sage-gray juniper. That sounds very nice and a great alternative to green.
So many great suggestions and ideas. I cannot thank you all enough. I will try to post pics once I get that figured out, as I said, I'm a techno-dinosaur. LOL

Thx Heaven: I may be able to find detailed directions on google somewhere. I so want to post my pics. I'll see what the local Nurseries have in stock. I painted the cones for my door wreath with craft glue using a brush and then sprinkled the gold sprinkles on them.
Day Lily stalks are also useful when they're dried out in the fall. I painted mine white and attached those little red craft berries to the tops here and there. I also have used cattails, painted white then paint with craft glue and then roll tops in gold sprinkles.
Those huge prickly thorns with the tops that resemble pine cones are nice. I used sandpaper to take the thorns off the stalks and then they can be left natural or spray painted gold, silver or whatever color you want.
Gotta love all the free basics from nature. It's amazing what you can make with a bit of imagination and a few items from the Dollar Store. Leslie
