pimo verified this at the latest assembly attended.
check on this forum.
he was giving us attendance and baptism info and this was a side note... it is noted by another that when the question was asked after assembly was over, non seemed to hear the change.
No change in Australia.

someone posted this image on their facebook page of a recent jw rc showing a rather petite group of baptismal candidates.
notice there are nearly 75 seats (5 rows) reserved for the occasion.
by my count...it looks like between 17 to 19 were baptized...with total attendance of 6,000. the youngest among them looks like between 9 and 11 years old.
I went to a circuit assembly recently and it was a full house... because the borders have been jigged so there were no spare seats. What was really telling though was that the "cost of running the assembly " have gone up again, up 25% from last time!

after busting my butt at work this week, half of saturday would be out in service half of sunday would be at the meeting.
then i would be stressing to get the yard in shape for the summer.
and maybe after that have a couple hours to relax!.
No wonder so many people I know are on pills

haven't we heard all this before?.
we all know too well the barbaric atrocities the jihadist muslim extremists go , to reign their brand of terror in the west to instill fear amongst the population , with limited affect so far.. one of their means has been the use of willing suicide bombers in different parts of the world to cause fear.generally with limited casualties.. what if they decide to try and use the ebola virus with willing people ready to infect themselves and spread it internationally.
the ebola virus can cause dozens , hundreds , thousands , untold numbers of deaths in many parts of the world.. .
my concern now , and i think every nation should be concerned about this is , what if they try to deliberately send people into ebola infected areas , in africa and then have them fly out to whatever their home destination might be , spreading the disease far and wide in europe , america , the united kingdom , australia etc.etc.. i think these muslim extremists will use any means to bring down western society , any means at their disposal ,regardless of the cost.. what do you think .. smiddy.
Islam is the perfect vector in the spread of Ebola because of the practice of the family washing the corpse in preparation for burial, The fatalistic attitude ( "in sha" allah - if god wills it) ads to the problem - if i'm going to get sick also then this is gods will and there is nothing that I can do about this.
Retarded religion, you would be very hard pressed to find another collection of ideas that has been as damaging to mankind.

"people who were born in 1914 will see the armageddon" i heard it so many times.. "alex you left!
you are making a mistake.
the armageddon is nearly here" i heard it so many times.. it is 2019. no sign of the end.. i can make the same post in 2029 and 2039 and 2049. sadly in 2049 there will be crazy jws telling me the end is tomorrow.
And what does the Bible say that we should do with false prophets???
i am surprised nobody else has posted this yet.
a lot of people in aust will read this.. “incest victim turned lawyer speaks out on reporting violence and sexual abuse”.

I'm with Zing, worldly people are generally pretty good and what you see is what you get, not some put on love bombing and highly conditional friendship.

katie hopkins was a columnist for british national newspapers.
she is warning the united states to stop the illegal migrations before it turns into her home in london.
she is having to flee her home country london because of the culture and social change immigrants have made in her county.
Similar situation in Australia overlapper, The uniting church is big on providing help and integration programs for immigrants and collecting the government money, even having all of the George Soros funded "Get Up" leaflets at their churches.
