  Every talk and song is entitled. Never named, called, about, on the subject, or titled.

  I guess I am entitled to be a grammar nazi

  Do Jw's Dress up in meeting clothes for Zoom meetings?

  by jeremiah18:5-10 in

  i am just curious if anyone knows whether the "friends" still are required to wear "meeting clothes" for attending meetings through zoom?

  such emphasis on dressing in a godly manner over the decades, would be interesting if some attend in pajamas or their work clothes, no makeup, etc....

  More blank screens every time, or a photo background. Quote:" it is disrespectful to jehovah to not dress up".

  Comments on decorations made too don't want ant any distracting backgrounds.

  No apology about nagging people for missing the daily text ( a meeting not authorized by the wt) they spend a half hour to hour bloviating. Even those of us with nothing to do have things to do.

  Midweek Meeting looooooooong prayers.

  by Davros in

  one thing that aggravates me is long concluding prayers, especially at the midweek meeting.

  you work all day, rush home, grab a quick bite, dress up in meeting clothes.

  then, go to the meeting.

  How service is being conducted with the zoom meetings

  by newsheep in

  a friend of ours who is married to a jw said that this morning for service everyone who was on zoom got to do a call while the rest listened in on the call.

  there were thirty-one this morning listening in on one who would call someone to preach to.

  shouldn't the person they are calling on be warned first that there will be so many listening in on their phone call from the zoom meeting.

  Non profits and charities are exempt in the US from nuisance calls laws. I dont think they are recording video of the callee. How often does anyone even do more than hang up?

  Who has a phone number you can find? You know how wicked it is to make a witness call in an adjoining territory.

  You dont state your country. Sounds like universal service where you are. After boot camp it gets better. You will make new friends. Bayonets are not front line any more, mostly exercise. Not everyone gets into combat, not even most. If you do you will form a bond like no other.

  Learn the math, mechanics, computers, machinery, it will serve you well all your life.
