  i am at such a loss for words, i have stared at this screen for about an hour not knowing how to address this.

  i feel for the family of this young woman and any way you slice it, closure or no closure, it is the same.

  i will however say that the said missing person had just went through a disfellowshipping and divorce, and there was a dispute over property.

  I will however say that the said missing person had just went through a disfellowshipping AND divorce, and there was a dispute over property. It did come to light during this time that my family member was NEVER on any said property and therefore left with NOTHING. Within a year of dfing and divorce, had been added to a MISSING PERSON bulletin, and remains there to this day. This whole situation had pulled apart families of JW's and non jw's, and even elders that not only stepped down, but down and out the door! Could there be a coverup? Within the KH?

  I don't want to go in to this to much, as could be figured out by some jehovahs witness stalker. If anyone has similar stories or links to stories, plaese share if possible. Thanks so much, and I will continue to pray for resolve!

  hey not sure how to reply to specific people..................thanks Zid for the links. I understand the fading thing but is it the same as.....someone leaves under one name...(dfed)....remarries (a woman) duh, hee hee................ moves away from dfing congregation, then just starts the process all over again as a "new member" like someone that has never studied or associated with jw's like its a new found religion! I guess just wanna know besides fading is there a term for this process? I have heard them mention that jehovah has blessed them so much now! maybe it is working.(shrugging shoulders)

  Thanks Zid. I am sure I will figure this out given some time. I have been out so long! 28 years! I guess why I got on this sight is to learn and just be around others that share that. Since you said to be careful because it was a monitered site I am not sure what to say here as to not affend anyone! It seems so different to read everyones posts, than to be a part of it. I do have a question. If I have a family member that was dfed YEARS ago, went on with life, remarried yadda yadda, and that person, under a different name, has informed me they are studying(not confessing) with plans to get back in the org.....(have moved far away from the dfing cong)..............what the heck? I guess I can say I will not interfere with someones spiritually, but this has got to be the TOP of the jw game. What are the chances the org would catch on and has anyone ever heard of such a thing? Just really perplexed here! anyone insight would be wonderful. thanks

  hi all, i'm a long time lurker, ready to join in and add my two cents worth now and then!

  i was in the religion for 25 years, out now for 8, along with my husband, daughter, and son!

  i would have to say pretty much the whole time i was in i didnt want to be, pretty much "dreaded" all aspects of it, meetings, service, assemblies, and talks, i hated talks, man o man would i be grouchy the whole week i had a scheduled talk.. we didnt have much family in, but lots of friends and many jw employees, pretty much lost all that, down to just one jw employee left(thats a good thing).

  hello everyone! just did a virtual cannonball into this forum and am so happy to be here! I have been looking at this site for months now and have taken the plunge! wasn't sure where to jump in and my first post is to just say hello. I have been on the journey with some of you and I feel like we are already aquainted. First of all I am DFed, and have been since 1984. I was a born-in, and 3rd generation JW. It is funny how most stories are so similar due to doctrine. ALL JW's will tell followers to not visit these sites but all I see is Christian LOVE........and that does it for me. I would like to thank everyone on here that has helped me scripturally, testimonially, and spiritually. I did seek, and I am glad. I did not want to get on here and give a testimonial, just a quick shout out for the warm Christian association, and the thorough research that undoubtedly helps others. Oh, the screen name has to do with location and age. Haboob is a storm, sand storm. Thanks for having me!
