Between 11/2015 and 05/2016 they merged in Germany 48 congs into 24 congs. In this time they build 16 language-groups and 3 sign-language-groups.

It looks like they cover up the reduction of regular congs with language-groups. In 2015 there 2201 congs in Germany - Yearbook 2015.

The review from the 01/2007 till 05/2016:

They merged 372 congs to 186 congs.

They establish 137 new language-congs.

They establish 6 new german congs.

They establish 6 new sign-language congs.

So the small 146 language-congs cover up the closing from 186 congs.

and as a pdf: http://www.jwstudies.com/appointed_in_1919.pdf.

Very good work, thanks.

You write 7th month and October 1914 - did you mean the old calendar from the jews? Maybe it's better to mention it.

Your "Not selected for because they taught the truth" could be included with wrong teachings from this time. You put it away, because they tell, they need a cleansing - did it realy happen? (Spoiler: No!) Because this is a big point: would Jesus realy choose such a crazy group?

Regional Convention

by raven in

so how many are not going to the regional convention this year?

it will be my first year not attending as part of my fade.. i remember going for all of my childhood into adult hood, participating in stage parts even.. however, last assembly i was already mentally checked out.

i remember looking around and seeing all of people bobbing & nodding at the program talks that had been previously repeated time and time again.. almost seemed like hypnosis.. i also had a hard time with the fact that we're all supposed to be "friends" and everyone had always seemed to be so judgmental.. especially at conventions & assemblies.. things like who had the best outfit for the days, who looked the prettiest, who can snag the single ms brother.. who took the most spiritual food out of the program, how many times can you tally mark jehovah's name.

First time I try to avoid it. While I'm full (fake) in at this time, I hope that my plans will work and I don't have to go.
