My grandmother died, and I was in her appartment some days later. The neighbour elder rushed in, did not make condeolance but asked for my field service report.
A moment in time I will never forget.

No more REPORTING field service!!!!!!!!!
by BoogerMan inthis is going to break the hearts of a lot of uber-jw's!
reddit has now removed the video link of samuel herd telling jw's they will no longer have to report time or placements - just tick a box which says "active.".

They removed this breaking news, just like the AMG3 news... the news from today is gone tomorrow.

Further questions
by Gorb ingoeby's wife asked "if love instead of hours is the motivation why do pionieers and co's have to count their time?"..
i don't know.... and, if people in an organization are instructed and trained years over years that works and counting time is making them good a good christian and acceptable for jehovah and for saving their live, how will they feel now???.

I’m not sure what this means!
by NeedsProof inyesterday i was visited by 2 witnesses, and we had a long chat about lots of things!
one of them named claire took the lead and i instantly felt some sort of connection to her, after we had spoken and they had left i started to have this overwhelming feeling to research her and what she had spoken about but i couldn’t find her anywhere on any website or social media, so i left it and thought nothing more of it all day….
however the strange thing is i had a dream that night and claire was in it, many things happened in this dream that i was told i was only allowed to speak about with claire, i can speak of the dream to others but the details only me and claire can know!

Dreams can be so real. Sometimes nice and sometimes with so much fear.
The mind is a unknown treasure.

Did Anyone Have Fun With Their Field Service Reports?
by NotFormer innow that there is new light on reporting hours in field service, it's raised a few questions for me, who was never in the jws.
did any of you ever have fun with the field service report slips, by finding creative ways of reporting time without raising suspicions in those who oversaw the collection of those slips?.
also, can anyone upload an image of what the slips looked like, or point me to a post that gives uploaded examples of the sort of paperwork that was familiar to jws in good standing?.

List of main points from 2023 AGM
by ExBethelitenowPIMA in1. doctrinal changes how new light comes about.
the gb raise questions then talk about it, unless it’s unanimous they wait, then years later talk again if it’s unanimous it then gets announced as new light.. 2. the gb are imperfect and sometimes make mistakes.
they are not to apologise or even admit they were wrong.

Point 1, made clear how GB comes to doctrinal changes.
What I noticed was the lack of urgency. If not now, then in years.

Real reasons behind this change?
by Gorb injust a good conversation at home about the hour report change.. we think the change was not impmemented because the gb are such a lovely bunch of old grandpa's having the best in mind for us individuals.. there will be only, and we say only, an organizational reason for it.
a legal reason, to protect jw.org and it's officials and wealth.. next step?
maybe selling more kh and when jw hollywood studio's in rampoo are ready a change to tv subscription.. what do you think?

When JW studios in Rampoo are operational, I expect some subscription channel.
They will go full on multimedia.

Has The WT Allowed Outsiders to be Saved?
by NotFormer inhttps://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/1734baj/they_just_had_a_huge_meeting/.
this reddit post suggests that the cessation of reporting hours isn't the only thing announced at the recent meeting.
can anyone in, or sufficiently well versed in jwdom confirm that the op's understanding of this announcement correct?.

It's all so cynical. I'm 4th generation pomo, thinking about my parents, grand parents and grand grand father, what was it all good for. So many conflicts, so many lost changes. They all turned in their graves
