  Missing WT's on JW Org

  by joey jojo in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when i browse jw org, the following years of watchtower magazines are missing from the drop-down menu:.

  1987 - 1990.

  1997-1998.. i dont want to install any libraries from jw org because of spyware concerns.. are these years included in the downloadable libraries?.

  Thanks Journeyman, I lost this from my memories.

  It must be hard to be an active witness these days.

  The jw.org breaking news text is cold and full of distance.

  Thought on “0 hours” reporting

  by FFGhost in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so everyone knows the “big news” of this past weekend, no more reporting of hours, placements, return visits, etc.

  beginning november 1, jws just tick a box indicating whether they “shared in any form of the ministry during the month”.. so there was a brief comment by a redditor that seems like a brief joke “throwaway comment” but after thinking about it….why not?.

  the idea is, what is “any form of the ministry”?

  This week I walked by accident in a group of JW's in fieldservice. Nothing changed at all, many elderly sisters but the same look and feel, uber faces.

  my grandmother, an immigrant from austria, was.

  two of my aunts, their husbands, both elders, various cousins and two of my sisters are witnesses.

  so is my grand uncle.

  When my lovely JW grandmother couldn't attend the meeting anymore because of health issues, no JW visit her. At her funeral some years later, one elder did the service, but he did not know her. He told the audience that he did not know here and that the family gave him the right information. She was marginalized, and this makes me sick thinking about it.

  She was baptised in WW2, arround 1944 in Amsterdam. Will never forget her.

  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.

  this 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.

  goeby'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???.
