my brother ( an elder ) calls me every time he's assigned a public talk.
he believes listening to zoom meetings is a great start, to eventually attending in-person meetings.
the talk is titled : '' reject worldly fantasies, pursue kingdom realities.
One of the reliefs when we faded for good is the end of being confronted with all this nonsense. What a wast of energy it was. It made me feel between ship and wall.
Now feeling better then ever. Whay a psychical abuse it was. What a fake wisdom in the sect.
I'm still standing better then I ever did! Looking like a true surviver!

i open a new topic, to find out how it's going in your area.
from what i see as a southern european in my constituency the situation is patchy.. the congregation where i am now has 30% old people on zoom but also young couples with almost all their cameras off.
no increase but a slight decrease in the total number of publishers.. circuit assemblies: before covid you couldn't find a free seat if you arrived 10 minutes before the start.
Who cares, anyway?

as an educated guess, the august 2024 watchtower may be delayed because 2 complicated subjects need to be discussed in this issue which haven't yet been approved to be included in the revised shepherding textbook.
perhaps the revised shepherding textbook must be finalised before this watchtower is released publicly.. the 2 subjects may be as follows:.
how to shepherd and appoint brothers based on the removal of the hour requirements, getting to know the brothers instead (does this mean prioritising appointing men who have auxiliary pioneered during the co visit and campaigns or men who are regular pioneers?).
@slimboyfat, agree. Addition:I see the same faces, no new recruits.
And the last time, the memorial 2024, I saw only sad, tired and lame faces. All went as fast as possible going home when the garnering ended.
No happy few, no heartly greetings this year.

on february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.
a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.
in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.
Since he left the GB some major changes are implemented.

"nouncement.

Watchtower was always involved with business models. Russell was master in money making. There is a lot to find when you follow the money.
