  My parents told me when I was young, “You can trust the brothers”.

  The end of asking questions.

  i was out on the ministry(tm) in the 1980's when i was pie-on-earring.

  i was only a lowly publisher(tm) being coached by a rather odd elder(tm).. one of the publications(tm) had recently mentioned japan and the growth(tm) of jws there.. the elder(tm), brother(tm) i was with offered the magazines(tm) to the householder(tm).. then he stated, 'there are (gave the reported numbers at the time.

  i can't remember the number he stated), jehovah's witnesses(tm) in japan.'.

  Remember 15 jw's in front of the house for the fieldservice gathering. I parked my car, stepped out and ask, whats going on?

  "Br and sister so-and-so stopped with the truth this week, and we have no new gathering adress".

  That was the morning we held the gathering with daily text and prayer in the garden of former br and sister so-and-so and went in service 😊

  the organisation is now creating museums in 35 countries, is that their new way of making money?

  nowhere does the bible say that christians should engage to such activity but is it possible the watchtower is now making it a priority for :.

  a. look like they have something to offer to the community.

  Stress of Going to a Summer Convention

  by LostintheFog1999 in

  spotted this picture on a friend's page, he was highlighting the mental health issue.

  however,we thought the magazine on stress was deliberately placed in the summer months because for any jw going to a convention, paying high season hotel rates for themselves or their whole family to stay near the convention centre, fighting coworkers and managers to get the time off work, travelling expenses, buying their own meals for the family, buying new shiny suits and dresses to impress (particularly if you have teenage girls who are looking for their prince), and more.... by the time they come home again and straight away back to work, their nerves will be so frazzled that their stress levels will have sky rocketed!.

  as brother elder says to them, "don't worry.

  I remember as a child in the 70’s, I had much fear for conventions. Did not like the sound, the smell and the temperature. Long travel. wooden chairs, pain in the back.

  The long speeches and the awfull drama’s with shouting actors about Jehovah punishment of people who don’t listen.

  So happy we made a choice for pomo, so our children are not exposed to this events.

  @slimboy I agree fully with you. The coin has 2 sides. AM3 must be a character, but has quality’s otherwise he did not reach the top of a fully controlled organization. And had a kind of a true personality.

  So, let the man have a quiet and good time for the rest of his life, I should say.

  Does someone recall when AM3 shared his opinion about not believing in 1975, told his sons to learn for a good job, because the system could last till 2022.

  It was a recent statement online. But, when exactly?

  Someone at jw media department would lost his position. The AMIII exit message first at jw news section, then in newsroom and now it’s deleted.

  Seems like East Germany communication in 1989.

  I read somewere he is financial independent, due to family capital.

  Expect he will find a place to retreat, and will stay under the radar.

  Hallo Rijk,

  Heel veel inspanningen maar onder aan de streep, wat bereik je er mee? Waarom niet gewoon breken met de club, tijd voor iets anders en alles achter je laten.
