Ministerial Serpent
I am leaving for the Branch Meeting which is starting for me at 12:00 PM PST . I will be live updating in this post then.
Edit: it's a bunch of generic crap. I will bold anything of interest.
It's starting!
Spanish congregations tied in
Video of some of the governing body helpers
Bro Corkrin? Governing body helper leading WT summary
Generic Satan is cause of all our problems
Stay loyal to organization and get to live forever blah blah blah
Be faithful to those taking the lead in the worldwide congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses aka the Governing body
Bro Leon Weever helper of Governing body presenting a report on kingdom work
Talking about the JW.org campaign. 900% increase in auxiliary pioneers.
Experiences of people from other religions saying they would look at JW.org and loving it
Governing body made pilot program of ten brothers working remote northern areas. Hearing stories and watching slideshow of their adventures
International convention highlights. Worldly people so amazed how nice JWs are. Implied Jehovah helped get stadium contracts signed.
Talking about need for more Kingdom Halls. New Local Design Committee LDC will have full time workers. RBC will change but we will hear how in the future.
Donations appreciated
Bro Herd Governing Body member giving talk How the Time Does Fly
Armageddon is near. Addressing old ones. Even tho getting old 'do not get tired and give out'.
Addressing Bethelites. Read bible. Read your magazines and publications. Keep praying. Keep going to meetings even if you are tired. (There must be a slacker problem.)
Interesting comment from Herd, "at bethel you are at the top of the ladder of Jehovah's work".
Bethelites need to be on time to their assignments at 8am and stay until 5pm . (Why are we hearing this?) "Late arrivals are rude arrivals" (Definitely a slacker problem)
Yay fat wife jokes
Give to the organization financially, physically and prayerfully.
Bro Schaffer Governing Body helper giving talk Jehovah is taking action.
200 Regional Translation Offices RTOs are being built.
Bro Crast? Talk about Coping with the world
Dont be jealous of people going on vacations and concerts and having a good time because they are "terminally ill" and are going to die. We should pity them. Cuz we are gonna live forever. (Fucking cult!!)
Bro Morris Governing Body member giving talk 'is your family a spiritual family?'
Morris is going to give counsel to families. Going to quote publications so if we have a problem with it we can take it up with God. (So publications are now God's words??)
Spiritual families visit bethel. If you haven't you need to do it. (The JW Mecca?)
World makes it hard to make ends meet with taxes. (Hidden Republican?)
If your kids fall out of the truth it is the parent's fault. (holy shit he is actually saying this!)
Sisters shouldn't marry brothers who are not Ministerial Servants. Sisters will pay for that bad decision.
We need to dress appropriately. Some sisters are wearing skin tight "spanks" when exercising. It's not appropriate. Some brothers are doing the metro sexual look. Wearing tight suits and tight pants. One brother was "man enough" that he told a brother that he wasn't doing service until he took his dress off.
The homosexuals design the clothes and like brothers in tight pants. (OMG he is saying it again)
Counsel on entertainment. No violent movies or videogames. No spiritism. No vampire movies.
Brothers who repeat prayers where their children know what they are going to say "is just sad" (So encouraging! /s)
Bible studies are down
If you don't go in service you have blood on your hands. Some might say some brothers are just going through a hard time and may be inactive. But Jehovah understands. Morris said what Jehovah are they talking about? That's not the Jehovah I know. (Jehovah doesn't care if you're going through a hard time! Go in service!)
K it is over. No announcements. Just Moronic Morris III strikes again. And they focused more on the helpers of the governing body which I thought was interesting. They had a video of some of them at the beginning and then when each one was about to give a talk they read off their long title and on which committee they were in. Looks like they want some of the spotlight as well.
