I think that recent changes to reporting are introduced to cover decreasing numbers of publishers and time spent in ministry. Playing with figures will be easier. It will be easier to say that the chariot is speeding up:) Also - my tack on discontinuing info on special servants and money spent - far less of them (due to increasing number of remote, part time bethelites) but spendings going high.

2023 Yearly Report UNDER the Microscope
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/pi7sn2rnrke?si=lnvklqct6nuayv2q.
branches of jehovah’s witnesses: 85 (= down one from 86 from the previous year and quite possibly they are referring to the hong kong bethel that closed down recently).
number of lands reporting: 239 ( =the same as 2022).

Recent changes to reports - in my opinion - were introduced to artificially increase number of active publishers. All pimos , irregular members will tick the box "job done".

Hi everybody. I don't post often. I do drop in to have a look and learn what's going on.
I heard from a friend from US bethel that Anthony Morris 3rd and his wife remain in bethel. They live in the same room.
Is it an indication that no wrongdoing was committed?

My apologies if it was covered. Mark Sanderson was stressing several times how timely the Watchtower teachings are. My thoughts on his example : The article on neutrality from November 1939.
1. German Witnesses needed it from 1933/34 when the Nazis came to power - so the article was at least 5 years late.
2. The 1939 November issue was printed in English. It usually took up to 6 months to have the magazine published in another languages (it would have been somewhere in the middle of 1941 for many ee faaar too late). Additionally, because of the war, Witnesses across the world had limited access or no access at all to the literature. If you read JW yearbooks, you can learn that it was exactly the case and it brought many problems (including elders in one Polish city executed because they wanted to claim SS headquarter for God's Kingdom - all in the yearbook:) All in all for many it was no new food at all.
3. Even if we think about the US - two months after the war broke - was it that on time, really?
I appreciate br. Sanderson's enthusiasm but the sweeping statements without valid proof are likely not the best to choose. Amen

For SBF and Blues Brothers on the UK situation.
I think that the growth has been inflated by emigrants from EU. A CO told me that almost all of it has been JW from Poland moving in. The foreign field produced some newly baptised (mostly children, some relatives but proselytes as well). Now, many of them are moving back to their countries or other EU destinations because of Brexit and uncertain economics. I know couple of people waiting to be baptised. However, the young once do not want to take any responsibilities even if they are baptised. Many publishers are happy that they have more free time. It is more social group and it's hard to leave it. So, they decide to stay for friends and family, trying to do as little as possible.

Congregation Letter - 2021 Magazines Delayed???
by JWTom inwe had a letter read in our cong.
last week that said the public wt and awake would be delayed during the beginning of 2021. meaning we would just use the 2020 version into 2021 and there would be no new ones at the beginning of 2021 until an undetermined time sometime during the 1st half of 2021. at least that is the gist that i remember.
it was in what atlantis provided but there was no further detail....very brief.. any more intel or speculation on this?

Hi. They can make changes in the magazines on the go. If you use the jw app, you will have automatic or manual option to bring changes in publications you have. So, adapting the material to vivid/ changing the"light" is no bother for the gb
