I reckon someone realised it would be easier to use an anonymous representative image than it would to keep 'photoshopping' an image of the real governing body. Because surely in the near future there will be some more departures.

I'm sure Michael Jackson wondered about this question when he was making the video for 'Thriller'. -

I went to the supermarket and asked the butcher if he wanted to bet with me whether he could reach some cuts of meat on the top shelf.
He said no, the steaks were too high.

the congregation won’t hold any information as they did before from march it will be all put on the pub.

Interesting that the Feb 23 Study Edition, Article 9 (to be studied in Apr 23) seems to be reinforcing the current 'arrangement':
'Because we appreciate the gift of life, we fill out a durable power of attorney (advance health-care directive) and carry it with us at all times.'

Paul Gillies is also listed as a GB helper and also known to claim to be anointed. He’s probably disappointed he wasn’t selected to be on the GB
I reckon he, and several of the high profile helpers thought they were next in line, and so did their wives. I wonder if there's some henpecking going on just now, and maybe an interesting dynamic at 'bethel family' breakfast

1. Perhaps there are signs that at least one of the established gb is on his way out of this world.
2. I speculate that there will be some disgruntled gb helpers who thought they were next in line!

it’s all in person and only fully vaxed can go
by Indoubtbigtime in2023 will see a big push to get rank and file back to in person meetings and ministry.
they have opened a can of worms with zoom but what they really want is only in extreme illnesses cases can someone use zoom .
the only problem is they want everyone fully vaccinated which means if you didn’t go for your latest booster in the last several months then you are no longer fully vaccinated and just the same as someone who never accepted any shots right from the start.

If not the God of the Bible then who was the intelligent designer?
You can believe it was the God of the Bible without having to believe that it was the God of the watchtower! That question is related to '...but where else would we go?'

I just imagine ace watchtower lawyer Philip Brumley will be seen shaking his head, muttering 'See, you should have sent me over there. Those crazy Swedes wouldn't have stood a chance'

For the 'service year report', maybe the bethel number-crunchers will conclude that the 'fine growth' of pioneers in 2022 will be best represented by the peak number instead of the average.
