november 13, 2017 to all bodies of elders in the united states branch territory re: making the best use of our kingdom halls.
I'm inclined to believe that the overall picture involves creating a problem, and then creating a solution for it, taking credit for a master plan that forces all faithful meeting attendees to do (once again) whatever they're told. Here are my thoughts as to how this could happen:
Future problem - distance to attend meetings (self-inflicted by GB of course)
Future solution - more, maybe some day all, meetings to be attended at home, through jw-org site.
Benefits:
* Reduced travel time and expense
* Ability to pause meeting due to household interruptions, so that none of the meeting is missed
* Ability to replay meetings in case you needed to replay that New Light, which didn't make sense the first several times you heard it
* (List additional benefits with vague scriptural reference here)
i am having a conversation with a jw and they say you can not be disfellowshiped for this.
is this true?
i thought you can be disfellowshiped for this.

context on how this is used:.
2015. december 9, 2008 to all bodies of elders re: data protection procedures.
Every large company I have worked for had a legal department with a known (and often revised) records retention policy. I can only believe that this is so nothing can be discovered during litigation.
reading the meeting workbook study for this week to see what my family will be reading at their meeting, once again they are asking for members for generous gifts not only from money they earn but also part of any investments they may have and making future arrangements for them to inherit after death through their wills.
take a look at the lower part of the page on this link, its awful!

I was looking for something like "can you justify before Jehovah why you're not giving every last penny in your bank account? Don't you trust that Jehovah will repay you 10x what you give and more?"
Maybe they will be bold enough to include that next year...
ok, so hot on the heels of the announcement at the agm, we have been told that there are probably only 12 magazines left!.
yes, there will be only 3 wt each year, and 3 awakes.... and that they will do this for two years, then reprint those issues.... so yes, the "abundance of spiritual food" is limited to 12 more magazines..... surely, this is proof of the end coming so soon!?!
😉.
@Zeb,
Wonder if they're planning to print money...

"Less is more"
the song is supposedly about marveling at god's creation but instead includes over the top adoration of the elders, conventions, and family worship.
lol getting a brother who sounds like a wannabe josh groban only adds to the cheesiness.

I was waiting for Caleb & Sophia to arrive on a magic carpet.
No, wait, I'm thinking of Aladdin.
new system, brother, sister , kingdom hall, wordly person, in the truth .
there is a whole jw language that has to be deprogrammed..
Some of these terms may find their way into the next Bible! (Yes, the same Bible that is not to have anything added or removed.)
i'm fairly new on here and i've told a lot of my story but to recap, after 60 odd years i've stopped going to the meetings.
my husband had already left the truth years ago and my children didn't become jws.(phew!).
i had a horrendous childhood growing up as a witness which included sexual assault by a close relative, also a jw.
Wow - so many things you could say!
Maybe something like "When the Witnesses start behaving like Jesus, I'll give you my time for the month."
Another reply that comes to mind is "Put me down for 60 hours. I've done a lot of "witnessing" online!" Keep telling them to put you down for 60 hours. They will eventually stop asking.
My personal experience was that I stopped field service and stopped turning in my time. I would get calls, texts, emails. I would delay the replies more and more until I finally ignored them.
