  Blood Cards on File with the Elders?

  by EyesOpenHeartBroken in

  i have a question for elders here or recent elders.

  were the elders, in the last 10 years, given instruction to keep a copy of every publishers blood card on file at the kh?.

  we moved to our current cong 6 years ago, and shortly after we moved in, the boe requested everyone update and give a copy of card to the kh.

  All congregations are supposed to keep a copy on file. The reason is in case of a Health Care emergency.

  I know of 3 cases where an emergency occurred and families requested copy to deal with Doctors.

  Chaos at Brooklyn Bethel 12/2016

  this was how it was described to me yesterday by a brother who has been there for some 40 years.

  "everyone is about gone; the governing body is set to leave within 2 months; the kitchen and laundry personnel are gone and i have to fend for myself now.".

  "also the aggravation of 4 to 5 business men in suits with clipboards daily checking out the watchtower properties.

  He meant chaos in the sense in that there are not many Bethelites around who were always moving about with mission to accomplish. There is hardly anyone around or oversight being given. "Just keep this Place Clean, and in working order!".

  I did think it was strange for a man in his late 60's has not been re-assigned yet and is doing a pretty strenuous job!

  James,

  Do you mean 12/2015? If not you have great powers.

  I did say yesterday, on vacation, getting ready for 2016! LOL

  I ask if he has received a new assignment yet. He told me that he is assured that he will be transferred to another Bethel location because of his long years of Bethel Service.

  New Field Service Format?

  by jw07 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it seems that hype is the only thing keeping jw.org alive and well these days (that and the money of suckers who continue to fall for it).. at meeting on monday, an elder announced "the faithful slave has seen it fit to change the format of our ministry in 2016, and more information will come".

  i guess the desired reaction is to get jws preoccupied with what those changes could possibly be, and if it means that the end is nearer or some crap.. with that said, i've been suckered into wanting to know what these 'changes' will be.

  does anyone know?

  He maybe referring to the Field Service Report slips, that have been discussed here already.

  You can now count online videos you show to individuals and digital publications.

  My dilemma

  by Saltheart Foamfollower in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have a bit of a dilemma that i would welcome advice on from the forum.. a brother in my congregation is giving evidence of having woken up - his comments and talks are usually slanted towards topics discussed here.

  he is a former elder and is part of a group of other former elders and ministerial servants who i regularly overhear using terms i would expect to hear from ones knowing ttat.

  he is a quite an effective teacher and will probably influence some.. however, in the past he has caused lots of problems for myself and others who i like (including another poster to this site who i have identified) and continues to be someone who i dislike intensely on a personal level.. his comments have been noticed by the body of elders and he is being watched.

  At first I thought you were talking about me, until you brought up the DF son story.
