You must be under 40. After many dedicated years and the continual letdowns, false hopes, you will realize that everything just doesn't add up! Try pioneering for 24 years, believing the End could be any day now and then it is time to retire and you have no benefits because you were told meeting after meeting you don't have to worry about it. Now you are in your 60's, working full time, living in a government housing unit, dependent on government health care, needing food stamps, etc. Because you believed everything that was told you and put into print. I challenge you to talk to a long time Witness and ask them how long have they been waiting for Armageddon.

6 New Kingdom Halls Built In The US This Year
by James Jack inon our local needs part tonight, the elder (on the local ldc), conducting the part, said he just got back from a meeting in memphis tn with members from the us branch rdc conducting the meeting.
they mentioned that only 6 new kingdom halls and 2 major re-models were completed in 2016.
"it may seem like a small accomplishment, considering under the old rbc arrangement there was some 700 projects on the average each year being done", "but, this is going 5-10 years of training to kick this new program into optima production".

I asked the Brother after the specifically, "6 for our Region or only 6 built here in the States." His reply:" 6 in the States".
I will ask him again tomorrow, in case I wasn't clear enough in my question.

At the meeting, The one conducting also said that "Halls that are less than 25 miles from each other only having 1 or 2 assigned, will be closely looked at as to whether they could be reassigned to another hall, and the Kingdom Hall sold off. That way dedicated funds are better utilized."

Yes, I read your earlier post. But this Brother was throwing around these low number of accomplishments, and I was taken a back. Such a major difference from the RBC days where there was at least a building project per month just for our RBC and there were some 100 different RBC's throughout the U.S. -

On our Local Needs part tonight, the Elder (On the local LDC), conducting the part, said he just got back from a Meeting in Memphis TN with Members from the US Branch RDC conducting the meeting. They mentioned that only 6 New Kingdom Halls and 2 Major Re-Models were completed in 2016. "It may seem like a small accomplishment, considering under the Old RBC arrangement there was some 700 projects on the average each year being done", "but, this is going 5-10 years of training to kick this new program into optima production". Then he added, "We have applications on hand if you want to be a part of this new arrangement that Jehovah's Organization has put into place".
I'm thinking, boy, they must be building up a large cash reserve.

Confirmed by a family friend and Elder who lives in the area! He was a Pioneer Elder in a Port St Lucie (River View Congregation) FL, Convention and Assembly Speaker, A"Shining Star" of the Circuit and had served at Bethel for several years. Was sexually abusing his step daughter from age 8 to 12. His wife has divorced him and moved back to Tennessee. What does that tell you about his bible based trained conscience for the whole 4 years of abusing a young child, serving as an Elder, while having these "many privileges"? Explain this one Watchtower!
