  "God's Word Is Beneficial..." 2013/14 Circuit Assembly "Highlights"

  by 88JM in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just had the circuit assembly this weekend here:.

  surprisingly not much fuss over the new bible considering that this was the first meeting for most here to use it (the annual meeting was "invite only" for a select few here, and there was no thursday meeting because of this assembly) and having a new bible was only referred to fairly briefly in a comment about how "wonderful" it is (and in the closing prayer).

  i think i was the only one there with an old maroon nwt - i got a confused look from one of the elders - haha!

  Just added paintball to my bucket list.

  I know quite a few younger JW's who do this.

  It's becoming a "Don't ask; don't tell" organization.

  Has the organization changed their policy toward inactive ones?

  for the past few years, family members and long time friends have pretty much ignored us because we don't go to meetings.

  recently, my sister (a regular pioneer) asked me to friend her on facebook, my mother-in-law (a regular pioneer) actually visited us and stayed in our home and another friend that i haven't heard from in years just asked me to friend her on facebook.

  just curious..

  I faded this year. I thought WT articles came across as more strict (Jan 15, 2013, not to even email family that's out).

  HOWEVER, except for a handful of families I personally know, the vast majority are openly socializing with d'fd family and keeping d'fd friends on Facebook.

  Just my two cents.

  1st Time in 3 Years JW's call at our Door - Two 30 yr. long Time JW's

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i thought i was back on the jw radar after my jw daughter had a local elder call on me back in 2011 - but apparently not.

  he obviously didn't let his elders know i lived here, no record was kept for posterity and just called my daughter telling her that her " dad has differences with the organization " because he never called back on me as he promised to talk again.

  as i'm just inactive for 10 years.. so these two older jw ladys come knocking yesterday - one lady about 57 and the other lady older about 71 yrs.old ( i asked how long they had been jw's and told me they both have been in 30 years.

  I recently read up on Masons, as my friend married one. I'd keep reading if I were you. Aren't there some other networking groups in your area?

  Do you make your own soup?

  greetings, soup lovers:.

  i have a huge kitchen at my disposal (not my own); vegetables, cans of this and that and spices are scattered about, prepared to go into a cauldron of minestrone i started a few days ago.

  i'm preparing ahead so as to freeze the leftovers to heat up later at home over my hotplate.. nothing like a 6-burner gas range to simmer over!.
