during the first talk tonight, the brother giving the talk indicated that now comments were to include sisters!
previously mostly only brothers were mentioned in most prayers or comments - has anyone else heard this tonight?.
the meeting seemed to be positioned directly to and about sisters.
and pray, all with a proper headcovering (not a napkin or similar)
Blondie ...
Forgive my lack of research on this, but when I was little and went to my grandparents for lunch, my grandmother would put a napkin or paper on her head to pray if my grandfather was not in the room.
I didn't know there was some sort of official head covering to wear.

but you can now enable a jw.org.
skill on alexa and you too can hear the daily text, w/tower material, kingdom songs , selections from broadcasts , audio bible dramas ...and more from your echo device.
what fun!
My Echo is scheduled to be here tomorrow ...I will set it up for my uncle and aunt to get the jw dot org stuff.
I hope their Alexa is not an apostate .... he he he. That would be interesting.

i hear some people say that if you are a republican or democrat that you must not be very educated, intelligent or monetarily stable.
.
do you think it’s proper to paint any person as less than favorable because of their political opinions?
Yes, Min, there are rich and poor democrats, rich and poor republicans, rich and poor independents.
It's just that in a recent Fox News Poll, the poorer democrats and independents tend to have teeth and not play the banjo.

i came across this article written in 2004 by an evangelical.. “when did jerusalem fall?”, rodger young, journal of the evangelical society [jets], 47/1 (march 2004), 21-38.. http://www.rcyoung.org/articles/jerusalem.pdf .
these are the conclusions of the 18-page analysis.
(1) jerusalem fell in the fourth month (tammuz) of 587 bc.
When we finally have the answer, we can then move on to the next topic of whether the leading edge of Ezekiel's Wheel within a Wheel was turning clockwise or counter-clockwise.

Thank you. I will have one ordered today and get down the basics for jw dot org before I give it to them. I can see how it would be good for someone older that cannot really read that well anymore and well, technically challenged.
I don't mind helping them but it's the same thing over and over ... can't find this, where is the remote, are the batteries good, why does the GB use Roku instead of a regular channel, blah blah blah.
Since it plugs in, they can just sit in their house and listen to the stuff all day ... that would be great for me!

Thanks for the info.
I do have an elderly uncle and aunt who struggle with technology and even have problems at times figuring the jw dot org stuff due to their eyesight. Even switching over to the Roku from the remote and then back can be a challenge. I am the one that ends up going to their place and try to explain how all the stuff works.
If the Echo does the daily text and maybe the study article from the WT for the week, that would really save me a lot of aggravation when they get "stuck" with something and I get that phone call asking for help.
I will check out the Echo since I do not have one of these devices in my own home. I do see they have a Gen 3 thing for about $100 on amazon. I also see they have a 3.5 audio jack on the back which would be good if the sound coming from the small speaker is not the best.

think of how much time and money the tower stole from any who were in the cult.
think of the vacations as a child you could have taken with your families the memories you could have made instead of sitting in a hot bs week of echo talks and propaganda.
they stole so much from us.
Nothing like spending a week in the sweltering hot July sun at Veterans Stadium
WingC ...
You are bringing back some horrid memories of the heat in that hell-hole called Veterans Stadium. Even if you were at the top in the 700 section (yellow seats) it was still hell in July/August. A stadium that was just one big circle and the field was about 30 feet below the street level. No air to circulate at all and that old Astroturf just held the heat, nothing like regular grass.
I remember a baseball game there where it was so hot, the players were taking their shoes off and soaking them between innings because their feet were so hot running on the field.
A nightmare so sit through an ass embly.
