  Heads Up: If you are an older JW, WT has no further use for you!

  by AndDontCallMeShirley in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  wt is retiring district overseers, has sent older jws serving at bethel packing despite years of faithful service, and as of june 1, 2014, has announced that any elder that has reached 80 years of age is no longer valued or wanted as a cobe.

  in wt land it would appear that older people have little or no value, and wt sees no reason to use them in any meaningful capacity.

  i wonder how this makes older ones feel after devoting their lives to wt's interests while shelving their own hopes and dreams?.

  Talking to 2 diiferent "Brothers" about this (Elders in their late 40's), they like this new arrangement and can't wait to dicuss it at the next Elder's meeting.

  One Brother said his COBE is 75 and loosing it. He has been "yelling at young kids in the Hall to stop playing at every meeting", upsetting several parents. Also he accused an Mature Brother having an affair with a young Sister(no facts, just running his mouth). He also lost 3 different checks, 1 was to be given to the CO( this Brother had audited the accounts, and noticed 3 voided checks, replacements issued in a 3 month period).

  The other Brother said the COBE in his congregation is 78, just delegates all his responsibilities out to other Elders, but likes being the COBE!

  before i dive into the actual write-up of this experience, let me put some things straight.. i have thought long and hard if i should write more about my experiences during the 10+ years at different branches.

  during these years i worked from financial department, service department, home office and different it assignments.

  as you can imagine one sees and hears and reads a lot of stuff going through different stations in different countries.

  I believe Marvin is a woman we all know and love and is very involved with the Child Sex cases the Watchtower has tried to keeo quiet about.

  The CO visit this week he says" In August..."

  up until 5 years ago, the co used to work up their own parts for specfic congregations in their circuits.

  everything is up to script, in other words, every co in the country are givings the same talks in the local congregations they visit.

  what got me to cringe is when he said at the meeting, trying to encourage everyone to pioneer this august; he said :" you know this october it will be 100 years since gods kingdom began ruling, remember what happen when joshua told the israelites to march around jericho on the seventh day, and what happened when they let out a great war cry?

  He was equating the fall of Jericho, with the fall of this "System of Things".

  He also said: "From a Biblical stand point, October is a month that many Bible Prophecies get fulfilled".

Everything is up to script, in other words, every CO in the Country are givings the same talks in the local congregations they visit.

"

  "Friends, this could be your last time for you to show your love and zeal for Jehovah by Pioneering in August".

  I told my wife, " I can't believe this is in his outline, I will wait to see what happens come November".
