this year as with every previous year a letter was read on how we can honor jehovah by helping to clean the stadium where the district convention is held.. does the watchtower get a break on the rent if the dubs do a major cleaning of the stadium?

sounds like slave labour to me.. .

hoser.

Makes me wonder what arrangement they make with the stadiums. I know the last couple of weeks there has been a real push to take time off work and go to the pre-cleanining. They even want the dubs to bring buckets and mops.

I have been wondering what happens in places where unions are in place. How could watchtower get away with cleaning in cities where cleaning staff is unionized?

i ask this because the wt always bangs on about if you trust in jehovah and make that leap into pioneering, you will always be provided for.

at the time i joined the cult, a friend was continuous aux.

pioneering.

we had a days notice they were coming.

they stayed 1.5 days and left today because they couldn't miss the wt back home.

Through the years we have camped with families that would bring all their meeting clothes and books. It was as if lighting would strike and kill them if they missed.
