  2. beliefs

  embedded in the cleveland ohio convention.

  pre covid attendance was always 7k+ this year 4500.. 37baptised mixed bag.

  less then half were children.. as far as patience goes, it can certainly help you be a better person when dealing with others but needless to say, this having patience waiting for jehovah is pure b.s.!

  Likes and Dislikes. How about making the identities known to the poster?

  i haven't a clue if it's technically feasible but i think if you're going to hit the dislike button on a post you should be open to discussion with the poster.. just your own topics and posts of course.

  what do you think simon?.

  Personally, I like the fact that posters have an open forum to disagree (or agree) with one another.

  My old congregation is being shuttered

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i just found out from my jehovah's witness cousin that my old congregation is being shuttered due to lack of elders, less than 20 members attending, and that the congregation cannot meet their monthly expenses.. here is a congregation that was started in 1975 with less than 15 members.

  it grew to 185 members in the 1990's.

  the congregation grew so large that the elders decided to split the congregation in two.

  The congregation that I grew up in consolidated into several other congregations a few years ago. This congregation could trace its roots back to the 1920's as it was one of the first ones out of Pittsburgh.

  Older Ex-JW Attending Mass in Historic U.S. Basilicas

  2. experiences

  i still remember the first time i commented on this board with nervous fingers barely able to press the keys.

  what triggered my entry into the forbidden was the orchestrated disfellowshipping of my then 21 year old son.. well, he's now 51, with a supportive wife, two genius sons who will never see the inside of a kingdom hall.. my first wife of 49.5 years, loyal and supportive to a fault, passed away 5 years ago.. in 2019 i married a young filipina, 33 years my junior, a nominal catholic.

  my life with her has simply been amazing and i treasure every moment.

  Elder asks my disfellowshipped cousin to leave house while grieving for his grandmother

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  fourteen years ago i started a thread on how horrible my disfellowshipped cousin was treated after his mom passed away and the terrible actions on the part of the elders at the funeral home.. 67. horrible conduct by congregation elders at my cousin's funeral.............. well, here we are 14 years later, and things haven't changed!.

  my aunt ( who is my disfellowshipped cousin's grandmother ) was placed in home hospice care.

  the nurse told her daughters ( who are jehovah's witnesses and live with their mother ) that their mom probably has 2 days left to live and that they should call the immediate family.. my disfellowshipped cousin and his sister show up in the early morning.

  @ Witness 007,

  Do you remember when we studied it? I was in until about 2015 and wondered for years when we were going to study it. But the years seem to run together, so I could be wrong.

  This has nothing to do with gun laws. If you are hell bent on getting a gun to commit a crime, you can do it. No law in the world can stop that. Same with illegal drugs. If you want them, you can get them.

  In regards to this matter, its really unfortunate that this kid killed an innocent man and that the org will not do a thing to help his family other than tell them to pray more and continue to go out in field service.
