  My first post

  hi, i just joined the board and wanted to present myself.. i'm active, in fact very active in congregation activities serving "where the need is great" in a foreign language congregation somewhere in western europe.

  as a young brother, i'm seen as an example as i'm doing all a good witness should do.. i had doubts years ago but i decided just to ignore them and move to another congregation to preach more.

  that worked for some years but i'm now at the exact same point.

  Leah Remini talks about her new book - October 30, 2015 at 10:00pm Eastern Time - on ABC News 20/20

  by Faithful Witness in

  first look at leah remini exclusive: 'being critical of tom cruise is being critical of scientology itself'.

  abc news.

  actress leah remini reveals in an exclusive interview with abc news 20/20 how tom cruise was one of the factors that led her to break from the church of scientology.. being critical of tom cruise is being critical of scientology itself... you are evil, remini told abcs dan harris in a new promotional clip from the interview.. remini, 45, describes how she and her family joined the church when she was a young girl, built a successful acting career in hollywood while being a diligent scientologist, and how she eventually decided to sever ties with the church.. as time goes on, you start to lose touch with the real world.

  Pledge for Global Assistance Arrangement - $15 per publisher!

  by nmthinker in

  2. beliefs

  last night our congregation read a letter for the global assistance arrangement combined with the traveling overseer assistance arrangement.

  the "recommended" amount was $15 per publisher, which was well over $1000 for our hall.. it seemed steep.

  our congregation does not have this type of money.

  My congregation elders can pledge all they want, but someone else is going to have to pony up the $30 for me and my wife. I really hope the congregation just defaults on it's pledge or the elders who pledge it end up making up the difference.

  Lol, i'm right there with you, tim310rd. My husband wasnt there for the announcement, so unless someone else tell him, he will not find out about it. I guess there will probably be a local needs about this in a few months if people dont pony up.

  Yeah, something doesn't sound right. They read our letter last week here's the post about it.

  http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/4867658067476480/global-assistance-arrangement-2016-service-year

  What's interesting is, it doesnt seem to be the same fund that was set up last year for KH Construction. Maybe they changed the name since they've halted most construction. I wouldnt be surprise if it was an effort to get both funds. But regardless our congregation only pledged for about the same amount as sent last year.
