Try this link.. It will show MOST of the financials for all congregations that are listed on this website.
towards the end of last year, the witnesses in scotland had their own assembly hall opened in the town of livingston, near edinburgh the capital.. this was achieved no doubt by blood, sweat, and tears by many over a very long period - as well as by donations of witnesses from all over scotland and its islands, not forgetting the levy per publisher imposed on all the congregations in the guise of "donations"!.
was the org grateful for the sacrifices which were made to bring a great "shout of praise" to whoever?
nope!

Mosis - It's really awesome that you have a desire to Serve Jehovah..Whether you decide to serve him in the Kingdom Hall, or not please remember that your loyalty should always be to God and no one else. Along your spiritual Journey you will encounter many individuals or organizations biding for your time, your mind and your devotion.. Do not follow anyone except for Jehovah! Do not follow any example except for Jesus' example.
You absolutely are good enough, to be accepted by Jehovah, and your thinking that you Are not acceptable is proof that you are acceptable.
Luke 14:11 - " For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."
2 Samuel 22:28 " You save the humble, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them low."
Humility & Love are the 2 most important qualities that you can develop..
If I can give you some very valuable advice.. Pray to Jehovah honestly, and sincerely and ask him to lead you to the Truth, make a promise to him that you willl follow his direction ANYWHERE it leads you.. if you pray this and mean it, you will quickly understand who Jehovah truly is.
Shalom
i was watching a video on youtube about chistianity and its founding and it came to my attention that the city of nazareth did not even excist when jesus was said to be alive.
it was'nt really anything accept a cemetary until about 200 ad.
so just like the city of goshen were the israelites were said to be from when they left egypt during the exodus, looks like another major flaw in the bible..
Can you please post a link to the video crazy?
if this were the "organization" that jesus chose in 1914.. err 1919, wouldn't the principles that he laid out while on earth apply to this organization as well?.
matthew 5:42 "give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you.".
so if jw's all asked for loans from the org, every now and then, it would be the orgs responsibility to grant those loans (interest free).
Lol @ logcon
