i have served 20 years as an elder, 5 years as an ms. was on the district committee in 2010, held various positions on the district , circuit, and rbc level.
probably been on more than 100 judicial committees and even an appeals committee.
was the coordinator in our congregation and deleted because adult child was df ( i kicked him out at the time of his wrongdoing, but that wasn't enough for thr brothers).
You'll find many of us here. Former elders who were kicked in the teeth by others who were jealous of our perceived standing among the brothers or some other stupid thing. Likely you will feel sadness for a while over this. It will pass. As it's been said don't let the 'bast...s' get you.
Have great day.

i ate at brooklyn bethel twice, 23 years apart.
both times it was fried pork chops, mash potatoes and apple sauce.. just lois.
We enjoyed breakfast Saturday and Sunday mornings at Cadman Plaza restaurant. Pancakes and real bacon and fried eggs and on Sunday the Times and Daily News.
what is your take on the latest from adobe and their lease only option for future versions of their software?
pay the monthly fee or lose the use of the program..
I don't object to SaaS if I know going in the rules. I have a program at the office that is subscription based. I chose that and knew going in what my obligations were. I object to changing horses mid stream as it were.
I can't believe that all software will becom 'leased' as the mom and pops of the world will just abandon computing. Maybe I'm wrong in my observations. Time will tell. In the meantime I'll look for other venues.

brinjen: thanks for the observations. Where all this will lead who knows. I'll continue my search for a new vendor, sure don't want to get stuck a year from now with onerous changes.

The student discount is great for those that can get it. But if you sell your work you're "supposed" to pay the full ride.I'm using CS5 and Lightroom. Won't move on with Creative cloud. Concerned that if for some reason I can't pay the monthly fees anymore I'll lose my ability to open Adobe files or in the case of my Lightroom work lose all the adjustements I've made. I know they said LR5 will be a perpetual license, but what about the future releases?
Searching now for alternatives.
After yesterday and before tomorrow.

i usually shop for most things at wal mart but i have learned some things at publix and kroger are cheaper than wal mart.
if you are conscious shopper, tell me what things do you buy at each store to save some money!
i am thinking about being a member of bj, if you know of any good deals at bj, let me know too.
We shop Publix for most things. Target for others. No Kroger here.
We avoid Walmart. In fact haven't spent a dime there in years. We believe their staff pholosophy is an insult to all workers. They make big noises about employee benefits, but few actually seem to be granted full time status to be able to earn benefits.
sorry it's gonna be long winded.
i've done my best to reconstruct from memory.
my husband was next to me the whole time.
They are looking to trap you with eloquent words. Continue to turn the tables back on them and don't answer when you don't want to. Tell them you need to do more research to settle your own questions which are no ones business but yours, "since you do not wsih to be accused of spreading" doubts.
As to Korah- ask them if he will get a resurrection - likely they will say no. The read them the scripture "So down they went, and all who belonged to them, alive into She′ol..." Guess they will get a resurrection per WT understanding of Sheol.
so i'm young enough to not remember having hot prepared meals at assemblies, but heard all about it from my parents and the like.
but what i do remember were all of the cold sandwiches and institutional snacks and soda.
remember the food tickets we started to use?
JeffT: Jack Daniels and other special spirits in our motor home during the session with the convention heavies.
Can't think of one assembly food item that could be called a favorite.
Always felt sorry for those brothers that slaved away in the kitchen during the hot meal days.
