Has anyone a copy of the recent BOE about contributions to disaster fund?
by tezrichmond inthere was a boe recently (in last few weeks) about everyone in congregation contributing so much towards repairing kingdom hall's in emergencies, vandalism or disasters etc.
does anyone have a copy - i couldn't find it on here.. i want to do a video on this because they say they don't solicit funds but it was announced from the platform????
they might not be passing a collection plate around, but they're just doing it in a different way.. .

If they have payed attention and studied wt info, the dead are brought back to life, and judged on the way they behave from that point forward! I have had that understanding all my life!

Do you remember the 15 minute break at the Sun. meeting?
by 3rdgen ina poster on another thread reminded me of when there was a 15 min.
break between the talk and the wt study on sundays.
the break was supposed to be to allow jw's time to drive their bible studys home from the talk.

My dad always parked at the end of the street, so he could go smoke during the break.
Anyone remember when the written review, was taken up and graded? The first congregation i remember, they toom them up and passed them out on opposite sides if the hall for grading. We also had a blackboard, with publishers names on it, with the garde posted, along with our weekly fs report, and monthly Avg, listed for all to see!

A QUESTION FOR JW'S who say, "The brothers were overly zealous" about 1975
by Terry in"what was the actual significance of that year, then?".
if jw's were overly zealous, what was the exact amount of zeal encouraged by the wts for a non-event which took up.
over 7 years of every jw's time?.

Ri was around for all the hype, leading up to 75, it was NEVER a few overzealous jw's jumping the gun! It all came from on high. F. Franz came to a special event in Alabama, around 74, he spoke very frankly about the excitement building at bethel, and with friends from around the world, reports were coming in, of so many turning there hands to the pioneer service, and that those in school, should also turn to that never to be repeated work, that was rushing to keep up with the kingdom!
At the urging of the co, and elders, I and so many quit school, and set out to pioneer!

Sad to say i heard it on the phone. One way out there case, likened jw's org to a protective jail cell, that were all put in for our own good. Then she went on to say how some are just not happy, and keep tryingtrying to break free! And end up in terrible shape lost on the outside, so wishing they were back in!

Will They Continue To Take Your Money After Booting You Out?
by steve2 inautomatic bank payments & being disfellowshipped.
as noted on this site, the organization has in place numerous electronic provisions for people to donate money, ranging from one-off payments through to monthly automatic payments from donors' bank accounts into the organization's.. this is all well and good - and consistent with what lots of organizations - religious or otherwise - do.. but, should a donor be disfellowshipped - or disassociated - is the pre-selected donation provision stopped by the organization itself?
do they have any policy at all on it?

They will keep cashing checks dfed people write!
I have known a few true believers that were dfed, and felt it was justified. They kept right on dropping checks in the box, and the elders involved, said it was proof of repentance, that they were still donating!
