Congregation Picnics
by Funchback inmy former congregation usually had a congregation picnic once a year.
all of the brothers (a/k/a men) had to pay for all of the food.
the sisters (a/k/a women) had the godly priviledge of serving the food.

Disturbing thread.
It's blocked out of my memory, but I believe at one someone brought an accordian (the piano/air mattress).
I remember a WT where the PR spin was that someone brought an accordian to an event and it was so lovely.
So someone followed the "tip." -

Met,
I tell you, I wanted to be a CO so bad.
And to be honest, I think I would have made a really good one.
Of course, there's no way now - mostly because I "know too much."
But back then, that was my life goal.
My now ex-wife and I pioneered for 10 years.
We purposely didn't have children.
And it was our goal to be in the Circuit work by 35. MY age now.
We were planning to be debt free and have enough money to keep one home paid for and some money in the bank.
I make a very good financial living, so it was very possible to be "retired" by 35.
It's a sore subject for me, because I was an MS for almost 10 years. And pioneered all that time.
And the FREAK'IN elders were so freakin jealous of me because I made so much money that they never made me an elder.
How do you pioneer and be an MS for 10 years and bring 8 people into the truth (tm) and not become an Elder!!!
Even the guy I studied with became and elder.
That was the begining of my spiral downward (or upward - depending on how you look at it.)
It's ok, though.
But to say that they are stuck in their jobs??? If I was them, back then, I would have welcomed it.
BTW, the one "good thing" was that I knew that I would never want to resent ANYTHING that I did in the truth (tm).
In a way, I partly regret not having children.
But I worked to make a lot of money, because there would be NO WAY that I was going to come off the Circuit Overseer list at 55 and try to find a job again.
I figure if I was going to do this, and do this happily. That I would need to "retire" from the Circuit work and have a home to come back to and some money.
Wow!!
I said a lot here.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to read this.
It hurts so much, because I gave my LIFE to this organization. And when I struggled with problems, they said F- YOU to me. -

Official - There are 6 million Bible Studies - but where are they?
by truthseeker inthis was mentioned at the service meeting.. but, it should be worrying to the society, not as wonderful as it may sound.
the number getting baptized each year is shrinking rapidly.. at one time, they boasted of baptizing 1000 dubs a day which equals to 365,000 dubs.
this was back in 1997.. at the dc this year, it was 5,000 a week.

Me and my wife were pioneers for 8ish years.
And between us both, we brought 8 people or so into the truth (tm).
We did have a lot of legit bible studies.
At one time we had about 5 or 6 each... about what you would need between us both to bring in one person a year into the truth (tm).
I'm sure we were the exeption.
But at the same time. A lot of our studies were like "Low End" people.
And when I say that, I say that respectfully, because I came into the "truth" from the world so to speak.
Many of our studies were like alcoholics or living in the projects and stuff like that.
But I have to say, that the people that did come into the truth were pretty sharp people.
