there was a sister in my congregation that signed up to aux pioneer one month to put in 60 hours.
we couldn't figure out why she was never at the arrangements, but yet she said she got in her time early in the month.
we found out later that we wrote a letter that took her an hour.
Some hearty pioneers used to arrange an annual fishing trip into the wilderness. They ALWAYS brought a Bible study with them to count their time, while they were on the lake drinking beer.
The sisters used a different approach. Theirs involved going to the mall.

Then she photocopied it 60 times and turned in 60 hours. The elders found out and counseled her. They then called a pioneer meeting to clarify that we should NOT do that. DANG!
What goofy stuff have you seen in counting time?
new guidelines for field service coming this summer.
new publication to be released giving new ways of counting time, conducting studies, group activities, etc..
The have to lax up a bit. People have been counting time in goofy ways for years now. After all, they have to keep their numbers up for their tax exempt status. The Jdubs, wil all say it's such a loving provision. Just like the 30 hour aux pioneering hours....After all it's just to keep their tax exempt. It's always about the money.
it was really quite amusing 2day at the meeting when we got to the "this generation will not pass away" subheading in the wt.
the conductor spent very little time on the section and the comments that were given didnt at all make sense really.
you can tell its not understood by the majority of the friendsand will go over there heads, i was trying not to laugh lol.
Sad. So very sad.
so what do you think will be the new releases this year?
it seems from everything that has been happening that there will be a new and revised reasoning book to embrase all the new 'adjustments'.
also, the proclaimers book has to revamped to take out all the things that honor russell or rutherford, after all they weren't annointed anyway.
Hello! So what do you think will be the new releases this year? It seems from everything that has been happening that there will be a new and revised Reasoning Book to embrase all the new 'adjustments'. Also, the Proclaimers book has to revamped to take out all the things that honor Russell or Rutherford, after all they weren't annointed anyway. Or are they now included in the overlapping frippery????...I forget...it's so silly.
What do you think?
just read a post on jwsurvey about the new donation arrangement.
congregations are to pledge a monthly amount to be sent to the society to fund the building of assembly halls and kingdom halls.
congregations who already have a loan from the society will no longer have to pay back the loan but the amount pledged should not be less than the current monthly repayments to the society.
breakfast of champions: You are right about Russell...Maybe that is one of the reasons for his demotion.
the next new light from the f&ds could be the tithe for jw's.
it's a logical corporate decision , needed to replace the lost income stream from the publishing side of the wt business.
they know that the kh has many inactive slugs who don't contribute any $$ to the business, so this would be the best way to milk $$ from the inactive ones.
Respectful observer: Excellent!
