Creative ways of counting field service time
by 4thgen inthere 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.

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?

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.

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?

Is this new donation arrangement for real?
by nugget injust 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.

Would you still be a JW, if you had to Tithe?
by moshe inthe 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.

What a set up!
RNWT Mal 3:10: "Bring in the entire tithe* into the storehouse, so there may be food in my house..."
*or all "tenth parts" Lit. empty out.
That is part of the plan. It makes me sick. No wonder they wanted to print a new Bible. Yes, it's the NWT for Dummies.
***Proclaimers book (1993) jv chap. 21 p. 340 How Is It All Financed? ***As early as the second issue of the WatchTower,in August 1879, Brother Russell stated: “‘Zion’s Watch Tower’ has, we believe, JEHOVAH for its backer, and while this is the case it will never beg nor petition men for support. When He who says: ‘All the gold and silver of the mountains are mine,’ fails to provide necessary funds, we will understand it to be time to suspend the publication.”
