I concentrate real hard on what is being said and NOT said. Listening for spin and untruths.
When that fails or I get too agitated, I look at the people and try to figure out why THEY are there.
for family reasons, gorby and his wife and children has to visit the hall at april 14. our family accept that we are faders, but don't accept if we do not visit the memorial.. so, it seems a small investment: one evening love bombing for a year peace and rest.. but i hate the visit.
headache.
meeting the people knowing it's all fake love showing.. how do you get through it?.

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.
Garage Sales! Yes! There was a sister at our last hall who was known for that. She would even have parts on the Service Meeting. Others in my old halls thought that was deplorable.

Just Kidding, yep you reminded me of that....I saw the golfing thing before. As a matter of fact, one of the brothers who were counting time, got beaned in the head while on the golf cart. It was a congregation joke for a long time. (Maybe he should have had his head examined!)

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.
