For those not up-to-date on my situation ... I was disfellowshipped and I posted about it here.I wrote an appeal letter, and wrote about it here. So, I just got home from a weeks vacation, I was home for 3 hours. Got off the phone with Scully, letting her know we got here safely. I hung up the phone, and a few seconds later my phone rings. It's two elders from my hall, telling me that after "much prayerful consideration" they are going to revise their previous announcement to disfellowship me and announce on Wednesday night that I am again a Jehovah's Witness! I'll wait and listen for jaws to drop now! Mine is still on the floor! Kwin

My guess is your letter got forwarded to the branch office, an overseer there saw it, had a heated conversation with the chairmen of your hearings, told them to get their act together and they're on their own if they screw up, and you got off the hook.I appealed to the Society twice. EFG:ECH or whoever it was that wrote me back said they found no reason to question the judgments of the judicial committees, that's it, they didn't answer any of my direct questions.A little off-topic, I love Joe Malik's story about how he wrote the Society a letter and later happened upon a certain GB member who poked him in the chest with his finger and said something like, "That letter of yours stirred up a lot of trouble!" lol | ||

I'm sure their "prayerful consideration" didn't come from watching your appearance on TV. Hmmm, I think the "holy spirit" was watching MATLOCK that night. - Preston | ||

It's two elders from my hall, telling me that after "much prayerful consideration": Elder Scared of His Own shadow: I think he'll sue us and the Society may not support our decision.Elder Self-Righteous: I agree. He did make us look bad though.Elder Born in the Troof: He had no right to lie about the Society the way he did. I say let's affirm his DF'ng. Joe Hoba has appointed us and what we do has his blessing.Elder Scared of His Own Shadow: I am going to resign. You 2 can get sued if you want to. Kwin means business this time. He is not afraid of us, now.Elder Self-Righteous: Let's go to Baskin-Robbins and talk some more about this over some carrot cheesecake ice cream.Elder born in the Troof: I'll call the Society. They'll back us up.Elder Scared of His Own Shadow: I already talked to the Service department and they are not going to help us. We are on our own.All three elders: Call Kwin and tell him we are going to reinstate him.Elder Self-Righteous: Let's go get that carrot cheesecake ice cream. | ||
