I went to both meetings this week. There was no letter read....Did anyone else have this announced?
(not doubting you - just wondering how widespread this announcement has been)

They can scream and demand all they want but the waters are drying up. The generation that gave the most financially is dwindling. The new generation doesn't have any extra disposible cash to give to the society.

an elder came on the platform to announce that the Society needs more money
For what? Didn't they just sell Crooklyn Bethel for a ka-jillion dollars? They don't pay Bethelites for their wages (except for the $100/month pocket money) and they sure as hell don't give any to charity........Maybe it's time they bring back food services at the ASSemblies. LOL.

From what I've read, their real estate sales have actually been below market values.
It's more reminiscent of a liquidation of assets than it is a surge in profits.
Just my opinion.

I mean, isn't this old system -- including its monetary system -- about to be destroyed at Armageddon any day now?
Where is the GB's faith in their own teachings?
