  20 family are going but they all shun me for missing meetings and asking critical questions .

  I would go and record it .

  But I would rather watch football with my non-witness family .

  Sorry for asking--is this annual meeting being held worldwide on the same date?

  I haven't heard about this in our congregation meetings recently. Maybe I just missed the announcement..

  Question for any in the know. My wife and are are technically inactive. We go to some meetings, but many people probably don't know that we haven't turned in time in a while.

  We have been encouraged by family members to go. But according to this original letter, there are tickets involved. Is that still the case?

  Are inactives, who "need encouragement" invited? or...would they (us) be turned away???

  Thanks for anyone in "the knowing" class who can answer this question for me.

  Here in the UK it is a ticket only bash.

  To qualify you have to be:-

  • Elder/wife
  • MS/wife
  • Pioneer
  • Big donator

  Thanks St George!

  Any 'Mericans out there too?? I imagine it's the same in the U.S.

  Why would we be encouraged to go if we need to have tickets, unless they have a couple of extras. But then again, I am sure only the sec. is authorized to hand them out to regulars. hmmmm?

  U.S. active undercover elders....any answers? Thank-you!!

  Here in the U.S., I don't know about the invitation, but my wife is going and her husband is inactive and no longer a meeting attender and she does not match one criteria on St. George's list. Different rules for Americans I guess.

  In my area of the U.S. all baptized and unbaptized publishers and thier children are invited. No tickets required.

  kiddingMe, this is the second time I read this. So I guess the ticket buisness is not happening in the U.S. I heard it from 2 witnesses. It's answered as far as I am concerned! ;-)

  I doubt they would deny enterance to an inactive one, and how would they even know if that many people are streaming in. My wife wants to go. I told her I am not going, period.
