    Its been an awesome week reading about all the latest news.

    I might have to actually attend this Sunday to hear the big announcement (maybe I will get a chance to comment in the watchtower about the great expansion going on!)

    Britian Bethel has lost more than HALF of it's staff???? To me, that is just incredible! And here they were building a NEW Branch Office HQ there, I'm assuming to handle Europe?

    That is just crazy!! What the h*ll is going on? I don't want to play into any sort of hysteria or paranoia, but that figure is really jaw-dropping on it's own, and indicative of huge problems afoot.

    Wow......just wow.

    Announced: closing down Belgium (Kraainem) and transforming Emmen (Netherlands) to an ICT service center only.

    Both country's in future under direction of Selters Branch.

    Steady ... the layoffs aren't all immediate. Some now, some by the end of December, all by the end of August.

    Slidin' Fast how reliable are your numbers for the Britian branch? That drop is unbelievable, even if it's between now and next August. Good God!
