    ...you're asleep in the back of the hall after the meeting while waiting for your husband to finish up another elders' meeting.

    Yeah, I remember when I was a little kid, everyone was gone from the KH except for the families of the elders. We would wait and wait and wait for HOURS.... I always wondered what they were doing and talking about in that secret back room. Well, now I know what they were doing!

    i always thought it was awful that one of our elders kids on ministry school night , the meeting ended at 9:30 pm and she'd have to go sit in the car after the meeting and do her homework from school.

    my kids were wiped out by the end of the meeting. they went to sleep on the way home from the meeting.

    You see your husband briefly between him coming home from work and going out again on a 'shepherding' visit.
