    Hi all,
    A friend of mine's daughter has a friend at school who is a JW. She cannot invite the frined to her birthday celebration at home as that would offend. However, they are going swimming to the local pool.

    So can her JW friend come?

    Please forgive my ignorance, all I know so far it that JWs do not celebrate birthdays, New Year etc.


    Many thanks in advance.

    do you mean the B-day party is at a local pool or that perhaps your daughter and your friends duaghter are swimming and want to invite her along?

    Either way, the JW probably wont be allowed. Defintiley no for B-day either way. And not for worldly association at the pool either. Sorry. I lived it.... I know.

    It really depends on the parents of the child. Some JWs would allow it, some wouldn't. I suggest asking anyway.

    I found an outdoor pool in the winter that was wonderful. La Quinta in south San Fran. Hot and steamy. No rain but really cold once you got out. Brrrrrrrrr.
