Yeah, I'm still waiting for some more confirmation.
I'm suspecting it's just a rumor?
Pioneer hours change

One thing some of you might find interesting is that the Circuit Overseers are not required to make pioneer hours.
When I was a C.O., from 1993 to 2000, I put in 90 plus hours each month. I went in streetwork and evening witnessing. I have a lot of energy and I liked to support the pioneers. Then my District Overseer showed me the letter, it said that while Circuit Overseers are pioneers, they have other responsibilities, such as to shepherd the flock, so the 90 hours was not a requirement. They "encouraged" us to put in at least 80 hours, though.

It's looking distinctly like a hoax now.
Unless we've been expecting the wrong thing at the right time ...

Man this isn't true? You got to be joking!
I told my wife's 78 year-old grandmother who is a pioneer that the hours were coming down and she was delighted.
Shame on you if this was made up.

Yes confirmation would be helpful. These do look like common sense changes...if they are true.

As of Sept. 2, our congregation has heard nothing about it. No BOE letter, nothing.
Do you suppose it could have been an attempt to track down a Bethel mole? "We suspect Brother X is leaking info. Tell him, and him alone, this rumor, and see if it pops up on the apostate boards."

Maybe someone will hear tonight if they have an early school , or maybe the timing is off on this announcement, or maybe it was just a rumor, which would be too bad for those of us who mentioned it to active JWs.
