    Isn't it interesting that the Memorial (which is pretty much a Passover event) is NOT done in one's private home just as the Passover was/is done in private homes among ancient and modern Israel. Israel didn't gather together in some huge synagogue or even at the temple--they gathered in private homes. Maybe Jesus' gathering his disciples together in the upper chamber could be used by the Society as the reason they too gather in Kingdom Halls and various auditoriums as they do. But even if that reasoning is acceptable, it still doesn't outlaw celebrathing the Memorial in one's own home, does it?

    After I was DF I was there with my family The Elders made a point of not letting me handle the emblems They took it off my 11year old son beside me and handed it to my wife who was also sitting next to me. My son said "It really is a passover Dad, it passed right over you." Love that boy Now 26 and a phsychologist.
