stillajwexelder
Sorry people - not been on here for ages. Getting on with life and all that. I still attend some meetings.
I want to be lazy and wonder if somebody could post some bullet points on what has happened in the last 12 months.
Here is what I already know.
1. Raymond Franz died
2. KM School - new elders textbook - posted online before many elders have seen it - priceless!
3. Hawaii branch closed and comes under US branch - Sept 2010
4. Irish branch closing and coming under the oversight of the British Branch - many Irish brothers pissed off by this. Jan 2011 I think
Any other brief updates would be appreciated
