Mentioned some of these in passing to my wife and she said "perhaps the work is nearing it's end".
Fecking cult.

The WTS did have a substantial decrease in 1977 and 1978 (shortly after the debacle of 1975)
*** yb79 p. 23 1979 Yearbook of Jehovah’s Witnesses ***
There has been an overall 1.4-percent decrease in the number of Kingdom publishers. This has had a bearing on the decline in other features of the work as far as the totals are concerned
*** yb78 p. 32 1978 Yearbook of Jehovah’s Witnesses ***
Kingdom preaching activity from 216 countries under the supervision of 96 branches reached a peak of 2,223,538 publishers. This was a decrease when compared with the year 1976. There are various factors contributing to this. With a decrease in the number of those reporting, it is understandable that the hours spent (321,424,305) of those reporting would be less. .
