Has anyone heard any info about the backpack in the US? There's a topic with about 10 pages about it over in the spanish forum. http://www.extj.com/showthread.php?22472-La-mochila
Here is the post from Google Translate
Meeting. Thursday. 20:50 hours. "The needs of the congregation." Needs are deleted and reads a letter. I almost peed from laughter! Or how I could not hold the laughter in full session! I think in my 9 decades attending meetings, I have never heard such jilipollez board. Is the topic? The backpack. (Attached the printed distributed at the meeting all present where the articles list must contain the backpack and a column for the successive revisions of its contents). The backpack. It seems that the CG is bored and has nothing more interesting to do than regulate down to the smallest detail of our lives. We like we're fools, idiots, imbeciles, poor, retarded, idiots, stupid, foolish, or abnormal (not subnormal, they have my respect and appreciation). I thought that the CG was to give us the food "spiritual" in due time, but I see that, for a long time, someone has gotten out the clip (Spanish expression) and has lost its way. They have lost sight of what their role and what they are. Let's see, CG. What should you see your role as spiritual food cooks and also you will serve us in the table, warm, with how we have to act and regulate down to the smallest detail of our private lives, as in the case at occupies a catastrophe? Do you think you can? Where in the Bible states that your performance would go beyond the mere provision of spiritual food and assuming the role "the diligence of a good father"? Parents already are a few. Others, who are not, are also sensible and well furnished their heads. Most of us are diligent and responsible. CG need not "that" kind of advice or guidance. Engaged the congregation needs to show us that we have to prepare for a "supposed" disaster, uncertain, insecure, ... I think ... to see how I say it mildly ... an insult to the intelligence and reason and interference in personal autonomy. CG who you think you are? What do you think are the government authorities, agencies and Civil Protection, ... etc. Do not you have anything better to do, for example, worry that the elderly make pastoral visits "every year" or enhance the quality of love from the top of the organization down to the last monkey, for example (I mean the love of truth, the real, not affected, the false, the pose, the look good)? AWAY a little thing and imanaros this, instead of TJ, I had done the Catholic Church, Protestant, Muslim, Jewish, Pentecostal, ... what would you think of them? What are some taraos? Well, the same of us ... One last note: Can you imagine that submissive sister, who goes and pays attention to the aforementioned "suggestion" and prepares a backpack with the suggested content? What a shame! And long story if three, four, five, six or more family members. Do three backpacks, four, five, ...? Where do we store? A more junk in the house? And what of those very few brothers and sisters who have no resources to eat and now they are told they have to mount a "grab-bag", which will be updated regularly, with the resources they have and everything "just case "? And at headquarters and branches? Enabled and saved many backpacks as brothers and sisters working there, ... 100, 200, 500, 1,500 backpacks? Honestly, I do not think so. The CG is losing his mind, intruding into what nobody sends suggesting idiotic as a cathedral and making us incurring a waste, which, incidentally, do not pay them. How easy is absurd suggestions! ! Since they do not cost a penny! Just missing that in April or May Ministry come you can request special request approved WT backpack with a family photo silkscreen CG. Oh my God! Which organization ...!
