    When our cong turned on us like a mob of angry villagers with pitchforks there was no one in our corner. Our crime mainly being we were not local and the local "hood" did not like outsiders. The circut o/seer (also not local) was very familiar with mafia style antics of the local body and its problems but was at a loss as to what if anything could be done about it for fear he too may end up in the river with cement shoes (metaphorically of course).

    The guy while being sympathetic to our plight basically said "be warm and well fed"and set off to a new assignment interstate.

    Well he rang up out of the blue to see "how we got on" and to "find out if any action was taken by the branch to investigate ". You know all the usual stuff - simony, nepotism, corruption and cover ups blahdy blah blah etc etc.

    DUH of course no action was taken we just had to suck it up and "leave it in Jehovahs hands"and "Jehovah" apparently saw fit to leave us swinging in the breeze. It hurt like hell at the time still does actually. So Bro 'keep warm and well fed" your phone call is JUST A TAD TOO LITTLE TOO LATE!

    Where do these people get off?

    It was a rude awakening indeed to discover that "Mother" does'nt give a flyin fig about what is happening in the congregations. But it was an awakening non the less and for that I will always be grateful. I liken it to being thrown out of your home because of civil war and when you get to the refugee camp (JWN for eg) its overflowing wth injured, traumatised, displaced people .
