    GOALS

    To get to the meeting ahead of time,
    And at the book counter to wait in line,
    To be present and comment at every meeting,
    To welcome strangers with a greeting.
    To visit a sick one and encourage,
    To avoid wrong speech that will discourage.
    To strive to all the fruits display,
    To not neglect the need to pray.
    To help to clean the Kingdom Hall,
    To cheer someone with a telephone call.

    To teach my child with the use of pictures.
    To come to the aid of those who lack,
    To read the magazines from front to back.
    To correctly fill out the subscription blanks,
    To welcome the speaker and tell him thanks.
    To greet one another with a smile,
    To work on that great big magazine pile.
    To put an end to a malicious story,
    To seek first the kingdom, and not to worry.
    To answer mildly when someone mocks,
    To not forget the contribution box.
    To keep my Bible clean and neat,
    To occasionally take a front row seat.
    To really rehearse my student talk,
    To watch how we speak and how we talk.

    To get the seven times prophecy clearer.
    To prepare my assignment well in advance,
    To show a quiet and mild spirit, the truth to enhance.
    To share an experience I had in the field,
    To study and build up strong faith as a shield.
    To be at the circuit assembly each session,
    To strive to make true peace my possession.

    To concentrate on the talk and not fall asleep,
    to grasp a new point or something that's deep.
    To turn your report in before someone asks,
    To willingly do a few menial tasks.
    To show an interest in the old and young,
    To think of your works before using the tongue.
    To read all the chapters assigned for the week,
    And always the others advantage to seek.
    To auxiliary pioneer at least once a year,
    To informally witness without any fear.
    To stay for the service meeting following the school,
    To remember to stress that God's Kingdom will rule.
    To give a fine witness by conduct alone,
    To submit as a wife to the head of the home.
    To remember that scripture, and read today's text,
    To consider your mate's view, and your own wishes next.
    To underline the answer in each paragraph,
    To hear a wrong comment and try not to laugh.
    To stay out in the service a little bit longer,
    To sing the kingdom songs a little bit stronger.
    To listen intently to the prayer and then,
    To respond when its over with a heartfelt "AMEN."

    I am continually amazed at what some will post to be upbuilding to their brothers and sisters in this cult.

    This must be the result of years brainwashing. When someone is feed garbage constantly, they end up vomiting it back up. It is hard to believe that someone could be this zealous.

    pseudo, it was like reading 10 years of KMs condensed in one list. I think Brooklyn has this list and trots out 5 or 6 in every KM recycling them every year. It makes you feel like a child.

    I was told that there was a rule in the New Boy Book at Bethel that says, "Please remember to flush thoroughly."

    I don't think you did, pseudo.
