    Hello,

    On my post asking about the WTS Valley Farms, Osarsif posted an interesting link to a french web site which has a list of the different WTS corporations among them there is this one:

    Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of Florida, Inc. (Incorporated 1986)

    President : Leonard R. Pearson
    Vice-Presidents : Alejandro G. Rodriguez, Maurice C. Turcot
    secretary : Mark L. Questell
    Directors : Jim Moody, Sr., Anselm J. Packnett, Donald R. Krebs

    What is this a seaside resort owned by the GB at Miami beach or somthing? If so do they give discounts to inactive JW's? and

    Ciao

    I believe there is enough genuinely wrong with the Society that it is not necessary to invent speculations and exagerations. It is counterproductive and destroys your own credibilty.

    Please give it a rest. Yes, the Society has money, but I don't believe they are doing improper things with it so that any person or group of persons benefits to the point of living a lavish lifestyle on the backs of the brothers.

    ahh, a voice of reason...

    I don't condone the wrong things the WTS does, but it does detract from our voice of reason when speculations are added to fuel the fire.

    Then again, Gianluca may have been just making a joke!

    G'day guys,

    The Society uses a number of corporations around the world for various purposes.

    For example, here in Australia we have two corporations:

    Watchtower Bible & Tract Society of Australia

    Jehovah's Witnesses Congregations

    The Florida corporation is simply another one in the stable.

    Cheers,

    ozzie

    Dear pathofhorns

    The WTS of Florida does exist. I wanted to know what it was used for.

    The comment on the seaside resort was not a speculation but was supposed to be a joke.... i guess my sence of humour it too Italian.....

    I believe the Florida corporation is used to run the orchards that the Society uses to grow fruit to eat at Bethel.
