    Just heard from a Silicon Valley elder yesterday that a number of local congregations are being dissolved and combined between Belmont and Palo Alto, Ca. on the San Francisco Peninsula. Can anyone verify this?

    Of special interest to me is the North Palo Alto Congregation that sits outside the gates of Stanford University at 429 High Street, Palo Alto. That hall must be worth upwards of 3-5 Million dollars now. Most of the Menlo Park Congregation land grab refugees from four years ago were shipped to this hall (see old posts on this). I wonder how they will take this part two.

    40 years ago "true believers" felt hundreds of "truth seeking Stanford Students would attend that hall and become Watchtower Doctors and Attorneys. 16,000+ kids a year graduate from Stanford. The number of those kids hoodwinked over the last 40 years to work for Watchtower......zero. lol.

    Updated info appreciated.

    Looks like just four congregations now, and only one English?

    It certainly looks like a true reversal of philosophy for wt. It used to be "Build and they will come".

    Now it's "Sell for they have left".

    just saying!

    This looks like stagnating, if not shrinking, attendances for if they were increasing, the amalgamations would not make sense.

    WT sells real estate for profit while masquerading as a religion/charity.

    Some how, it's proof of direction by holy spirit....
