Thank you for that. Another nail in the coffin for Chelmsford.

I don't get it. They still print stuff in Britain, but they ship it from Germany?! how does that work?
Update: Thanks for the post, both to you and the anonymous "donor". I guess someone is still doing a bit of shipping ;-).

They must be afraid of something that maybe coming down the pike in Britain.

I'd love to say it's punishment for the constant aloofness of the British bethel heavies and the resulting poor relationship with the US but I think it's just economics given the contraction of the WTBTS as a printing organisation. It makes more sense to have one super branch in Europe and it makes sense for that to be centrally located.

They are about to get slapped in the UK, they are just preparing for that event in advance.

I'd just like to point out that this is a letter to elders (& literature/magazines servants) and not to the congregation. So most ordinary brothers & sisters wont be aware of it - I think it needs to be leaked as much as possible.

Thank you Saltheart Foamfollower, that is an excellent point.
It was posted to other forums at the same time. Example: https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/4ogmio/20160610_transfer_of_shipping_activities_from/
I saw mention of this letter shortly there after in forums that are non-english language.
