You got to be joking! Again with the locusts?
I liked the old Woodworth application of “going to and fro” in Daniel to modern steam trains, when are they going to bring that back?

They are almost through and nothing about locusts so far.

Annual meeting was held on September 11, according to the latest Update #8.
That was not the AGM, it was the Gilead Graduation and meal (5:40) AGM should have been today (02-10-21), first Saturday of October.

We had a wealthyish elder in our hall that used to attend the agm. When he would come back the publishers would hang around him to get little scraps of information of what went on. My how the internet has levelled the playing field. We get to know what’s going on in the organization often before the elders do ironically from an anti Jehovah’s Witness web site.

Circa 18 centuries before the the Pennsylvania corporation came into existence a first Annual Meeting took place at Pentecost 33 CE.
I doubt there was a chairman at Pentecost 33 CE. But I bet their was a chairman for this one.
At Pentecost 33 CE they only had 'a' governing body. But 2021, WT has THE Governing Boty.

AM, you would be surprised there were actually two. the texts read that the 'first voice' switched between Peter and someone else (dont remember the details) it was used by wt inc to introduce the rotating elder arrangement in the early 1970ies.
A surprising arrangement with many benefits for the congregations. The narcissists hated it. soon it was back to the "gifts of god to men" bullies at the top. after 1975, downhill it went.
