  February 28, 2017 TO ALL BODIES OF ELDERS Re: Visiting Disfellowshipped or Disassociated Individuals

  This direction replaces what is stated in the Shepherding textbook, chapter 10, paragraph 1. Each elder should cross that paragraph out and make the following notation in the margin: “See letter dated February 28, 2017, to all bodies of elders.”

  She should have gone to Spanish! We don't have the New "new songbook" (grey).

  We sing from the old "new songbook". (Yes, the one that had the possibly obscene drawing on the back).

  1. Have her install their JW Library app on her phone.

  2. Add Shepherd the flock of God ks10-A in Arabic.

  3. Have her read their horrible rules in her own language.

  4. Uninstall the app.

  5. Request to be put on the "DO NOT CALL" list.

  I'm looking, but the oldest I'm finding is 1960: https://archive.org/details/Atalaya1960

  Have you tried some of the ExTJ forums?

  If nothing turns up, Are there specific pages you are looking for? I would like to know, in case I come across a bound volume at some random KH or Home. I could sneak some pictures.

  Elders initial letters from WT When read

  by Lostandfound in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  one of my abiding memories of the truth was after hard work for years as secretary and then presiding overseer.

  three new younger 'pioneers' appointed who clearly wanted the position.

  well i did not want it and could see the future chaos and self aggrandisement such younger ones would lead to if given , what they was as, positions of influence.. circuit visit elders meeting with co, i always checked which elder had worked with co and likely brownosed and clawed their way up the appointment ladder.

  There were guys like this among my peers at Bethel. Everyone knew who the ambitious ones were.

  No thank you! You can have the spotlight.

  The requested letters are tough to find, because they have been replaced by newer instructions. The instructions were to destroy them.

  December 6, 2010 TO ALL BODIES OF ELDERS Re: Correspondence from branch office and congregation file

  This letter replaces the letters dated February 15, 2002, December 4, 2008, and December 5, 2008, to all bodies of elders. Those letters should be removed from the congregation permanent file of policy letters and be destroyed.
