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.”

i went to meeting today and the sister in front of me was upset song 134 now song 139 no longer contains jehovahs name.
they took it out.
i never even noticed .
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).

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.
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.
will you be a survivor of the last days?.
serving with jehovah’s unified organization.
move ahead with jehovah’s unified organization.
