California, USA Circuit Being Dissolved
by AMNESIAN inaccording to the cos service talk this week to a local congregation, a southern california circuit is being disbanded, its congregations dispersed to other circuits.
as i was not there and did not hear his comments first-hand, i have no further information.
i doubt, however, that being there wouldve yielded much more in the way of info as i am told that, naturally, he gave no reason(s) and simply reported that this circuit would be acquiring two additional congregations while a currently-assigned one would be moving to another circuit.. while shuffling congregations among circuits is not an extraordinary occurrence here, dissolving one altogether that draws from its many urban communities is.

WTS & International DCs/Tours?
by AMNESIAN ina question ive had and not seen commented on anywhere ive visited online is:.
as you know, every so many years the society arranges international conventions in designated metropolises worldwide and sponsors tours to those convention cities for selected jw delegates to attend from around the world.. does anyone know that there is a motive or incentive on the societys part for such conventions and tours other than the bit of buzz and extraordinariness it adds to dcs everywhere that year and the fact that such seem to promote more of a sense of brotherhood among jws---seeming to yield more experiences and such---?.
i ask because my husbands and my experience on such a tour to international conventions in britain and greece in 1998 was appalling in terms of how deplorably unprofessional the jw tour groups were treated by the personnel of the travel services company the society had contracted.

LA TIMES: Losing Faith and Lots More
by AMNESIAN inanyone have any credible notion as to why jws are never one of the religions mentioned in articles like these that discuss what life becomes for those who leave the fold?.
mormons who quit the church find themselves ostracized by friends, co-workers and even families.
