has anyone else caught this tidbit in the new s-395 instructions?:.

"if the individual is not an apostate or actively promoting wrongdoing, they will also inform him that they would like to meet with him again in three months to determine if he has had a change of heart.

in some cases, but not all, the committee may determine that there is basis for reinstating the individual at that time".

things are changing so rapidly.

there is so much confusion now.. if we can talk to disfellowshiped/disassociated ones to invite them to meetings then is it really going to stop there?.

some family members haven’t had contact for decades and now after yesterdays new light they will all be getting calls.

on the subject of beards....i recently realized that the people in three of the youtube channels i love to watch are jw's.

i don;t want to name these channels here, but you can message me if you want to know them.

shortly after the announcement of now being allowed to have a beard, the men on these youtube channels started growing facial hair, whereas until that point, they were clean shaven.

Where is Tony?

on february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.

a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.

in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.
