SO WHERE CAN I FIND THE LATEST JW ANNUAL REPORT POSTERS ARE QUOTING?
by steve2 inon a couple of threads, posters are quoting the latest jw publisher figures for various countries (france, uk, usa) and, based on the figures they're quoting, these would appear to be the very latest avilable.
however, no ones answering my query about which thread has the details or - better yet - a scanned copy of the report.
note: i'm not referring to the annual report that came out in the watchtower last february (2007), but the one that is due out in our kingdom ministry for february 2008 and the 2008 yearbook - both of which should have been "released" to the congregations by now.

Census & Publisher Trends for JWs in Australia, Canada & New Zealand: 1996-2016
by steve2 ini have graphed jw census and average publisher data from 3 countries with similar western democratic governments: australia, canada and new zealand (nz).
the census data is sourced from respective government publications and average publishers from jw organization yearbooks.. census data is incomplete either because a country did not have a census in the year under review or results from 2016 for that country are not currently available or i have not been able to source the data.
i welcome others filling the gaps!.

Bible Student Sister Cora Sumdbom's Story from 1962 about early days of WT and Dawn split
by steve2 inwhat an affectionate account - her warmish memories about "brother russell" stand out.
she was totally wrapped up in the organization.
i note the routine manner in which she recounts christmas at bethel and buying a christmas present for russell (a comfortable chair).

some posts have alluded to less than impressive stats for auxiliary pioneers; however, another poster said that the peak number of publishers was up by about 30,000 +.
it would be helpful to have the figures on hand..

How to Tell If Your Child Is Ready for Baptism
by steve2 inlocal authority regulations for water hygiene stipulate your child should not be of an age in which diapers are still in use.
incontinence is not good for impression management.. when asked the (current) baptism questions, it is strongly preferable that your child have some language facility.
answering with one "gaga" for no's and two "gagas" for yes's is similarly not good for impression managrment.. the governing body trusts the following two examples will help earnest parents make the best decision for their young children if the question of their wanting to be baptized arises:.
