if i've got something wrong here, i welcome any corrections in my understanding;.
1. circuit assembly costs are funded by each congregation in the circuit contributing from their kh funds.. 2. donations are requested during the c.a.
program to offset the costs of 'providing' the facilities.. if the c.a.
Don't forget that the circuit has to pay for the "special" speaker thay fly in from bethel!
i am currently on a business trip for a trade show in another city.
as i'm walking to the convention center, i run into 2 jw's preaching.
one is about mid 60s the other probably mid 30's.
I like it! I have spent a long time having greta debates on dogma in my head! But this is so simple, in fact it is "do-able".
Thank you.
how many here are (a) ex-jw, (b) non-jw with jw relatives or spouses, (c) inactive jw, or (d) active jw who stay in for your own reasons?.
Officially Inactive [over 8 years now!!] Class myself as an ex-jw, treated like one when i see them anywhere! Happy about it too!
Hi and congrats on the time out! We have now been unattending for just over 8 years! Very nice

if they were able to win on this ground, they could get out completely (although it could still be appealed to the ca supreme court).
Many times when taking a meeting for fs did I end up having to take other peoples children with me because they had too many and they couldn't take 3 or 4 to a door!
Thanks for the awesome summary and the extra comments and letters
it's not just the 'generation' of 1914 that is now gone; so has the 'great multitude' that judge rutherford presumptously declared existed in 1935. probably all of the persons who identifed themselves as members of the 'great multitude' at that convention in 1935 are now deceased.. decades later, in the 1990's, the society came up with 'new light' that the 'great growd' of revelation 7 does not form until the future great tribulation.
so all those people that stood up in 1935, and those who since believed they were members of a great crowd who would survive an impending great tribulation, were misled.
the isaiah's prophecy book hails this as an "outstanding moment in the ongoing fulfillment of...prophecy.".
"Millions Now Living Will Never Die"... what a dic#
at the request of some, i have gone through many of my posts of the last 3 years to collect all my methods i used to awaken my children to the truth about the truth.. from oldest to newest (i will do them in a few posts so its not an endless scroll thru).
had a bit of a chat today about the internet (which i know he likes to use at my place).
in his use of the net today i found one site he visited was one i had visited to get a pdf of a society publication.
Well done Oz... you should write a book, wait on, you have. Great work, you should be proud of yourselves! All three of you.
i am still new to the business of fading and once i stop attending the memorial with all the dubs around me, my former friends will definitly put my shepherding call on hold.
i am sure some of the friends faded quick and never turn their back toward the kingdom hall again.
i am curious if others took a longer approach to fading and dropping off completly.
We stopped attending in May 2005. I refuse to go for the memorial, if the other meetings are avoided, why put myself through the stress of this? It is great not to be guilted into this man made arrangement.
am i understanding this correctly?
you can do the 30 hour package either 2 or 3 times per year, depending on when the circuit overseer visits.
here is the way i get the new rules:.
What a waste of time!
