Most $$ to WT Now Comes From Elderly!
by SAHS ini heard a senior elder at my congregation meeting a couple of weeks ago say that he heard the branch overseer for the canadian bethel, brother ken little, say, ?now most of the money coming in to the society is from seniors and their donations.?
the elder had recently been on a tour of the canadian bethel.
he also mentioned how brother little was telling about one woman who apparently ?left everything to the society.
