Another one sucked in
by feelinglost inevery once in a while i can get my mom to give me the latest on what's happening with the people i used to know and/or be friends with.
she tells me they ask about me (yeah, right, why didn't they ask about me, or rather come talk to me, when i had stopped going to meetings before i got df'd?).
so anyways, she says guess who's getting baptized?

by carla in"you will agree that...." why do jw's start so many sentences that way?!

What would you do?
by schne_belly inhello my dear fellow jwd members, i need your in put....please.
since my husband i my recent fading process, we've received a few "love bombing" letters from some in our old congregation.. i've received 2 from an old "friend" whom i grew up with and went to school with.
we've drifted apart years ago, to the point where she wouldn't even look at me at the hall---she's a pionner, husband a ministerial servant.

Did you know you were being deceptive at the doors?
by truthseeker ini was recently out with a sister on the ministry; she was talking to some security guard.. she has been witnessing to him, on and off for a few weeks.. before she leaves, she gives him a question to "think about" and tells him "she'll be back next week" to give him the answer.. this security guard reads the bible at work.
the sister was talking about the resurrection hope.. she says, "did you know the bible promises that we can see our dead loved ones again?".
she finishes by saying, "next week, we'll discuss what god requires of us in order to realize that hope.".

opps, wrong button lol here it is
by dedpoet inlast week was the 13th anniversary of my baptism into the borg, and i celebrated it by writing a letter of disassociation to the uk hq.
this has been acknowledged, and i am out of the wt!
the dubs who came round to confirm it commented on the date, so i told them it was quite deliberate, kind of rounds things off nicely, don't you think?
