We would fudge on our time reports. We felt that if a pioneer could count their time sitting at a box at a convention as sacred service then we could count all of the hours that we did service for the KH as sacred service. So, if we cleaned the hall - that was sacred service. If we studied with our son for more than four hours a month, we would count it. In fact, if a bible study comes to the meeting with you and you help them find scriptures then, you were allowed that time. Well, our son sat with us at every meeting and we would look up the scriptures with him. There goes five hours sacred service each week. Needless to say, we felt that we were JWs our entire life and that meant that everything we did was sacred service. So, we could count our time any time we wanted to. It was all sacred service.
