  someone was asking for a scanned copy of the memorial invitation, so here it is, front and back.

  i've uh, revized it a bit to say what they really mean.

  please feel free to distribute to anyone you think might be interested in attending.

  i'm a newbie, bin lurking for days and bin doing so much research from your informative threads that my family think i'm possibly "comin back in the truth" =not!

  this is my 1st post so forgive if already done before, but just wondered what you had to "sacrifice to come in the truth?

  in my case, i was baptised in early 80's, my study conductor and all the dubs heavily drilled into us young-uns to sacrifice whatever it takes to please the org.

This is my 1st post so forgive if already done before, but just wondered what you had to "sacrifice to come in the Truth?" In my case, I was baptised in early 80's, my study conductor and all the dubs heavily drilled into us young-uns to sacrifice whatever it takes to please the org. After every study and at meetings, especially after baptism, was practically forced to "packup your jobs, pioneer for the end/finishing line is (not round the bend) but right infront of us!!" I , stupidly gave up a good medical career, failed my higher uni.exams, gave up a very good job (as whats the point as medicine wont be needed in the new system)then started pioneering. This lasted all of 6 months as 1-by-1 the help I was promised dropped off, ended up doing all the ministry "efforts", slaving for the elders, with very few studies, and left all alone to get-on-with-it. Now 25 yrs later have got back into medicine but have never quite felt as though I've acheived my full potential. Anyone had similar regrets?
