  hi, just wanted to introduce myself.

  born-in, as was my husband.

  we were both baptized as teens, married when we were teens (he was early 20s) and we were both the "perfect" witnesses.

  Merrimack New Hampshire KH Project denied credit by WT seeks $ from others

  the merrimack congregation in nh is seeking to buy land and build a new kh, the nh rbc has plans to build a $750,000 (that's right a three quarter million kh).

  "the branch" has wanted to build a kh between the cities of concord and manchester nh for quite a few years now.

  unfortunately the wt has looked into their resources, local bank account is over $100,000, and they can contribute $2,000 monthly towards a mortgage.

  Halloween as a Jehovah's Witness Kid

  what was your experience like as a kid on halloween growing up in a jw family?.

  i was raised in a jw family but never got baptized.. my father used to make me and my sister put old awakes and watchtower's in the trick or treaters' bags.

  we would say: "i don't celebrate halloween but here's a treat for you!

  "We have lots of jw's on our estate in Tamworth so we made a return visit on them to place a number of nails under the tyres of the 2 BMW X5'S they have to lord it over the congregation that they are better than anyone else. I am very bad."

  This is so funny!! Shame on you! lol I'll admit, there's a few people I would like to do this to. Glad you and your kids enjoyed trick or treating. Isn't it nice to do nromal things with your family?

  The only consistent tradition I have since I started celebrating 3 years ago is I fix a great BIG pan of lasagne. It's delicious and my family loves it!

  Here is the funeral talk outline. VERY discraceful.

  by stillstuckcruz in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is truly terrible.

  i just love the statement "instead of eulogizing the deceased, use the material in this outline to give a fine witness concerning the truth.

  " in other words, utterly disregard the deceased.

  My mom is a hardcore JW. If she should pass(may that day be many, many, many moons away), I am NOT going to have the memorial in a KH. I'll invite the JW's to her service because that is her life. But, the service will be held in a public place.

  No way in hell I am going to allow them to disrespect her and sum up her life in a few short sentences! My mom is such an exceptional, wonderful, giving person. The idea that they would try to minimize that by using a recruitment talk makes me sick to my stomach.

  None of our loved ones deserves such a cold, standard speech.

  Welcome~ I am a Michigander, too. I had many trips with my family to Holt. We used to stop at 7-11 after it was over and get snacks for our ride home.

  This is a great website-glad you joined.
