Answers to reinstatement questions
by WTWizard infirst of all, to anyone interested in reinstatement (in response to a couple of threads about the subject, and for anyone that wants to see their family again), there is no formal letter to write.
rather, you will have to submit a request to the hounders that disfellowshipped you in the first place.
chances are good that they will reject that appeal.. some time later, you will have to submit another request for a reinstatement hearing.

HooooooooooRay! Wifey has a job!!!!
by AK - Jeff in13 months later.
probably 1500 applications/resumes online and in person.. it is not a great job - flippin' burgers - and the distance is a bit more than we wanted for her to drive - but we are thankful!
they mentioned possible management in the interview - so perhaps it can grow over time.. anyway - it will help keep the wolves off the doors.

What real hope is to me - just a feel good post
by heybaby init's amazing to me how much i've come to life since i've stopped going to meetings and field service and the whole tiresome jw routine.
i find beauty and joy in the simple things.
for example, we never used to sleep in on saturday, because of course that was field service day.

encouraging JW "nighmare" stories
by lancelink inrecently i was thinking back over the years, and thought about the horrible stories the watchtower published hoping that.
the rank and file would be encouraged, or think of ways to improve their own life.. instead of a heartwarming, or upbuilding story, it was something found in the ultimate gloom story.. the worst i can remember was back in the early 1980's, my oldest son was just born, and in some magazine / book there was a story about a. sister who was being persecuted.. she also had just given birth, and the persons who were doing the persecuting had the mother locked, or tied up and had the baby lay right outside of her reach.. all she had to do was renounce her faith, and the baby would be returned to her.. i don't remember how the story ended, but that just scared the s**t out of my wife and i. no way could i put a religion above the life of my child in that situation.. but i do remember the moral of the story was for us to "build up our spirituality" because things like this will happen soon.. good grief, this was 25 years ago, and it really made a mark on me for years.
yet i always knew that religion would be #2 in a situation like that.. and for years i felt unworthy because i did not have the correct mindset crafted by the wt society regarding this type of situation.. anyone else have a personal experience like this ?

I want to do volunteer work - this is classic
by heybaby init has always bothered my how witnesses are discouraged from doing volunteer work because "preaching to them about the truth is the best thing we can do!
" ok, yeah, whatever.
it's true that the bible talks about preaching as being important for christians, but that's far from being the only thing that christians are encouraged to do for their fellow humans.
