There is definatly something wrong with Lett.
And this is an Historic Broadcast? Well, it is the first one to beg for money, perhaps it is a longer one so Lett can repeat his plea for more money ad nauseum.
Their worst broadcast by far.
And did anybody else notice that JW.org has replaced Watchtower on the France branch office bldgs?
not a full critique but some points astounded me .
after decades of hearing them say how terrible the "critical times" are that we live in today.
i now hear :.
FlyingHighNow-
There were 14,121 partakers last year, an increase of over 1,000 compared with 2013.
No doubt, a lot more this year.
a couple of weeks ago someone posted that jw.org accidentally posted the 2015 regional convention release.
i can not fine the thread now.. i saw a picture of it yesterday.
a sister had downloaded the pdf and read it that night.. it is a 16-page brochure entitled "return to jehovah", with a purple background.. it has been designed specifically for inactive ones are those who have been raised around the truth but never baptized.
I'm guessing this booklet will be Friday afternoon's release, judging by the title of the closing talk.
I wonder too if anyone from the congregation will be bringing me a copy.
the online version of "reasoning from the scriptures" has deleted the entry under "conversation stoppers" for when someone says "i'm a muslim".. online reasoning book.
for the record, this is what has been removed:.
*** rs pp.
I notice that in the section under "Jehovah's Witnesses" in the part on the last days it still mentions that some that were alive in 1914 will still be alive to see the end of this system of things.
Therefore it must be very close!

Hi yodastar-
I am always interested in the new convention releases, especially books.
A sister from another cong sends me the magazines usually each month and gets copies of the new releases for me.
I am still interested in the society's printing operations and the new publications and magazines.
I don't read everything al;though I do look through them, some things still interest me.
I no longer believe in anything any more, which is sad. Since discovering the tatt I lost all faith and am not even sure if god exists, but if he does he does not care about us.
Anyway- I always look forward to the new releases.

If they want to save a lot of money they should not have physical conventions. Just broadcast the convention at jw.org- and have the new releases sent to the congs the beginning of June.
Then everyone can watch the program from home (or at the kh if they don't have the internet) and they can save on traveling expenses etc and the society won't have to rent and clean the facilities.
The new publications can be made available at the kh beginning in early June or late May.
And hopefully I could still obtain copies without going to the meetings.

I hope everyone orders printed copies. Of course the gb hopes to reduce the number printed so they can save that money for their own purposes but I want to be able to get copies and I am not attending the convention.
A sister has been kind enough to get copies for me each year. I hope she will still be able to or I'll have to wait until the end of the year. Since I don't attend meetings I'll have to see if the sister can get copies then and send them to me.
Thanks for sharing this. It is not up yet on jw.org.
I wonder then if there will be a new book about Jesus released at the convention.
forgive me if this has been posted already but this was in my local paper today.. http://m.recordonline.com/article/20150307/news/150309486/0/wap&template=wapart.
if you have time to read, this is an interesting article talking about watchtowers property in ulster and orange county ny and how much the properties are worth.
it also goes on to show how the tax exempt stays is hurting the communities..
Very interesting article. Thanks for the link!
It does not say how much the properties are worth but does mention school and other taxes Watchtower Farms voluntarily pays.
