Put them in the stalls of the ladies rooms at the Halls and at conventions. One in the drawer of the magazine counter, one in the territory book, one under the sound system controls.
One at each not-at-home.

Every publisher must pay for assembly costs???
by sacolton injust saw this posted on watchtower uncensored .... .

the po in my mom's congregation told them that at the next 1-day-assembly it will be the responsibility of every publisher to put 3 in the box towards the running costs at the assembly hall.

It certainly does cost money to have these assemblies and conventions, even if the building is owned by the circuit or the society and already paid for.
Let's take for an example an assembly hall that was built 20 or 30 years ago and is paid for, and there is a 2-day assembly there 50 weeks out of the year. There is an electric bill, water bill, let's say the parking lot has to be resurfaced every 5 years, seats need recovering every 3 years, the carpeting replaced every 10 years, toilet seats replaced every 5 years. All those costs can be broken down and averaged out, and divided by 50 weeks. Then they can estimate how much $ it costs to operate and maintain the building for each assembly. it does make sense that each congregation or each circuit should pay for their "share" of the expenses. But many JWs can barely afford the gas to get there, let alone the motel rooms.
A more cost-effective idea would be not to have such large meetings. Cover the material on a congregation level, perhaps in special study articles or special Sunday talks. Each congregation has to support itself anyway; why add to that burden?

Why don't they just sell tickets to get in, like a movie theatre?

Mary is right! She must be a prophet! Promote Appoint her to some position of responsibility. Give her something, someone, to oversee.

Welcome. I too got so tired of always walking a thin line, being "exemplary" and giving my best only to be torn down and told it's not good enough, by people who were getting away with doing things I would never do. I started associating with "worldlings" and felt better because they respected me and built me up.

My Husband Cuts through the BS!
by 3dogs1husband ina long time ago my husband came up with this.. the wtbts holds out our hope like a carrot on the end of a stick, and we should be motivated to all ways want and try to get it.
if you change you mind in anyway and no longer want the carrot, or just wanna stand and eat the grass, you then will be beaten by the stick.. .

You know what I don't understand?
We read about all the atrocities committed throughout human history - Hitler's concentration camps, today's crime, all the deaths and suffering from diseases, millions of children dying every day from hunger...and we're told that Jehovah does see but it is not His time to act yet. He has His appointed time, just wait.
But...God forbid a teenage girl should kiss a boy, God forbid a teenager should masturbate or his sideburns be a little too long...well all of a sudden the angelic armies are immediately up in arms, the heavenly courts are looking on as the judicial committee RUNS to act speedily and execute divine judgement against these vile evildoer teens that are contaminating the congregation...gotta take care of this right now.....
these elders are mentally ill.

My experiences that have turned me away.....
by agent86 ingoogle_ad_section_start hi everyone, i am just new to this site and thanks for a very dear friend that has encouraged me to post my story and would love to hear feedback from all you out there xx.
this is my story.
we were introduced to the religion in 1982, not soon after we were unbaptized publishers (a bit to soon for me even at that age) i really didnt miss the celebrations as much as were werent that well off and my parents worked 6 days a week to pay the bills.

Just look at how they changed these lyrics in the new song book
by WingCommander inthis is disgusting!!!
we've all heard that the new song book is really, really, really bad......but i didn't see many examples cited of just how they changed some of the wording.
oh sure, we all know by now how incredibly hard it is to sing along with the garbage they wrote, tempo, lack of beat, odd rythm, timing, etc, etc.

I hope they changed the one about "precious gifts from God our children are..." where it says "He says 'use the rod!'"
