JEHOVAHS BLESSINGS
by Blackcat inrecently spoke to a 72 yr-old, who has been jw for around 2oyrs.. he was telling me how well he was doing in field-misery sorry ministry,how many return-visits he had and how he leaves the mags in old peoples homes,and "witnesses" to the pensioners there.. then he went on to tell me that jehovah had really blessed him financialy with a fantastic pension from his previous employers!!
the only problem being he took early retirement before he became a jw from the company.. does jehovah reward his people with financial wealth?.
if he does, i was robbed by my local newsagent when i had a paper round aged 14 !

Bethel Doctor--Is it me, or was this odd??
by Sherri ini was at bethel with my now ex-husband in early 1982. at that time, they did a tb test as part of the physical when you started.
mine came out positive for exposure (though i did not and have never had tb), probably because i had worked as a receptionist in a hospital x-ray department.. the weird bit is that the bethel doctor insisted on giving me a gynacological exam.
as i was only 22 at the time, and butt-stupid, i went ahead and let him.
