i recently met a sister who told me she heard of a story that the late president of the watchtower society, mr. freddy franz, received secret instructions on how to direct the organization from a jewish acquaintance.. is this a conspiracy theory or could there be some truth to it?.

I always thought it a bit odd that there were frequent references to the Jewish calendar, and that the WT used CE and BCE, which are used in Jewish literature and modern Israel.

Recent yearbooks show about 11000 to 12000 witnesses in Jamaica, so the writer must have made a mistake.

It's curious that they Call them 'temples'. I don't recall hearing that before. Maybe the news writer chose the word.

So would this article be about the branch buildings or Kingdom or assembly Halls?

i don't know much about Jamaica, but 45 million seems like a lot. I see it must be in Jamaican currency.

Who is the circuit overseer now in the NE Ohio USA area around Mansfield Ohio? Is it still Ken Cunningham?

That's awful. Is this for real? That's the ugliest building I've seen in a long time. Destined to be torn down.

London Ohio and Indianapolis Assemby Halls to be sold

announce was made this week that the assembly halls in london, ohio and indianapolis indiana will be sold and a new 3000 seat assembly hall will be built in southwest ohio.

the assembly hall in london ohio was built in the 70's and is in fine shape - nothing wrong with it.

the new one will cost around 8-9 million.

I heard this week that the Southwest Ohio Assembly Hall that had been planned near Cincinnati will not be built after all, at least any current plans are taken off the schedule. The London Ohio assembly hall will continue to be used.

What gets me is that they had a special box in the hall for collections for this project, and the local congregation gave 400-500 dollars each month for several years. Now the money is gone and the project won't be built. They just kept the money. It's sad that no one here seemed to notice.

There have been cases where thieves or criminals have pretended to be JWs to scope out neighborhoods, etc. maybe that is what they are going after. The JWs shouldn't be out after usual hours anyway.
