Are You in a Position to Help JWs and Ex-JWs???
by Prisca inhow many of us here are in the position to help jws seeking answers to their doubts and questions, as well as ex-jws who may be wondering if they've made the right decision?do you feel you have the resources to answer their questions on jw doctrines?how about providing emotional and/or spiritual help?and if you are in the position to do so, would you?.
i often wonder just how many people are out there, jws and ex-jws alike, who need someone to talk to about their jw experiences, to ask questions and find assurance.
how many of them are unaware that there are people available to help them?

Fifteen Years Ago...
by Prisca ini was baptised at a local circuit assembly.
it didn't seem a big deal at the time, as i'd grown up as a jw, and getting baptised was just a rite of passage for jw youths.
fortunately my parents had the attitude that you don't need to get baptised until you're an adult, so as a teenager i didn't have the pressure to get baptised, although i was expected to once i reached my adult years.. the year before my baptism was rather traumatic.

Don't get around much anymore......
by Prisca inwell, i've been busy travelling and making arrangements to move from my present address, so i haven't been online as much lately.
as well, due to the changes in the forum, i couldn't post from my home pc for a while, so that really kept me quiet!!
circumstances mean i won't be around as much as i used to, at least for the next couple of weeks, so i just wanted to pop in and say hi.
