Shepherding #1
by Amazing inintroduction: much has been said about the jw judicial committee system, and all the negatives, along with some concurrent shepherding visits.
the purpose of this short series is to discuss how and why we made shepherding visits, and what those visits were like from the perspective as elders.
nothing here is designed to be self-serving, self-indulgent, or self-justifying ... it needs to be told from the vantage point of how we felt at the time, and what we thought we were accomplishing ... though blind to the hurt and harm some of this caused.. ps: future installments will eliminate the background, and be shorter.. background: our congregation was known as the armpit of the circuit because of high inactivity, high irregularity.

Cow gets key to the city
by larc inthis is old news to those in southwestern, ohio, but i don't know if this made the wire services.
it seems that several weeks ago, 1,200 pound cow jumped a 6 foot fence and got way from the herd that was destined for the slaughter house.
the cow escaped to a nearyby city park, and remained hidden for ten days, despite search parties with heat sensing devices looking for her.

Stop counting time
by Elsewhere inmost jws are guilted/coerced into going into the ministry by the time requirements.
i can't help but wonder how much time the average jw would spend in the ministry work if the time requirements were dropped.. i know that the only reason i went into field service was because i didnt want the elders coming and counseling me... that was until i figured out how to use theocratic warfare on my time sheet.
any thoughts on this?.

My new Computer
by Yerusalyim ini've decided to join the modern era and have purchased a hp with a 1.2 ghz processor.
works a bit faster than the 166 mhz i was using before.
i'm a bit disturbed by my own consumerism though.. yerusalyim.
