  The UK looks after areas like UAE and Pakistan.

  There is a CO assigned to the Hastings area of East Sussex that also jets off to Dubai to do their visits.

  the "boasting session" last night included forcing the congregation to watch that stupid witnessing cart video.

  then the brother handling the part discusses what a "powerful witness" is being given each time those carts roll out into public view.. experiences: had a nice conversation with a young man.

  a woman took a tract.

  The title of this thread reminds me of the guy who goes to the doctors and says "doctor, doctor, I've got a steering wheel stuck to my privates" and the doctor says "well that looks painful" to which the guy replies, "damn right, it's driving me nuts".

  One of the points to come out of the UK branch visit today was that in the latest YB there is a picture of Sam Herd doing the carts. He is showing a person a video on dub.dork. It was stressed by the speaker that this is how the GB want the work done - i.e. leave the literature on the cart until it is clear that a person is interested. So engage with them first and qualify the giveaway.

  So they are looking to give less and less away whilst uping the number of hours that publishers do since they can be on the carts for ages.

  I believe the memorial attendance is down on last year, but I am not sure which countries are counted in the Britain total.

  OK - it was basically the following:

  1 - don't worry about the upcoming persecution we are likely to get. God is with us. Whatever the courts or media throw at us don't forget Jehovah approves us.

  2 - Chelmsford (the new British Branch HQ) is pushing forward and they got planning approval yesterday. A coincidence put down to Jehovah's blessing

  3 - around 225k at in the UK at the memorial this year

  4 - don't lose your joy. How? Go to the meetings, do more in the service, pray, don't worry about what you can't change and count your blessings.

  The end.

  NB - I use "us" in the broad sense

  Oh, and Jehovah can measure the universe in the span of his hand. I guess his hand must be getting bigger.

  Depends. If it's a close family member - 10%. If it's some body you never liked anyway - 100%

  Seriously, I think for anyone outside of a family relationship with the DF'ed person it's going to be up around 80%

  This is worth 100 incidents of making a scene in a KH and 1000 protests outside a convention.

  It would be great if it was linked to from some other sites like jwleaks, jwsurvey etc.

  It's time limited but I wonder if it's possible to get it extended?
