Who cares. The dubs on the stand are getting in 2 hours of easy ministry. Happy days.

Assembly Invitations: A Sad, Pathetic Anachronism
by metatron inso, witlesses are handing out assembly invitations locally for their gatherings to invite the public to attend...... .
a meeting that's 50, 100, 150 miles away?
there was an era when placards were put in storefront windows and bombastic sermons were delivered by radio.

Quite VG. I believe the expected attendance at Twickenham (UK IC venue) is around 50,000. This in a stadium that holds 82,000. The catchment area is the western half of London and several counties, with a max driving distance of around 280 miles.
The population of the catchment area is conservatively 14,000,000, with perhaps 40-45,000 witnesses.
There will be several thousand international visitors. (I guess 2k but I don't know)
There are some good reasons why they will not fill the stadium, not least they tend not to use areas behind where the staging is but nevertheless it is significantly below capacity. The whole thing is being presented as a major, major logistical operation as if the area has never seen this many people in it's history. The fact that the stadium and the surrounding area has to cope with another 32,000 people for major rugby events is ignored. True, this is for 3 days and not one afternoon but move a few miles up the road and you have Wembley, capacity 90,000, that copes with major sporting and music events regularly.
I am not suggesting there will not be disruption to traffic, nuisence for the local residents etc. but the local area is used to these things and on a bigger scale.

I wish I had access to Morris like Caleb does. Perhaps I need to wear a bow tie.

Ill conceived and worded thread. Wish I hadn't started it. What was I thinking?

I'm not envisaging a direct link or transition, just wondering if there could a series of developments that end up with religions organisations having to be far more proactive in cleaning up their act.

What I meant to say...
Focus on Pedos In UK. And Australia Bad News for WTS?
Does anyone seeing the increasing focus on exposing historic peodophillia in the UK and Australia think that this could be a precursor for increased attention on the WTS?

At RC, Splane says 1000+ new KH's needed, last year only "60" new one's built.
by oppostate inso there are now regular, full time "construction servants" and their help is much needed along with regional rbc volunteers, who better get working because over a thousand kh's are needed and last year only sixty were built by the u.s. branch.
.
splane also said that just with the new baptized this weekend all over the u.s. we had one whone new circuit, so we better put more work into building needed kingdom halls..

Actually scrap the 1000 refurbs. It's probably a handful just to keep the achieve the same end result...
