by Edison Trent ina friend of mine has contacts to a family with several circuit overseers and special pioneers.
they have good connections to bethel.. he told me that the latest rumor from bethel states that the cos should be abolished in their present form.
they have also recently begun to take cos back to bethel.. over the same channel i have already heard of the car fleet program and that the dos should be abolished.. has anyone else already heard of it?

COs will not be axed. A circuit of about 40 Congos will be put under them so in other words one visit per year not two and revolve them every 4 years

Simplified study watchtower
by Saltheart Foamfollower inthere seems to be some confusion over what is happening with the study edition of the watchtower - i notice it isn't mentioned in the letter to be read out.
if, as seems likely, it is going to be dumbed down even further then i think this could be the first step to shortening the watchtower study (to 30 mins?
) - it is the only meeting not to have been reduced in recent years.

No it is definitely 2019 and not 2018. My bet is the WT study will be shortened to 45 minutes not 30 minutes.

Once feeling guilt is not a joke. Once on the ahem -- relief is of course absurd.

Thankfully, not often. Though I do remember giving myself relief (if you know what I mean) once while I was aux pioneering and serving as an elder and I did feel a little guilt.

Note that using insight while judging applies only to appeals and re-instatement...NOT to disfellowshipping itself.
Translation: boot 'em out quickly for whatever reason, then make the coming back or appeals part painfully arduous by using "insight".
A District Overseer told me many years ago- if you are worried -disfellowship them and worry about the appeals committee later.

Mormons getting hollowed out: The tipping point has occurred.
by Qcmbr inever since mitt romney turned the spotlight on the lds church a growing tsunami of disaffection has been accelerated and brought to a head.. the lds core faithful members are leaving in increasing numbers such that growth has not simply stagnated in the west but it has actively reversed.
to their credit the church is responding aggressively but not only is it too late, it is an impossible task.
you can only paint sh*t so many ways.

The science of DNA analysis was a huge nail in the LDS coffin.
