long time lurker here.
i don't want hate in our hearts - jw are wrong oh so wrong - and i want to blame this religion for making me cold and distant to the world.
but i believe everything is meant to be, we all have purpose in this world.
Welcome Abigail :D
My ex best friend in the cong shares the same name and my heart did an instant lurch when I saw your post headline. Well, you're not her but you're still another one who's not held captive to a concept by man. A hearty welcome, and looking forward to hearing more from you xx
just finished watching the jwbroadcast for february.
on the part of the jwcart, i couldn't help but notice that the cart came out from a nice expensive home.
certainly not a place a window washer would be living in.
i live in relatively small seaside community (regional population around 45,000).
in my ten years here, i've had witnesses call on me perhaps twice (not special visits but during door-to-door).
whereas they once canvassed door-to-door much more frequently - and in larger size service groups - there is quite a decline in their door-knocking - at least in this region.. with the advent of the "trolley" work, their visibility has increased - but i'd estimate only marginally.
Hey steve2
For a religion that's been preaching doom forever, this trolley business is definitely not making sense. But then does anything?
just as u said the people push carting this nonsense are usually genuinely nice. Such a shame they're doing this at the whim and fancy of the eight (or is it 12 now?) men sitting on their butts and making home videos. (For my mum to sit and aww over 😞😒
first post on here.
i've been lurking for 3-4 years and i mean i've been a mega lurker, doing marathon reading sessions for months or weeks.. sometimes i proceed by researching specific topics, or posters; other times just reading current discussions.
i'm particularly fond of "old" post, i.e 10-12-15 years ago.. i have laughed, smiled, got mad, cried etc, just reading some threads here.. as you can see i suffer from some kind of "accute lurkitis".
Acute lurkitis :D
please don't apologise for your English. All that ran through my head while I read your post was : this person ought to be a writer.
Welcome, I love reading intro posts and urs just made my day. (Or night, if u will ;)
only have a few minutes to spare so thought i would throw this together.. been in for about 30 years.
questions and doubts gathered over that time.
i have a keen interest in the legal and financial matters of the watchtower.. came across this site about 5 years ago.
i haven't been posting on the board often enough and now that i'm around here i want to take the opportunity to thank every kind word, private message, and piece of advice that;s come my way.
there are beautiful people with grand hearts on this forum and i've decided its' time to maybe get my lazy butt off my chair and organize a meetup around where i am.
i hope there are enough of you around here to make it.. next month perhaps?

hi everyone, fyi :.
at the mid week meeting we had a letter, and a video to explain the extension project for the french bethel for the next 3.5 years.
the video was 5min long, in 3d (nice job in fact...) to show the future buildings for flats and offices (translation, video dubbing...).
