    How come the heading is in Italian but the text in English?

    @TheOldHippie: This letter was from another branch however Cedars seems to have a separate anonymous source that confirms it.

    probably the orginal recipient of the letter is in an English or other foreign language congregation served by the italian branch. Nothing special.

    This doesn't seem to be happening in the UK. I asked an elder confidentially and he genuinely seemed to know nothing about it. Maybe he isn't keeping up.

    I was thinking that a congregation's elders could low-ball the figure so as to easily make the minimum payment resolved donation every month. Overages could then be added to a rainy day fund. Lo and behold, this is addressed within the "surplus funds" category. Rainy day funds are "unnecessary surplus."

    My understanding has been adjusted. What a loving provision.

    Was this letter read anywhere in the US or UK?

    Don't want to mention it to anyone if it didn't really happen.

    It's not been read anywhere. It will not be read until the SM next week. The elders should all know about it now.

    The letter in US is not to be read till next week. There was a brief announcement read this week that said the donation box for Kingdom Hall assistance is no longer used effective immediately. More info will be provided next week.

    Then after the meeting our COBE removed the label off that box.
