  1. https://www.expressnews.com/news/article/west-virginia-school-system-mandates-religious-18453062.php Here is what we have observed many times where our young brothers and sisters are pressured to conform
  2. As you can definitely see Idabel, in Southeastern Oklahoma , was devastated by a huge tornado. One fatality. We do have some brothers and sisters in this town.
  3. My daughter in law has that same chemical reaction to fragrances, etc. It shows LOVE and KINDNESS to respect what our brothers and sisters go through. 1 Corinthians 10:24
  4. Im sure that I'm looking over the transcript for the Exercise Faith Circuit Assembly. I print them off for a few of the Seniors with neuropathy. Thanks
  5. Has anyone mentioned "the blind leading the blind" Matthew 15:14 yet? "No rest for the wicked" Isaiah 57:21
  6. Thanks Lucy, please stay safe and give your family and all the brothers and sisters in your congregation our warm love and christian greetings!
  7. When I hear a song(s) that take me back to my younger years I quickly relate what age or grade I was in at the time and where we were living. ( We moved around a lot!) Even if I see a clip or movie of an old western, Red Skelton , Carol Burnett, etc. It gets me to thinking of how sometimes life seem to be more simplified. Not always easier, but more simplified. I agree with Matthew of experiencing the past with positive feelings of nostalgia, accept for a very few rough bumps that everyone has in life. I believe that everyone has a song, a movie , a book, or something in their life that takes them back to 'a moment in time'. Hopefully more are able to enjoy a positive reaction than a negative one.
  8. Sister Annie, Your website is nice and the drawings/sketches are amazing. Much talent! Thanks for sharing!
  9. However, it doesn't look like they put out much literature for people to take lol
  10. There are two quotes from Governing Body that i have always appreciated! 1980 Brother Albert Schroeder..."We have preached the Good News, Now we need to Teach it." Brother Samuel Herd...." Do what you can when you can." Please forgive me if I misspelled The first Brother's last name. 🙂
  11. "The Blue Bomb" that is what I studied in to help learn the TRUTH! Wonderful publication.
  12. This is probably how I will wind up receiving the Covid vaccination
  13. Yes, ANYONE who is the least bit curious about that question or truly interested in finding out the answer will push the ' GET THE ANSWER' button. Very clever I thought.
  14. For one who is inactive: How often I have wanted to say, What is keeping you from returning today? What deep inside has caused this much pain To keep my friend from life to gain? I pray each day for your return, To keep in mind what we ALL yearn! Realizing that happiness is not what is in this world..to shun But a world that is not yet begun! If only you would consider more than your pain, But living forever and the real life to gain. So my friend, look deep inside, For only you can truly decide!
  15. Thought of a few more: "We cannot ask Jehovah to guide our footsteps if we are not willing to move our feet." "No disappointment is too great for Jehovah to heal, to resolve, or even turn into a blessing." from Imitate Their Faith pg. 75 par. 27 "It is not our position but our disposition that make us happy." "What we are governed by determines who we are! Are you governed by feelings, passion or godly principles?"
  16. Sister Maria, here is another one for thought: " It's not the degree of education, it is the degree of faith that one puts in Jehovah that will make you successful." Here is another one: Man says, "Show me and I will trust you"---Jehovah says, "TRUST ME AND I WILL SHOW YOU." "Let the Mind of your Master be the Master of your mind."
  17. One I heard many years ago about being Service Minded: "Be steadfast not bedfast, It's mind over mattress." How easy it is especially in cold season to want to just pull the covers up and go back to sleep.
  18. Welcome Joy to the worldwide forum of christian brothers and sisters. Please accept our warm love and christian greetings and if you will give these expressions to you family as well as the brothers and sisters in your congregation. Looking forward to getting to know you.
  19. Good evening Everyone!   I just wanted to share  what has been going on since April due to the Pandemic.    As some of you already know, I work at a school.  Well, my Superintendent has been connecting and listening in on our congregation zoom meetings since April and has not missed but three since she began (one was due to a funeral).  She has even listened in when we have abbreviated Watchtower lessons due to our Circuit Assembly last week.    She and her 89 year old mom listen in and said they love listening in and learning.  They are Catholic.   I send her via text the public talk title each week and the Watchtower lesson for that week.   About a week ago after she missed a couple of Sundays she said to me, "Please don't forget us!"   I told her she can rest assured that we would not.   Anyways it is encouraging to see ones of a different faith connecting to our Zoom meetings.
