I think I found a glitch in NWS. My NWS profile gives me just View Only for almost everything in the program, I can't even view the Publisher Records for anyone not in my group, which is really strange since I can view everyone's record on NWP. Anyway, I was looking at my own Publisher Record and noticed that I could add data to Sept 2026. Just that month. I checked the Publisher Records for a few in my group and I can edit their Sept 2026 even though I am in View Only mode. Strange.

I say it would be on October 2nd, 10 days before the 15min LOCAL NEEDS. It would be available for the Annual meeting but no need to train to sing it, they could do like we do during Summer convention back in the day... If it was consistent with the previous year, we would get Year text (year song?) + 2027 convention theme + more "international songs" + update on all the brothers and sisters in prison in the world

I know we aren't supposed to... but if I was to meet him in person in his Jesus costume, the 6'3 man I am may cry like a baby I'd rather meet him in a normal meeting with the suit and necktie...

2026 Governing Body Update #6 What do you think we'll see in Update #6? Could it include: - the theme for the 2027 Regional Conventions? - the locations of the 2027 International Conventions? - a new song? - the 2027 yeartext? When will it be released? This year's updates have generally been released 6 to 7 weeks apart. Based on that pattern, one possibility is September 18, if the interval remains around 7 weeks. However, I think September 25 is a stronger possibility for two reasons: - In 2026, the updates have typically been released 2 to 3 weeks before they are used for the Local Needs part of the midweek meeting. Since there are no Local Needs scheduled for September and the next one is expected in October, September 25 seems to fit that pattern better. - It would also be one week before the Annual Meeting. If Update #6 includes a new song, this would give those attending the Annual Meeting time to learn it. A release on October 2 would leave much less time. For comparison, in 2025, 2025 Governing Body Update #6 was released on September 26, exactly one week before the Annual Meeting on October 4. My prediction: - September 18 or September 25, with September 25 being my strongest guess. What's your prediction?

You're right, my friend Tega. But from this perspective, the bride-to-be risks becoming a widow fairly quickly. Unless she, too... On a more serious note, our 40-year-old brother Josh helps us experience wonderful things with Jesus and Jehovah. For that alone, he deserves all our love and respect—as well as respect for his privacy.

Thank you Jehovah for feeding me spiritually, protecting my family, and maintaining peace.

Name and age correct. Not from Adelaide. Grew up in NSW. I don’t know him personally but are close friends with his Fathers family. He portrays Jesus wonderfully with his warm smile and caring demeanour.

Not the Spanish mainland was involved, but a Spanish city named Ceuta which is located in Africa next to Morocco. All those thousands just swam a few hundred meters around the fence into Ceuta. Everyday there are people who cross the border illegally by land and are returned to Morocco immediately. However, a recent ruling by the Spanish Supreme Court held that people who arrive by swimming cannot be returned immediately because there is no clearly defined demarcation of the border at sea. The Moroccan authorities took advantage of this ruling and encouraged many young people to swim to Spain. Around 60,000 people flooded a city with a population of about 80,000, placing enormous strain on its infrastructure. Most eventually returned after realizing they had been misled and that they would not be welcomed with open arms. Most analysts believe Morocco was testing Spain's response with a view to the future.

It’s a lovely talk by Br. Walls. Families are indeed under attack from Satan. Very timely too.

Assuming he's not going to heaven.

well well well...At this point: let him just wait for the New World so that the real Jesus can help him find his perfect match!

August Broadcast is now available on JW.org under What’s New

That would be ideal. It would be a challenge for anyone to be the visual face of Jesus as billions get resurrected and watch the dramas.

So Joshua... Yehoshua ? Lol that would be funny

I was told he s in his middle 40’s and is called Josh and he s from a congregation in Adelaide. but I can’t confirm this info

Accepted is the fact that, once in a while, two people post at almost the same time, and we end up with overlapping posts each with a different last word for ponderation.

I remember it happening clearly, we drove past the site about a week later, it was very sad to see

I think brother Walls wear the same suit at the zone meeting. Blue is cool.

Tuesday, August 4 They honor me with their lips, but their heart is far removed from me.—Isa. 29:13. Someone who wants to be approved by Jehovah must be “speaking the truth in his heart.” (Ps. 15:2) This means more than not lying. Jehovah wants us to be honest through and through. (Heb. 13:18) That is important, “for Jehovah detests a devious person, but his close friendship is with the upright.” (Prov. 3:32) Those who ‘speak the truth in their heart’ do not pretend to be obedient in public while breaking God’s laws in secret. They avoid acting deviously. A devious person may begin to doubt the wisdom of some of Jehovah’s regulations. (Jas. 1:5-8) He may disobey Jehovah on matters that seem to him to be of little importance. Then if there appear to be no consequences for his disobedience, he may be emboldened to violate God’s laws further, and his worship would become hypocritical. (Eccl. 8:11) We, however, want to be honest in all things. w24.06 10 ¶7-8

What a wonderful program! Zephaniah 3:17 will be etched in my minds from now on. That is the Jehovah we want to share with others.
