    The Watchtower cited (May 2023) has this article which was a printed version of Br. Splane's wonderful talk from the Annual Meeting. It is well worth lostening to again. It is about 24 minutes in length. https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/VODPgmEvtAnnMtg/pub-jwb-086_5_VIDEO

    correct. The Watchtower comment on this verse says: *** w97 2/1 p. 14 par. 1 “Though You Never Saw Him, You Love Him” *** No one alive on earth today has ever seen Jesus Christ

    Don't worry too much about it. I lived through the gatherings being called Assemblies, District Assemblies. District Conventions, International Assemblies and so on.

    We don't have any 'high-rise' apartments. Most of ours are limited to 10-29 units. We use the county auditor's website to determine names and addresses.

    We are up to 6.5.10 now.

    I have both the 1950 edition and the 1962 edition and that line is not in them.

    It looks like we skipped 127. It went May=126. June=125, July=128

    We are remined in Hebrews 13:7..."Remember those who are taking the lead among you, who have spoken the word of God to you, and as you contemplate how their conduct turns out, imitate their faith."

    Underlining...Yes. A paraphrase of Job 14:14...(AV) "all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my underlining comes."

    My first thought when I read the title of this thread was...Which Songbook?

    A TV station can only send a signal for 100-200 miles at best (often less). So to cover most of your country it would take 1000s of stations. To cover the whole earth would be so many that it would be cost ineffective. Plus a TV station requires a license to be provided for by the government ruling the country.

    I still get a little anxious on Tuesday nights. I miss the 'Book Study'.
