DISCUSS COURT CASE HERE JW.org - Jehovah’s Witnesses Mobilize Global Response to Threat of Ban in Russia

[Bluebell]

they announced in the German Bethel: don't spend your money on express delivery,

because all Letters to Russia get into the same plane....normal Airmail or express!

 

I can confirm this....worked many years at the post office and Airport.....

Express is only when it get into the local Post Office...they deliver it quicker...

Well that's not what they wrote on the PDF instructions

Deutschland: 0,90 € (Laufzeit bis zu 14 Werktage); Eil International 6,26 € (Empfohlen) – am Postschalter aufzugeben

 

They actually recommended express despite being so expensive. I did not want to afford to send more than four though.

We sent off our 12 today. I was able to explain to the postal clerk the reason for the letters and she took a contact card to look at jw.org to see what is happening.

That's a good reminder to take cards or tracts with us when we go to the post office.

 

...and Memorial invitations...

 I just want to thanks for the sample letters, this help me out a lot since I'm in a lot of pain. Yes, made some copies parts of it and sent it all 6 officials this morning. It is $1:15 a piece and total of $6:90. Plus, I help the older sisters out this morning by giving a sample of the letter. A sister to me that I'm a big help for the sisters. Since they getting up in age, probably it would be hard for them to get a letter out. I hope I help them out. Plus, KEEP the addresses because I think there is more to come. Compare Daniel 11:44,45. Ps. I took some chocolate before I send the letters out. Perhaps more chocolate with future campains.

Here we go! My boss' boss just asked me about my plans this weekend.... Told her I'll be writing letters to Mr. Putin and his key personnel. Told her there's a major letter writing campaign in which I'm participating.

Setting it up I am!

[Loopy]

An elder announced (by texting everyone) that we will be gathering at the Kingdom Hall after morning service Saturday for lunch and than work on letter writing. We didn't find out about this campaign till Wednesday morning. So there was no announcement Tuesday meeting. 

I've already got a draft done it would take too long to put words together.

Ours are sent. Feels so good to help out the brothers and sisters. The post office lady asked how we knew so many people in Russia?! Hehe. So we gave her a contact card and explained briefly what it was all about. 

[Intercore]

Don't think that I'm mad or any simillar to this. But we everyone can check jw.org and we don't have to wait until elders or someone urges or encourages us to contribute in this campaign. This is a personal thing, everyone should consider it prayerfully. If elders or someone don't tell us about this campaign, it doesn't mean that we must wait till they will say that.

I got our 12 letters sent out this morning. Regular international rate of 1.15 per letter and they get  there in 3 to 5 days. It is so exciting to see so many children writing and drawing letters to these officials! I am so proud of our bold little Witnesses!

[shali]

I wish some kind of news agency would get wind of this and pick up the story in a MAJOR way, it would really add momentum to what is happening.

[DancesWithWife]

Imagine, if 1 million of our Brothers & Sisters write and send 3 letters? 3 million letters! Cut that in half and you still have 1.5 million letters! A mighty response in deed!

They will, when the first batch of letters (first couple millions) start arriving. Then they will just keep flooding the offices. There's no way it goes unnoticed.
But for that to happen, we must do our best NOW to send as much letters as we possibly can, and leave it in Jehovah's hands after that.

What a great witness this is giving...every town and city post office is trying to figure out what's going on! No doubt many will take notice as many already have. With today's technology of communicating to a world wide brotherhood how beautiful it is to see us all united and working together with our Father Jehovah. We have never been so connected as we are now...and this is just a beginning of what is too come.

Just being conservative in my numbers! If anything I know there will be a great response! But think of the millions of prayers!

If you have twitter you could tweet the story. Share on news sites on social media.

Apostates have already invaded the hash tags on twitter that were started about this.

Not surprising is it? But right hearted ones will see the Truth. Reminds me of the video where our Brothers are in the home together, drawing close and comforting each other. And of course putting Jehovah first!

This happened to my sister and a brother who works with me. The post office staff are very curious.
