I found this over on Reddit...JW`s are now Tithed / Taxed by the WBT$.
Quote:
Can someone confirm or show proof of the recent announcement that they want each publisher to contribute $12 a month?
Quote:
They’re passing resolutions everywhere that will require each congregation to send in a certain amount each month. Looking through this sub, it seems to depend on where you live; congregations in more urban or well off areas are expected to give more......It’s tithing without the name.
Quote:
It's $40/mo. where I'm at.
Quote:
I’m told that a resolution to pay $1700 to the branch was passed in the congregation where my cards are.
That would be $17 a publisher of the average cong is about 90-100 publishers.
Quote:
There was an elders (and ms) meeting a while back where the co came in and said if the monthly donation amounts are not met, it’s up to the elders and ms to make up that difference.
Quote:
I believe the “suggested” amount in the US is about $8/month per publisher. But the elders can use a bigger figure if they think the congregation can support it.
There are more posts than that...
So this isn`t just a Local Thing, or a JW Congregation that decided to do something on their own.
This is the New Reality in WBT$ World...
JW`s are being Taxed by the WBT$, to be JW`s.
