stand up to the Society re: disfellowshipping
April 2000
Hi Randy,
Things are heating up a bit over here. We were told we were being
disfellowshipped on April 1st (Julia's
birthday ironically!) on the basis of Titus 3:10 ("...promoting a
sect...." ridiculous).
We appealed on the 8th, but so far they haven't been in touch with us about
fixing a date.
We 'minuted' the 'judicial' and other discussions, and the two attachments are
the letters we've recently sent. Feel free to put any of this, or extracts
from it, on your site if you think it might do someone somewhere some good. It's
like an ongoing soap-opera - it might get people hooked?
Anyway, keep it up and keep in touch.
