    Im assuming this is the person that calls my husband and lets him know when PO is. If they wouldnt call my husband wouldnt even know when it is. Does everyone have an overseer to keep them on track etc?

    Omg I cant imagine the pressure of coming up w that kind of money. Your wife didnt want to tell her job where she was actually going…was she embarassed/ashamed? I dont know how you members stayed in so long. It seems too stressful and the cog has unrealistic expectations….not sure how Ron was in for 12 yrs…crazy!

    My hubs was telling me about members going to Korea recently..

    He claimed they got chosen to go,

    So they didn’t have to pay for them selves,

    So the church did!

    Can this be true? Or this never happens?!?

    @ Abba, you say the cog has unrealistic expectations? man oh man, do they ever! You hit the nail on the head. Ya, they wanted to hook me up with a Korean wife out of the blue. Mind you she was hot, but I had to say no. It would have been a lose lose situation. Like Ron said, they keep their hands clean, we’ll I better do the same and not get involved.

    Members pay for the flight to Korea. After they get there, all expenses are taken care of by the church. They feed you 3 meals a day, they give you dorm rooms, and escort you around the country in buses. It really was a good experience. @ Untouchable, how did your other half like the trip to Korea?

    @Mayor She loved it, a far as the experience goes. Not for the Wms portion. Her story to tell, but it was exhausting. She never saw the picketers outside The temple though. We always heard about them, “Bredder, you know, they have slanderers that march outside Jerusalem temple, saying bad things about mudder”. Sometimes I wonder if that’s just hype

    Hype? Appearances? Could be. That’s cool she had a good experience. She’ll have to take you. You’ll need a buddy member when you are there. Some of the people speak english, it’ll be easier to communicate with them.

    When she was there she was on a mission. My wife got pretty sick, and the people there really didnt care. They just wanted her to do what they asked.

    Hmm, that’s no good if they did that. They must have been too busy making appearances. Appearances are very important over there.

    Yea. She doesnt like to talk about it, because she actually doesnt want them to come after her. Long story, lol

    She totally should. The examiners want to know everything. Just think of all the people she will help with her testimony.

    @Mayor Yes indeed. Ive learned that title holders have stories that could really shake up the Wms. I recently got an email frok a former member, who informed me that downloadable content from WMS website has tracking info on it. He was hacked by them before. The Mrs. treads lightly, and I respect it.

    Really? Tracking info? It’s cool to be careful. Their intentions aren’t always good. One day hopefully more title holders will rock the boat.

    Def. The first exmember we reachef out to was a title holder, and what he knew could shake their foundations. Ron Ramos had tons more to say thank his video with Hassan, as well.

    I see. One day. If the church is built on lies and not the truth, it will fall. The crew will have to hold a meeting before demolition can begin.
