Definately a sister told me they run after gringos like an Olympic event...if you land one it's considered "Trading Up". Have patience not enough sisters know your here yet...you'll be beatin' them...
Whoa I do not speak of my own originality...a sister herself said so she's not even a mut she's 100% pure breed Latina. I can't say that I haven't observed A LOT of truth in this area.
hahaha i was totally curious on what you meant. i think its 50-50...as with anyone ya know.
Yeah I mean the first sister is closer to my age range...older but still pretty young. On the other hand an older more mature sister told me something similar and added that a majority of the perce...
"just because a brother has been dipped doesnt' make him a good marriage mate. and minesterial servants aren't all that great. that wasnt in the talk outline. i just wanted to bring it out." ~~...
she kinda misquoted the part about ministerial servants.. it was more like, "and not ALL servants are great either". can't remember exactly how he said it.
Ok. Well that's definitely true. I've never understood these girls that go gaga over MS's. Pretty much any brother that goes out in service regularly and is willing to do stuff in the congregati...
Maybe it's a little more difficult than you think... After all, if it weren't that hard, every single brother would be a servant, but we all know that's not the case. The title isn't a badge that says "I'm good marriage material", but it does show a certain degree of christian maturity.
I think you hit the nail on the head.
What the brother was trying to say was, just because a brother holds "....." position, doesn't mean he's someone you should marry. Like sisters who hunt after anyone who has been at Bethel..okay, so they lived at Bethel..soo?
Again people's circumstances are different.
You would think that, wouildn't you? The sad reality, however, is that a lot of brothers simply do not want to be servants. The elders have a hard time finding brothers who are actually willing to do work, and are responsible enough to carry it out. Even those that do often aren't willing to reach out to be a servant. One of my best friends is like that. He is willing to do the work in the hall, he even pioneered for a year, but when the elders approached him to ask him if he wanted to reach out to be a servant he said no. We have had a lot of talks on circuit assemblies in our area about the need for brothers to reach out, and about how it is not difficult to qualify to be a servant if you really try.
BTW, I am, again, only referring to single brothers with no family responsibilities. It becomes much harder when you have a wife and/or children.
That's the maturity I was talking about. It's difficult to attain that mentality for some.
I guess. I dunno, I just don't understand guys like that. Personally, I think it's fun working at the hall, and would love to be allowed to do more. In fact, a small part of the reason that I am changing halls is that they can't make me a servant here, and I'm already doing everything that you're allowed to do without being made a servant.
