Where do u live. I'm in Ohio. In the United States. Only two brothers here have beards and it's been frowned upon. But I have friends in Germany. And Poland. And several have beards there and are serving in congregation. But here if you want to have any privileges you cannot have a bear.
I am from Germany, North Germany... born in Hamburg - but now living in Stade, We allowed here groomed beards, also by elders. But maybe its little different from cong. to cong.

I agree it's not necessarily a Custom to have a beard. But in today's society a beard isn't frowned upon among men or something that sets them apart as rebellious or something else as was in the past. But if a brothers conscious allows him to wear a neatly groomed beard then I see no reason to fault him for it or hold it against him in thinking he is not trying to remain modest. I prefer a beard and look better with one. Shaving also causes me to break out and face to burn. So I prefer not to. But I don't want to stand out as someone rebelling against the congregation so I'm stuck in guess. Hopefully the brothers will be accepting of beards soon
A well groomed beared can looking so nice ! Our young anointed Sinti - Brother has a very short, small and well groomed beard... Its so nice, like a small chain by a younger Sister ;-)

Use the Word of God—It Is Alive !
This is so that they may believe that Jehovah . . . has appeared to you.—Ex. 4:5.
http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2016/11/4
God put in Moses’ hand the means by which he could prove that his message was from Jehovah. What seemed to others like nothing more than a rod came to life by God’s power! What force such a miracle would add to Moses’ words, proving conclusively that he had Jehovah’s backing! Hence, Jehovah told him: “You will take this rod in your hand and perform the signs with it.” (Ex. 4:17) With that proof of God’s authority in his hand, Moses could go forth and confidently represent the true God before his own people and before Pharaoh. (Ex. 4:2-4, 29-31; 7:8-13) The same question may be asked of us when we go forth to share the Bible’s message with others: “What is that in your hand?” In many cases, the Bible will be in our hand, ready for use. Although some may view the Bible as nothing more than a book, Jehovah speaks to us through his inspired written Word.—2 Pet. 1:21. w14 8/15 2:5, 6

La Palabra de Dios es viva: ¡usémosla!
Para que crean que se te ha aparecido Jehová (Éx. 4:5).
http://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2016/11/4
Por el poder de Dios, ¡una simple vara cobraba vida! Gracias a ese milagro, Moisés podría demostrar que Jehová lo había enviado y que contaba con su apoyo. Jehová le dijo: “Esta vara la tomarás en tu mano para que ejecutes con ella las señales” (Éx. 4:17). Teniendo esa prueba en sus manos, Moisés pudo pasar a la acción y representar con plena confianza al Dios verdadero ante su propio pueblo y ante el faraón (Éx. 4:2-4, 29-31; 7:8-13). Cuando nosotros pasamos a la acción y llevamos el mensaje bíblico al prójimo, se nos podría hacer la misma pregunta que se le hizo a Moisés: “¿Qué tienes en la mano?”. En muchos casos tendremos la Biblia en la mano y estaremos listos para usarla. Aunque hay quienes ven la Biblia como un simple libro, es mucho más que eso: es la Palabra escrita de Jehová, mediante la cual él nos habla (2 Ped. 1:21). w14 15/8 2:5, 6

En hospital Luis Vernaza se realizó procedimiento a testigo de Jehová
Karina Silvera / Guayaquil / 29 oct 2016Un trasplante de riñón sin transfusión de sangre ni plasma, Salud. *Patty Mujica* deberá pasar al menos siete días en observación. (Cortesía)
Como una persona nueva. Así se siente Patty Mujica Villamar después de recibir un nuevo riñón, por el que había venido padeciendo durante trece años.
Fue un largo tiempo “atada a una máquina”, dice la mujer, quien por algunos años recibió hemodiálisis, después pasó a sesiones con sueros y en 2011 empezó el proceso para ingresar a una lista de espera de un órgano donado. En ese tiempo sentía desfallecer, comenta.
Hasta que llegó la llamada donde le informaban que tenían el riñón que necesitaba. “No lo podía creer. Ya había perdido las esperanzas, pero Jehová me dijo: ‘Espérate’”, expresa.
El proceso se realizó en el hospital Luis Vernaza, y con esta intervención sumó a 120 el número de trasplantes de este tipo que se hacen en el nosocomio desde hace seis años.
Fue un procedimiento complejo, pero satisfactorio, y con una particularidad: es la primera vez que se realiza una intervención sin administrar sangre, plasma ni plaquetas. Esto, debido al credo de la paciente.
Mujica profesa la religión de los testigos de Jehová y sus creencias no les permiten recibir ningún tipo de transfusión sanguínea, así que el procedimiento quirúrgico no podría basarse en ello.
Algo complejo, pero no imposible. Noralma Mosquera Vivas, jefe del equipo de trasplante renal de esta casa de salud, indica que no es necesario hacer una transfusión durante la operación. “Solo lo hacemos cuando el paciente se descompensa”.
Para este caso en particular estaba lista la máquina cell-saver (salvador de células) que recupera la sangre del paciente durante la intervención y se la devuelve al organismo.
Este caso fue uno de los tres procedimientos que se efectuaron esta semana en el operativo de trasplantes de órganos de donantes cadavéricos: dos renales y otro hepático, en este último participó el grupo médico a cargo de José Zúñiga, jefe del equipo de trasplante hepático del Luis Vernaza.
*CONSIGA BIEN PRONTO* Hermana Patty Mujica❤
¡Que Jehová los bendiga!

Luis Vernaza hospital procedure was performed Jehovah's Witness
Karina Silvera / Guayaquil / October 29, 2016Kidney transplantation without blood transfusion or plasma ! Health. *Patty Mujica* must spend at least seven days under observation. (Courtesy)
Like a new person. So Patty feels Villamar Mujica after receiving a new kidney, which had been suffering for thirteen years.
It was a long time "tied to a machine," says the woman, who received hemodialysis for a few years, then moved to sessions with sera and in 2011 began the process to join a waiting list for a donor organ. At that time felt faint, he says.
Until the call came informing him that had the kidney she needed. "I could not believe it. He had already lost hope, but the Lord said, 'Wait a minute,' "he says.
The process was conducted at the Luis Vernaza hospital, and this intervention amounted to 120 the number of such transplants that are done in the hospital for six years.
It was a satisfactory complex procedure, but with a particularity: it is the first time a procedure is performed without administering blood, plasma or platelets. This is due to the creed of the patient.
Mujica profess the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses and their beliefs do not allow them to receive any blood transfusion, so the surgical procedure could not rely on it.
Complex, but not impossible. Mosquera Noralma Vivas, team leader kidney transplant health of this house indicates that you do not need a transfusion during surgery. "Only we do when the patient is out of kilter".
For this particular case was ready the cell-saver (cell saver) machine that retrieves the patient's blood during the operation and returns to the body.
This case was one of the three procedures were carried out this week in the operation of organ transplants from cadavers, two kidney and one liver, in the latter part the medical group by Jose Zuniga, head of the team of liver transplant Luis Vernaza.
*GET WELL SOON* Sister Patty Mujica❤ May Jehovah bless you !

Los siervos de Jehová renuncian a la injusticia
Sigan asegurándose de lo que es acepto al Señor (Efes. 5:10).
http://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2016/11/3
Las diferencias de opinión sobre las diversiones pueden provocar discusiones “necias e ignorantes” (2 Tim. 2:23). Claro, si alguien promueve diversiones que violan las normas morales divinas, los ancianos no van a tolerar tal conducta simplemente por evitar confrontaciones (Sal. 11:5; Efes. 5:3-5). Sin embargo, deben tener cuidado de no imponer sus propios puntos de vista. Nuestra organización no revisa las películas, los videojuegos, los libros o las canciones para decirnos cuáles debemos evitar. ¿Por qué no? Porque la Biblia anima a cada cristiano a desarrollar “sus facultades perceptivas [...] para distinguir tanto lo correcto como lo incorrecto” (Heb. 5:14). Las Escrituras contienen principios que nos permiten tomar buenas decisiones en el ámbito del entretenimiento. Ahora bien, la Biblia enseña que los cabezas de familia tienen un grado de autoridad, de modo que pueden decidir que los suyos no participen en ciertos tipos de entretenimiento (1 Cor. 11:3; Efes. 6:1-4). w14 15/7 2:11, 12

Jehovah’s People “Renounce Unrighteousness”
Keep on making sure of what is acceptable to the Lord.—Eph. 5:10.
http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2016/11/3
Differences of opinion regarding entertainment can result in “foolish and ignorant debates.” (2 Tim. 2:23) Of course, when individuals promote entertainment that violates Jehovah’s moral standards, Christian elders should not tolerate such behavior simply to avoid controversy. (Ps. 11:5; Eph. 5:3-5) Still, elders are careful not to promote their personal views. In the matter of entertainment, our organization does not review specific movies, video games, books, or songs in order to rule on what we should avoid. Why not? The Bible encourages each individual to train his “powers of discernment . . . to distinguish both right and wrong.” (Heb. 5:14) The Scriptures set forth basic principles that a Christian can weigh when selecting entertainment. The Bible teaches that family heads have a measure of authority, so they may choose not to allow certain entertainment in their household.—1 Cor. 11:3; Eph. 6:1-4. w14 7/15 2:11, 12

The September 2013 Awake article on this matter was addressed to people in this way , "you may not believe in supernatural spirits".
2 Cor. 4:4
Satan blinds peoples minds to the truth through false propoganda in many areas, religious, scientific, political etc. They construct all kinds of mental buildings based on these false foundations.
When some people hear the truth on a matter however, it can move their thinking on other issues. Bit like seismic activity in one area causes building collapse somewhere miles away.
I had a study once with a Trotskyist revolutionary. He was active in a radical political party. It was impossible to discuss world conditions or religion in general without getting into a political debate. After a year, I gave up and switched to talking in detail about the Bible's teaching on life after death, something he had expressed no interest in. However, this was new to him and he listened with some interest intellectually, as he did not know that mainstream church thinking differed from what the Bible taught.
Nothing happened for several months until he attended a funeral service for a close relative. He realised that the funeral discourse contradicted what he now knew was taught in the Bible. He was outraged by this. Within weeks he started attending all the meetings at the Kingdom Hall and soon dedicated his life to Jehovah. His zeal was now redirected into the preaching and teaching work and he pioneered for many years.
So in the spirit of Ecclesiastes 11:5, I would encourage @Queen Esther to keep publishing the truth on matters. Who knows where it will have success?
Just one thing, It is good to provide a link to jw.org when quoting articles in this manner. Like this: Sep 2013 Awake
When we can see a good heart and take little patience, with special prayers... maybe, it will bring success after a time, bec. some humans need more time for learning and realize this and that... Its a kind of feeling that ;-) Thank you, Eoin Joyce !

NEW WORLD TRANSLATION OF THE HOLY SCRIPTURES...
QUESTION 12 :
What Hope Can We Have for the Dead ?
“Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.”
*John 5:28, 29“There is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.”
*Acts 24:15“I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and scrolls were opened. But another scroll was opened; it is the scroll of life. The dead were judged out of those things written in the scrolls according to their deeds. And the sea gave up the dead in it, and death and the Grave gave up the dead in them, and they were judged individually according to their deeds.”
*Revelation 20:12, 13http://www.jw.org/en/publications/bible/nwt/introduction/hope-for-the-dead/
