    Queen Esther got a reaction from Blanchie DeGrate in The Panama Canal opened to traffic on August 15, 1914 ( by Brother Elder, read more...)   
    Some have asked me about the Panama Canal. - Here is a very brief overview. It is very interesting to tour the Miraflores Locks, and understand how the canal works, and how the huge ships are able to transit the canal. ( by  Brother  Elder..)
    On this day in History, Panama Canal opened to traffic on August 15, 1914.  Today,  ships from all parts of the world transit daily through the Panama Canal. Some 13 to 14 thousand vessels use the Canal every year. The Canal operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, providing transit service to vessels of all nations without discrimination.

    Queen Esther got a reaction from Blanchie DeGrate in New Little Current Kingdom Hall open to the public this weekend, By Robin Burridge - November 8, 2017   
    New Little Current Kingdom Hall, open to the public this weekend
    By  Robin Burridge  -  November 8, 2017
    LITTLE CURRENT —  The Kingdom Hall in Little Current is hosting open houses this weekend to unveil its new building to the community.
    The short 10-week construction project was made possible thanks to volunteers from community and national JehovahÂ’s Witness congregation members.
    “The entire new hall was built by volunteers,” explained LeeAnn Fawcett, who gave The Expositor a tour of the new building along with her husband and church elder Dan Fawcett. “There is a group of volunteers who travel throughout Canada building or renovating halls. Locally, people were asked about their skills and helped on site with everything from building to painting. Individuals (of the congregation) helped other ways too such as providing meals and accommodations. It is wonderful to be able to look around the new hall and know that we built it together.”
    “We were outgrowing our old building and it was determined that it was time to replace it opposed to doing renovations,” said Mr. Fawcett.
    The old hall was torn down on June 5 of this year and construction on the new building started on June 8. The building was completed and the first meeting in the new hall was held on Sunday, August 20.
    “The new building is all sensored and features LED lights,” explained Mr. Fawcett, noting that it is very green and energy efficient. “It knows when people are here and exchanges the air four times an hour, which is very helpful for people with allergies. It was also built using concrete foam, which maintains the temperature, and we have in floor heating.”
    The new facility is also wheelchair accessible, with a ramp up to the stage in the main room.
    “We were pleased to get new chairs as well,” shared Ms. Fawcett. “The building is designed as a package so we didn’t need to worry about anything.”
    There are no paid workers at the Kingdom Hall—from the building of the new hall to running the church, everyone is a volunteer.
    The Little Current Kingdom Hall has a core group of 40 members with seven elders who take on various roles such as accounting, education and speaking at meetings.
    The building was paid for by the JehovahÂ’s Witnesses. All contributions made to the church are forwarded on to help build other halls around the world, as well as provide relief work.
    There are two main rooms: the large meeting room and a smaller meeting room that can accommodate additional people or be used as a multi purpose room. Together the rooms have a capacity of 85.
    “We have dual monitors in the main room and one in the smaller meeting room that can all play the same program,” said Mr. Fawcett. “We use it for music, videos, pictures and for presentations. We have an upgraded phone system as well using the Internet that allows people who can’t make the meeting to listen from home.”
    “The smaller meeting room is also used by our Anishinaabemowin language group,” Ms. Fawcett said. “Our Sunday meeting is half in Anishinaabemowin and half in English. Our group is also working on translating projects such as pamphlets in Anishinaabemowin, videos and items for the website. The Jehovah’s Witnesses website is available in 120 languages and we are responsible for the Anishinaabemowin.”
    The Kingdom Hall is always open to the public, but this weekend the congregation wants to encourage members of the community to come see the new building and join in the celebration.
    The Little Current Kingdom Hall of JehovahÂ’s Witness is located at 51 Wilson Street. The open house will be held on Friday, November 10 from 4 to 8 pm and on Saturday, November 11 from 10 am to 2 pm.
    The brand new Kingdom Hall on Wilson Street in Little Current was completed in just 10 weeks thanks to a dedicated group of volunteers from across the country.

    Queen Esther got a reaction from Melinda Mills in JEHOVAH AND INTERNET WITNESSES.....   
    JEHOVAH  AND  INTERNET  WITNESSES.....     ( for  some  European  coutries )
    Many find themselves searching with a search engine in one of the educational sites or networks. And find a page of apostates.
    Is there criticism, information that you can not imagine, possibly lying?
    Maybe you're thinking of statements like The Watchtower of 09.15.2002 on page 20:
    "Doubts can be sown by the media, the Internet and today's apostates."
    Or the Watchtower of 01.05.2000 admits on page 9 paragraph 9:
    "Some defectors increasingly use various mass media, including the Internet, to spread false information about Jehovah's Witnesses."
    Surely you've heard about the Bereans, who tried everything. And opponents use this argument to encourage you to read their pages:
    "What would you do if you were looking for a new car? Would you ask the manufacturer or maybe look for a critical view with Google? A new television? Would you use Google to learn more about the vulnerabilities that the manufacturer hides? Why not with your Faith? Should not it be better verifiable and stronger than a car or television that you have for some years? "
    Our slave, based on the Bible, admits that some of our people, due to lack of exact knowledge, have doubts. Watchtower 2015 says:  After this self-examination, you may have discovered that your faith is not as strong as you thought. But there is no reason to be discouraged. Even the apostle Peter let himself be carried away by fear and doubt. And on some occasions, Jesus rebuked all the apostles for their lack of faith.
    And the same magazine adds:
    "Read the Bible daily, study it and meditate on what you learn, but do not be content with that, research the issues you have doubts about".
    We do not read that they encourage us to search in Google critical pages with our Faith,  in order to know the "truth".
    What the Bible clearly says is:
    "If any of you has a deficiency in wisdom, let him continue to ask God, because he gives generously to all, and without reproach, and it will be given to him.6 But let him continue to ask with faith, without doubting, because the that doubt is like a wave of the sea impelled by the wind and thrown from one part to another.7 In fact, that man who will receive anything from Jehovah will not appear, 8 he is an undecided man, inconstant in all his ways. "- James 1: 5-8                               ( some  good  lessons... )

    The Internet is like any other tool ... if you are good with it .... a lot of productive and wholesome things can happen, and be made.
    If you are bad at it .... you can seriously injure yourself.
    My left index finger is crooked because I almost cut it off with a chain saw. I put it back on and duct taped it together and eventually the bleeding stopped, and "more eventually" it healed up, but with a slight angle where I did not set the bone exactly right.
    The lesson I learned is that chain saws are dangerous, and if I want to keep my fingers, I need to learn more about applied physics, chain saw operation, and FOCUS on what I am doing with a live chain saw, to the exclusion of all other things while the engine is running and the chain is spinning.
    I did NOT stop using a chain saw ... or stop cutting up trees.
    If you accomplish ANYTHING of real value  ... it's going to be DANGEROUS. 
    That is the whole history of aviation, and hundreds of other things.
    That is also the whole history of theological investigation.
    But it is a job that must be done.
