Thanks for the pics!

I hate being a spoil sport, but most of us know no one important will read these, and if Russia has already made their mind up (which it probably has) then these letters won't budge them. However, they will know what they are about and who sent them, they will clog up the Moscow post office, they will bring worldwide attention, and most importantly, they will strengthen and encourage our friends in Russia. So I just mailed ours.

@Anna There is no One like Jehovah or His people! We are United! Not only will the world see this, but it will open more people interested in our work! Jehovah's Holy Spirit is a powerful force! "The nations will know that I am Jehovah!"(Ezekiel 39:7) Many others saying the same thing!

Anna I believe that, as any mail addressed to authorities, unless different, it's the authorities that have to open them perhaps by their administrative assistances if nothing else, but the letters will get to the offices addressed to.  So those offices will have to contend with the bombardment of our letter writing campaign.  But just think, as the one picture shows the line up at the post office what a witnesses to all in all countries who are writing.  And with all the talk about Russia in our news here in the U.S. the post office people will certainly be very curious to what is going on because I'm sure they have never seen anything like this before even though there has been letter writing way in the past all those in the post offices now are all new people I'm sure.  I was told today that our CO said if all Witnesses wrote just one letter those letters put together would be 25 miles long.  I sent out to all 6 on the list and then my husband sent out to all 6 on the list and a person can write multiple times so I might just send out another 6 this week.

I never disputed any of that. I just said no one important will read them . I mean it's logical, would you read over a million letters? (perhaps 8 million). Would you even want to OPEN that amount of  letters? I worked as a secretary for a government official, and I can tell you, if I got over a million letters every day for several days, I know what my employer would have said. I don't want to be rude on here. In any case, what would have happened, because they are pretty identifiable (they follow a particular address format), my employer  would have probably employed a few college students to sort through them and put all the ones that look like they are regarding the same subject into a big bag to deal with "later" . I wouldn't be surprised if similar instructions might be given at post office level in Moscow, where they are all going to bottleneck, and never even reach their destination. In which case the post office will be livid too. The funny thing is, they will have to sort through them in case they miss an important letter. Or it's possible they might have ways around that..... close the post office for a few days, and have in going and out going official and presidential letters mailed privately....

@Anna We are a United people! Of course the world ? will see our Unity and Love for those of the same Faith, we really never met. But, because they Love Jehovah God, we are a Unified Family! Perhaps of the 175,000 in Russia, many more will be curious and want to learn more about Jehovah's Witnesses! We stand up with no fear! Our Father has control and on command Christ the King will march forward. Exciting times! Many prayers needed we all pray for many that are also being faced with attacks! Satan is on his way out! Let him scream his last breath! We long for God's Kingdom with Magnification of His Holy Name throughout the earth! If all 8,220,000 wrote 6 letters = 48,000,000 letters! Many shouts and the world will watch! May all His people be Blessed and rejoiced now, and forever for the King ? of the Universe will reign forever!

One of my favorite scriptures is Psalms 2: 

Psalms

2 Why are the nations agitated

And the peoples muttering* an empty thing?

 2 The kings of the earth take their stand

And high officials gather together*as one 

Against Jehovah and against his anointed one.

 3 They say: “Let us tear off their shackles

And throw off their ropes!”

 4 The One enthroned in the heavens will laugh;

Jehovah will scoff at them.

 5 At that time he will speak to them in his anger

And terrify them in his burning anger,

 6 Saying: “I myself have installed my king

On Zion, my holy mountain.”

 7 Let me proclaim the decree of Jehovah;

He said to me: “You are my son;

Today I have become your father.

 8 Ask of me, and I will give nations as your inheritance

And the ends of the earth as your possession.

 9 You will break them with an iron scepter,

And you will smash them like a piece of pottery.”

10 So now, you kings, show insight;

Accept correction, you judges of the earth.

11 Serve Jehovah with fear,

And rejoice with trembling.

12 Honor the son, or God will become indignant

And you will perish from the way,+

For His anger flares up quickly.

Happy are all those taking refuge in Him."
