Watch a powerful video of a brother reporting the current elder that molested him.
Once again we see Watchtower policy in the reality. A brother comes forward at the gravesite of Charles Taze Russel founder of the organization of Jehovah’s Witnesses, to tell his story of abuse and identify the currently serving Presiding Overseer and former Special Pioneer that molested him as a child.
If you go on the silentlambs website home page and look at the left column click on the picture to view the video and see the campaign for the special talk this Sunday.
A boy was molested by a ministerial servant (Deacon) in a congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses en route to an assembly, where the molester was due to give a talk at the convention. Revulsed, the boy was nevertheless forced to be around this molester in the years ahead in agonizing cruel ways.
When the matter came up before the Service Dept. of the Watchtower in Brooklyn, and the elders in the local congregation, no reply was given, no apologies, no offer for counseling an abuse victim, just the warning that you "could be disfellowshipped for gossip" That in spite of the fact that the molester not only acknowledged his dirty deed to the young man later on, but that the other elders and Brooklyn had "taken care of the matter"
The molester moved on to be a Special Pioneer and elder in the boy’s congregation. He remains an elder in Jehovah’s ’spiritual paradise’ to this day. No offers for help were ever given to the young man, who will remain anonymous as he is still technically a Jehovah’s Witness.
The video featured on the website is a shocking reminder that in spite of the Watchtower’s Public Relations Dept. and their statements on their website, the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society is still interested in keeping molesters a secret in the congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses, even using such ones in responsible positions!
Jehovah’s Witnesses go door to door,will such a one be coming to your door soon?
