JW News | Watching the World - Secret Jehovah's Witnesses elder's manual leaked (April 2023 version)
Vol 1. Issue 2. May 2023
In this special feature issue of Watching the World we bring to you a recently leaked digital PDF bookmarked version of the Jehovah’s Witnesses secret elder’s book “Shepherd the Flock of God”.
This secret elder’s book is a godsend (pun intended) for any member of the Jehovah’s Witnesses facing disfellowshipping (see chapters 15 and 16), and for lawyers or government officials who may need to keep up to date with the ever-changing rules and regulations governing the daily lives of Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide.
