Yes, we should hook them up with someone who preaches another Jesus and who may molest their children or rape someone in their family. Just any worker will do. I just talked to LW, and also found out (after I got home) that he has been accused of the rape of a sister worker. That was a little creepy. While I saw him running around "camp" unescorted -- it would have been nice to know what I was dealing with. AND -- he was at Antioch just last year -- and "preached." Wonder why he bounced from the Midwest to the east coast. That kinda a long way. Wonder who he is staying with. Wow. or Woe. Well, at least I found out eventually. Good job, everyone.

Why would you like to meet a worker? Ps 49:7 Psalm 49:7 No one can redeem the life of another or give to God a ransom for them— Fixit ~ I was just going to quote that verse in response and you beat me to it. However, my reaction was the same as Jessi's above and I first wondered why the interest in meeting a worker? Perhaps our poster will let us know?

Ps 49:7 Jessi ~ Although many of the workers have more integrity and character than the few who stand out for their misbehavior, I feel people need to exercise caution after all the scandals that have hit the fan in recent years? Actually, you never know if the person visiting in your home and around children have a "secret agenda" and would become a big problem for you? I also knew Leslie White from earlier days in New England and thought he was a charming person and likable worker. I would never have thought he had gained such a reputation as a womanizer among the sister workers and friends. His behavior as an overseer was pretty distasteful to say the least? Perhaps this was a problem of his that really gained attention over the years?

Would like to meet a worker , I am living in eastern Canada now I suspect if you'd PM Clearday that he could get you a worker's name in eastern Canada right quick! I'm sure that any worker anywhere can get you to some worker(s) in Eastern Canada. Please forgive some of the posts on here that are not fitting your question! And have a good day!

I suspect that the OP knows about the 2x2 religion otherwise I don't think he/she would be requesting how to get in touch with a worker. Now for those who fear strangers entering into the 2x2's without knowledge can reassure themselves that IF someone has posted such a question here, they surely have access to all different views and experiences within the 2x2 history.

Sharingtheriches ~ You speak the truth about anybody posting here would have a good enough exposure to 2x2 history in a relatively short period of time. This is a Board where all the "hidden stuff" gets revealed and there's a lot of comments regarding the 2x2 scandals of the past and present. However, in spite of the dark side, there are some fine professing people within the group. It's just the "rotten eggs" within the box that stand out the most! By the way, where is Antioch Convention located? Jessi brought it up in her post and it caught my attention. I never heard of that convention and I'm from the East Coast originally, although I live in Tennessee now.

Antioch, NE. The convention that is now apparently at Scottsbluff? Not sure. . . Yes, Faune, people should definitely exercise caution and not just invite anyone to stay with the family anymore. Especially if they have little girls. Watch them closely, Friends. Don't let them out of your sight at convention, especially. I hope the original poster wants to do what I have been trying to do. Question a worker (I Pet 3:15). But my experience has been that they are very elusive. If they see you first, they usually run. Next convention, I will remember to wear running shoes.
The best way to get connected to a worker is to just walk up to one of the Friends and ask them a doctrinal question. Something like, "Do you believe Jesus is God?" They will have a worker there in two shakes. But you only have about 30 seconds before that worker will become suddenly extremely busy.
Wondering why they have separate "workers tables" at conventions? It would be a whole lot easier if they sat with the "common people" so the Friends wouldn't have to run them down for any doctrinal issues that might come up -- very inconvenient. I truly did appreciate, though, that they would miss out on half their meal to make sure I got in touch with a worker to answer all my questions. That was admirable, and it did touch me, because I know they truly wanted to help me.

However, what's wrong with a little humor added to the pot when such a non-specific question is placed?

Out of curiosity - what was non-specific about the original post?

Actually, you never know if the person visiting in your home and around children have a "secret agenda" and would become a big problem for you? Suggesting that people exercise caution because of the scandals seems, to me, to be the wrong reason to exercise caution. I believe people should exercise caution to protect people who are vulnerable. The reality is that the people visiting your home present a much smaller risk for any type of abuse than the people who live in the home. Sort of like using a narrow beam spotlight to highlight the one prisoner trying to scale the wall while the rest of the prisoners walk out the door in darkness.

Rational ~ To answer your question, the poster did not give the actual location, but simply said Eastern Canada, which covers quite a lot of territory, since Canada is considered the second largest country within the world? Also, since we are talking about workers and professing people, awareness of the scandals of the past and exercising caution in the future would seem logical? Since these things have occurred in the past, it's just makes sense to monitor your children closely while you have any visitors within the home and over night regardless of their status ~ as workers, family, or friends. However, I definitely agree with you that there's usually more problems of CSA within the family unit or close relatives according to statistics, which is even more shockingly unacceptable.

The post was specific - they wanted to meet a worker. While the location was less specific, stating a location in the eastern half of canada eliminates 99.99% of the world. Seems pretty specific to me!

Perhaps if the thread creator would specify which one of these Providences, somebody could help them out? Also, I'm a little curious as to the "Newfoundland/Labrador" designation ~ what is the reason for the slash between them? They are listed as Newfoundland and Labrador on the map provided in my reference above and appear to be two separate provinces. Can you clarify?

If I counted right, there are seven (7) provinces in Eastern Canada which could fit the ticket here. Perhaps if the thread creator would specify which one of these Providences, somebody could help them out? Also, I'm a little curious as to the "Newfoundland/Labrador" designation ~ what is the reason for the slash between them? They are listed as Newfoundland and Labrador on the map provided in my reference above and appear to be two separate provinces. Can you clarify? Newfoundland is an Island and Labrador is on the far northeast corner of the mainland and looks like it should be part of Quebec. In 1774 Quebec was actually given jurisdiction over Labrador. In 1809 Labrador was given back to Newfoundland. Newfoundland was the last province to join the Confederation, 1949. They were fought over by the French, English, Portuguese and fluctuated between being French and English a number of times. Gander airbase was established and served as a North American defense base for the North Atlantic and was used by both Canada and the US for their bases. However, Labrador is it's own region too. It is within the Province of Newfoundland but is recognized as Newfoundland/Labrador. It all was really because of fishing treaties and the wars between the French and the English that had Labrador part of Quebec for awhile and then back to being part of Newfoundland. Way back the aboriginal people shared these two areas and today they are all one province. Possibly because Labrador is on the mainland and Newfoundland is an island, they decided to keep the two names? Not sure. It's got a neat history though.
