I got this topic from another forum . When I was in my judicial committee (2009); after the decision came to disfellowship me one elder asked "Pitchess are you gonna be there to hear your announcement . Now I said "no I'm moving 75 miles north of Los Angeles " ( they tried to get me to stay, but thats another topic ). I always wondered why would they want me to hear the announcement ? When I was back there one elder said "it shows repentance to be there for the announcement" ( I say they just want to see your reaction ). Ok when I said "I didn't want Los Angeles to look point the finger of shame "; my old Coordinator of the Body of Elder said " well that's your punishment Pitchess ". Now I thought being disfellowship was the punishment. Well I'm out . Please leave commments and opinions ( former Elders I really need you to jump in on this ).
