I have a question. When your out of the JW .Org. What do you believe in? Do you maintain a close relationship with GOD? Do you apply the Bible principles to your everyday life? I’m just curious... May peace be with you🙏🏻😇💞🌎
@@finalscorce For me personally I pray to Jehovah every day, I read the bible every day but with new eyes opened. I use at least 10 other translations and I research like crazy. Just looking at creation you can see God's handiwork. Delving into Satanic knowledge shows that the Devil does exist and is very active on earth. I research the Free Masons and know that they rule the earth and worship the Devil. I try to practice, like Jesus said, love Jehovah God with my whole heart...and love my neighbor as myself. All the rules that JWs purport is preposterous.
Oh my god! I wish that I could have been on your cruise! I have dreams that have been shattered for decades! I'm 61 and am 6 weeks being free from Watchtower.
@@latoyaglvr Thanks! I'm writing a book about my life. It started in Canada, then the Caribbean, back to Canada, Quebec, mainland China, back to Canada.
This should be part of the disfellowshipping package. "Brother blabla is no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses. This month's contribution will go toward his ex-JW cruise." Think it might catch on?
I think this will be great for a recently Disfellowshipped person who just lost all their friends and family. I really hope those people find this, this initiative could literally save lifes.
So glad you got to go! I saw Christian and Katja mentioning renewing their vows and about the cruise awhile back on their channel. Looks like so much fun and lovely scenery!
This is a wonderful video! Thank you so much for posting! I'll never be able to see sights like that in person so this is a terrific substitute. And I agree 100% about how much fun exjw can have together. I was recruited and baptised at age 33, so this applies to people like me especially, who had a choice to join and were not born in: The people I was looking for when I joined the JWs are EX-JWs!
Loved this video..you captured great moments from the cruise! Was great to meet you 😁🛳 Thanks for filming such nice shots of our wedding vows. Mind sending us the footage? 👍🤗
I have yet in all the 12.5 years I've been out to celebrate my own birthday but I have celebrated both my daughter's birthdays every single year! One day I do want to celebrate my own cake and all. I kinda felt silly about this for a long time, it's nice to know im not the only adult who wants to do the same.
Man, I almost wish I were an ExJW so I could go on a cruise with you guys! Lol. That looked like a lot of fun. So cool that you, Christian and Katja got to meet in person! Btw, I love your contagious laugh! . You’re adorable! You seem like the sweetest person. Glad you had such a great time and thank you for sharing your experience. 👍 ✨💚✨
Thanks for sharing your beautiful vacation! I live in the PNW and I gotta say it has amazing scenery. The Jw carts ruined what would have been a lovely photo! 🤬
Just found the channel and discovering there’s a whole exjw world I never knew about. Would be amazing to join a cruise. I’ve never really conversed with another exjw. I’ve tried at times to explain witness trauma to boyfriends or close friends but they’ll just never get it. Hopefully, if I’m still alive once the Covid situation calms down, I’ll be able to join.
Looks like an awesome blast of a time! Alaska is gorgeous! A cruise is therapeutic and a way to recharge your batteries for life in general in addition to getting away from the "watchtower" stuff in ways. Germ even showed submissiveness by wearing His Head Covering! 😇🧢
Yes - even though we were with exJWs it was still a break from "Watchtower" stuff overall! No internet while out at sea, so it was a nice breather from the constant news cycle. :) And I'm not sure I've removed my head covering once since leaving!
I had friends who took several cruises, never JW's, their favorite was the Alaska cruise. They took that one several times and they were warm weather people.
WOW so very, very, very cool of you to share all of this with us. I hope to go one an EX JW cruise someday. I live in Washington state so would def want to do this cruise.
Is this the cruise that's been going a few years now, some of the guys on Reddit? I was hoping to go a few years ago but health issues prevented me. That's if it's the same one and seems like it is. Katja looked so beautiful, as always.
Im PIMO and just discovered your channel and am just discovering all this large community. So many kind beautiful people. Im working towards leaving completely i stopped going out to service and rarely go to meetings. Ive been disfellowshipped before but die to circumstances i wrote a letter to the elders and went back in. But i hate everything about it
@krissykat It's gonna be hard but you are on the right path i don't know how reassuring that is coming from someone who was never affiliated with the church but it's good your away from that group they brainwash there're members may I also suggest if you haven't already heard of this RUclipsr called Telltale a disfellowshiped JW who does well put together videos of the organization. I'm really interested in hearing your story and wanted to assure you that things will get better for you now that your free do what you wish and make the most you can out of life.
sage huffman thank u so much for your kind and encouraging words. That was really sweet. I’m subscribed to Telltale...he’s one of my favorite RUclipsrs. So, honestly I don’t know what kind of life I want for myself. It does feel good to be free from this controlling group, however my entire family is still in so if I want to have a relationship with my mom and sister I can’t let them know how I feel about the religion. That would make me an apostate and to them that’s an unforgivable sin. I’m just not ready to do that yet. I’m so spiritually lost right now. I don’t know that there’s even a God. I always thought that growing up. When I was 5 years old I was sexually abused for the first time by one of the church leaders. The abuse continued until I was 13. I would pray for God to help me, to save me somehow. But of course my prayers did not change anything so I figured God couldn’t hear me or that I deserved the abuse somehow. The only reason it finally stopped was because he got accepted to work at the headquarters in New York and moved away. I thought I was free until another church leader took advantage of me one night at a slumber party. I was asleep on the sofa and woke up to him putting me in a choke hold and he took my virginity that night. After that I was pretty sure God didn’t exist. So I guess first step for me is some therapy and making new friends.
@@krissykatportal Hi I just got out recently and l am in your same shoes with my parents. They are fully in and I was raised in the "truth". I am completely horrified of your situation that happened to you and l was tearing up when I read it. Don't lose your faith in God. You seem like a really nice person and I stumbled upon this several months after you wrote it so I hope you have found some new genuine friends but if you haven't I'm here to be your friend.
@@krissykatportal you're welcome 😊. I am only on Facebook right now but I have lost a lot of Facebook "friends" due to my disassociation. They really weren't friends to begin with just pretending because l was related to them in the faith so I have to start over making new friends. Fortunately all my 6 brothers and sisters even though we were all raised in the truth never stayed in as long as me. Some of them got baptized but have been inactive for many years so they were happy l left although I haven't told all of them yet only my 2 sisters.. I'm growing a beard so I'm going to shock them in a few more weeks with my new look lol. Anyway l plan on shutting down my Facebook soon and restarting everything new on Instagram but if you want to look me up on Facebook while it's still up is under Adair Morgan. I live in Miami. Take care and God bless.
They knocked on my door so so often at my old house that I threatened court action to make them stop, their answer was but the old residents welcomed us.....wtf !
Man do I wish that I found the group before the cruise to Alaska. But I'm going in February! I sure hope you get to go on that one too because I want to meet you so much Germ. Thank you for sharing his video! It was great seeing Chrissy and Lisa on here who I just got to meet in August. Wonderful people!!
I'm glad that you went on this Cruise & you're having a good time. Thanks for sharing this video. I never would have thought that spending that much money on a cruise is a good thing for many reasons. Next month, I'll be going on my 3rd cruise with BlackNonBelievers.org because Mandisa Thomas keeps twisting my arm to go. LOL.
How anyone can dislike this video is beyond me. Maybe it is a jealous Borg Drone that wishes they were on a cruise? lol . Anyway! Great video! I didn't know that these were a thing! I just might have to try one out in the future too!
Are you going in February? I'm so sad this is the first one I missed since they started. Looks like y'all had a blast. Love Lisa, Chrissy and Mary. Wish I could have met all the exjw cruise newbies!
this is crazy kinda like ex -mormon day in utah. i hope there was some great entertainment as .well some psychiatric sessions !oh my gosh katya .looks like she s wearing the hopediamond so cute
I ve met many JWs who are lovely. I worry about them. Every minute is spent shoring up their own indoctrination. It s hard to have a conversation that doesn t come back to the Bible. But they are lovely people
In Kyrgyzstan, after a conflict with an elder, Sadykov Eldiyar committed suicide in 2007, and last year, Baigashkaev's brother Mirbek also committed suicide. They weve Bethelites
Beautiful trip- jws on phone, back in 80s it was almost a df offence, they have just came out, so like computer such a real no no- so many flip flops. I find it offensive that they were txt and not tending to the flock, lol lol
Kinda like what some people used to think about "WAR" vets from Vietnam. Nobody talked about it....people are afraid...it's an"Uneasy" subject......their might be one in the family........we didn't know....I don't want to admit to anything. That's what my husband compared it to, and he had several family members in that war. He was born in the"Disorganization" in 71" and left in 90". It's easier to talk about it now, and the world is waking up to a lot of things about that mess you all came from. And really talk about your present and the future. Hey Anthony Morris...my husband still looking for his pet tiger. And wheres my scotch and soda? Your"Service dept." is a little slow of late! Stay strong apostates. And crazy people are alright, it's just those nut cases you have to worry about. Thanks for getting out and welcome home!
So do I have to join JW to get kicked out to go on a cruise? I'm Christian. Much love to you all. Jesus Christ loves you. 💓💓💓💓💓💙💙💙💙 1 Corinthians 15:2-4
Here's a link to their cruise group in case you missed it in the description. :) facebook.com/groups/165156193871447/

It’s a trap!!!

Welcome to freedom

Omg! I WOULD LOVE THIS!! To go and meet tons of ex-JWs, socialize, drink, and just be free ...
It looks amazing! Thanx for doing this video, I'd never have known about them otherwise. I hope to get on one at some point in the future 👍🏻
So glad you went on this cruise. Memories to last your lifetime! Thanks for sharing!
Just saying. A "first" birthday party for cruise goers would be bomb af
Art Lovaa I would cry. Never blown (a candle) in my life 😢😢😢
@@mikedean5060 I feel you.
🕯️🕯️🕯️ Do it 🙂
I have yet in all the 12.5 years I've been out to celebrate my own birthday but I have celebrated both my daughter's birthdays every single year! One day I do want to celebrate my own cake and all. I kinda felt silly about this for a long time, it's nice to know im not the only adult who wants to do the same.
oh my god I'm laughing so hard, the two JW brothers at 13:40 are from my old congregation!

Oh you all look so depressed and hating life! Lovely renewal of vows. Great scenery. Laughs and natural wonders.
Omg those two ladies seem like such fun! I would like to go on one of those cruises one day😊
We are wayyyy funner in person!!!!
Awesome video!!! Thank you so much for sharing. I love Alaska!
I liked the symbolic passing of the wine!
Lisa Wakefield made me laugh out loud!
That looks like a lot of fun. And for an agoriphobic introvert that's really something.
gatoelurso it’s so safe being an agoraphobic introvert ☺️
@@krissykatportal "safe" but lonely.
Omg I’m agoraphobic too!!! Thank “god” for Klonopin
Sometimes loneliness bothers me but it’s either that or panic attacks and dealing with toxic abusive people 😐
Mike Dean meds are great for sure but I’ll even settle for an ice cold IPA to calm my nerves....or 6
Wow! How exciting! So Sorry I missed the one going to Alaska!! I'd love to join you all!!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful vacation! I live in the PNW and I gotta say it has amazing scenery. The Jw carts ruined what would have been a lovely photo! 🤬
Passenger Announcement 🔊: “Christmas on the Lido Deck at noon.”
Woooow🤭🙌🏽

Hey Jerm Loved that you showed us the cruise aspect. Peace bruh
This is people flourishing, starting to live their best life!
Nice heartfelt video. It made me happy. 🙏
How fun!!! Loved the wine passing, hahahaha. I'm telling you, watchtower has lost and is losing it's best people.
Chloe S it’s a dumpster fire. And I’m making s’mores :)
Wow. Thanks for sharing your cruise with us! Wish I could gone and gotten to know you and some others.
Enjoy your presence.
Loved your video Germ, looks like you all had a great time and Katja and Christiaan renewing vows, wonderful :)
I've met up with 5. One-on-One, and it's been great. We are all still friends.

Looked like so much fun! Shout out to Mary! 😁
That was PRICELESS!!! An entire cruiseliner of Ex-JW disembark and all happily walk by you-know-what. LOL
I’d love to meet another ex JW. It’s so hard picking up the pieces of my shattered life trying to start over from scratch.

I'm afraid not, but I'm making time for the Aug/Sept one!
OH!!! I live near Seattle. That makes me sad, I could have met you :(
Same here!!
Agreed! I need to go to a ex JW meetup so bad!!!
In a word: wow. Gorgeous scenery. I'm kinda surprised these cruises exist.
That thumbnail though is truly hilarious
What a pity for the rest of the world , that we can t be a part of these meetings
I'm glad you had a great adventure. Dig the hats
wedding on cruse sooooo romantic
Omg. I love your music in background.
I loved my exjw cruise experience…friends I’ll have forever ❤️
Very cool!
this is crazy kinda like ex -mormon day in utah. i hope there was some great entertainment as .well some psychiatric sessions !oh my gosh katya .looks like she s wearing the hopediamond so cute
I magically run into exJWs constantly and ones I’ve randomly know in my life have become pretty close comrades
Suddenly I need a crown.
Aaaww I would have loved to go on that cruise! Please let me know when the next one is.
I'm definitely jealous!
Why did I think this was a video of "Ex-Justice Warriors" on a cruise?
I would’ve been so freaked out that the ship would sink. What was the name of the boat ?
the DisFellow Ship
I guess life is more adventurous when you are not panicking that the world will end soon
You've convinced me to try and exJW cruise!
I ve met many JWs who are lovely. I worry about them. Every minute is spent shoring up their own indoctrination. It s hard to have a conversation that doesn t come back to the Bible. But they are lovely people
In Kyrgyzstan, after a conflict with an elder, Sadykov Eldiyar committed suicide in 2007, and last year, Baigashkaev's brother Mirbek also committed suicide. They weve Bethelites
Come to think of it, I haven't met any XJW in person either!
I wish I could have gone!
Counting hours being lazy up there in ALASKA... HAHA
Beautiful trip- jws on phone, back in 80s it was almost a df offence, they have just came out, so like computer such a real no no- so many flip flops. I find it offensive that they were txt and not tending to the flock, lol lol
13:17 had me 😂😂
Celebrate your freedom and awakening by giving blood and saving lives.
It's still illegal for gay people to give blood, so I'll go cruising until American voters get their act together if that's alright with you?
I actually personally know chrissey ! I love her!

I have not met anyone else yet either. A cruise would be nice.
Ok you need to message me when the next cruise is. This would be a blast
I want to go...let’s gamble!
Finally someone who likes a Moscow Mule! Most people screw their nose up when I say what it is.
Nice video.
I want!!
So do I have to join JW to get kicked out to go on a cruise? I'm Christian. Much love to you all. Jesus Christ loves you. 💓💓💓💓💓💙💙💙💙 1 Corinthians 15:2-4
How many exjws were on the cruise?
Next time invite Daro on a cruise 😂
This!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭♥️
Cruise on a lake of fire, ey? :D
Well, they don't look evil... Imagine that.
Would love to do this some time ♥️most ex jdubs I get along with ... most
Lol
What do you mean about "finding a masonic temple?"
They probably found a Masonic temple, they're all over North America.
Are all the passengers exjw?
They're not - that would be pretty amazing though! We did actually run into another exJW by happenstance, though.
