Are you inactive? Disfellowshipped? Disassociated? Are you trying to fade away gradually from Jehovah's Witnesses? Are you struggling with doubts? Are you an unbelieving family member or friend of a Jehovah's Witness? Were you raised around Witnesses and feel out of place around others?

Leaving Jehovah's Witnesses creates hardships due to judgmental attitudes or the shunning from friends and family who are still active members in the religion. We hope we can all be of support to each other, while fully respecting each other's views, whatever they may be now.

Friends and non-JW family don't fully understand. We meet as a Support/Social group for ex-JWs/Friends because we have been there. We carry no agenda and no requirements from you. You can remain anonymous if you want to or share all you want. We only advertise "Meetup" on our table and don't even tell the venue that we are Ex-JW's, just that we are survivors of similar circumstances. Most meetups are for a meal or may be for coffee or drinks. The vast majority of meetups are in public places.

Our totally nonjudgmental group hopes to help each other learn and share experiences about successful and enjoyable lives outside of the JW religion. There is no discrimination of any sort in our group. At meetups, we may discuss our differences but we never belittle other thoughts.

No fees, no literature, no pressure. We just "meetup." That's it. If you want to talk or just listen as we encourage each other, that's great.
