I left the organisation around the year 2000 having been raised as a member and am no longer associated with the group. I include this period of my life within this organisation as part of my profile because as a change specialist this was my first and probably most important change of my life and I still learn from it today. This was a formative although painful part of my life which left me with few career opportunities and many unfulfilled promises. Being a publisher of the organisation involved public preaching and attending meetings. Over this period I operated as a full time Pioneer and Ministerial Servant which for me involved giving public talks, leading a book study group and leading a theocratic ministry school.
