You see, somehow a concept had emerged here in Mansfield that you couldn't meet in the home unless the brothers approved your home. Don't know how or why that came about. I do remember offering my home and being turned down.
In fact, 20 years later, I still fellowship with some of those people from the original gathering. (Who by the way have never met with LSM)

I think maybe you have the best testimony of what I've been talking about on both sides of the coin!

Oficial approvals of homes for meetings?

Ridiculous!

People who's real contacts in meetings seem to have really built them together?

Absolutely!
