Jimmy: This is just a suggestion. Whatever you do, don't tell any active JW what you are about to send. If the Elders are tipped off, they may choose not to open your letter and give it over to the PO.
When I sent mine certified to each Elder, at their home, they were not epecting it, and signed for it. They at least had the opportunity to read it privately. Also they are without the advantage of asking you what your letter is about.
When I was an Elder, once in a while I would get a DA letter from a JW leaving the org. If they tried to hand it to me at the KH, I and other Elders would probe them before we read it.
If the letter was sent to me as Cong. Secretary, I always read it all the way through. I should say that I never received such a well thought out letter as yours. You gave a lot of food for thought.
I don't know if this will be of benefit to you, but I thought you may want my experience on this.
