JEHOVAH’s Witnesses will this weekend hold their annual convention at the National Park in Georgetown and they are extending an invitation to everyone.

The theme for this year’s convention is “Imitate Jesus”, spokesperson Samuel Moore said in a press statement yesterday.

“Jesus, the founder of Christianity, is widely considered as one of the most influential and significant men who ever lived. As Christians, a core belief of Jehovah’s Witnesses is that Jesus lived his life as a model for us to follow.
“The “Imitate Jesus” Convention will examine Jesus’ life, as outlined in the bible and will emphasize how all – regardless of their background, lifestyle, or religion – can benefit in practical ways from his example and teachings.
“A highlight of the programme will be the keynote address on Friday morning entitled, “Concealed in him are all the treasures of wisdom,” Moore stated in the release.
There is no admission fee. Conventions of Jehovah’s Witnesses are supported entirely by voluntary donations.
The programme will begin each day at 09:20 AM. About 6,000 persons are expected at the National Park for the Bible- based programme.
Worldwide, there are over 8,000,000 Jehovah’s Witnesses in more than 115,000 congregations.
