JEHOVAH’S Witnesses will, this weekend, host their annual three-day convention beginning Friday, July 27. The same convention will also be held the following week, August 3 – 5, 2018.
The convention will be held under the theme, ‘Be Courageous!’ at the Lenora National Track & Field Centre, West Coast Demerara.
In preparation of this event, the Witnesses have been actively participating in a campaign to invite the general public to attend.
“Admission is free! No collections taken!” a press statement from the organisation has said.
The three-day programme will feature 54 presentations that will include talks, audio dramas, interviews, and short videos. A highlight of the convention program will be the Public Bible Discourse: “The Resurrection Hope Imparts Courage-How.” This Bible-based talk will be presented on Sunday morning.
Additionally, a feature film entitled, “The Story of Jonah—A Lesson in Courage and Mercy,” will be shown on Sunday afternoon.
Each day, the program will start at 9:20 a.m. Also, the morning and afternoon sessions will be introduced by music videos prepared specifically for the convention.
To obtain more information on the conventions and the location, persons can log on to the official website of Jehovah Witnesses, jw.org, under the menu ‘About Us’ and select ‘Conventions.’
