Jehovah’s Witnesses recently launched a month-long campaign to invite local residents to a special event this month.
On Saturday, April 12, Jehovah’s Witnesses around the world will gather for their annual commemoration of the death of Jesus Christ. In previous years, the event has drawn some 20 million people globally. In Claremont, the community is welcome to join at 7:30 p.m. at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses on River Road. Across the river in Bellows Falls, the event will take place at 7 p.m. at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses on Rockingham Road.
“We are engaged in a month-long campaign to invite as many people from the community as possible to this very special event in remembrance of Jesus Christ,” said Bruce Dobbs, spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses. “Each year, millions of Jehovah’s Witnesses extend this invitation worldwide and all are welcome.”
The annual observance of the Lord’s Evening Meal will feature a talk highlighting the importance of Jesus’ death and how all mankind benefits from his sacrifice.
The event is one hour in duration and is free and open to the public.
“We are engaged in a month-long campaign to invite as many people from the community as possible to this very special event in remembrance of Jesus Christ,” Dobbs said.
