Thousands to Attend
Jehovah's Witness Convention in Liverpool
AN estimated 18,000 people will travel
to Liverpool, in August 2017, for the annual convention of Jehovah's Witnesses.
We are told that the theme of this year's convention is:- "Don't Give Up!"
This will be the 6th year the event has been held at the Liverpool ACC
"Arena." However, for the 1st time, this year there will be 2
separate
events.
That news has gone down well with members of staff at the ACC. Christine
Robinson, concierge at the arena, said:- "It is a joy to work with you.
Myself, the supervisors, event managers and staff all look forward to working
this event every year and have done for the past 5 years."
Other members of staff made similar comments like:- "Delighted to care for
another convention. Great to work with you again. The staff ask to be on duty."
The 1st 3 day event will begin on Friday, 4 August 2017 and the 2nd will take
place on Friday, 25 August 2017. An open invitation has been issued to the
public.
Jeff Stacey, a convention spokesman, states:- "With so many tragic events
happening both nationally and internationally, we truly believe the theme of
this year's convention couldn't be more timely! We will discover how the Bible
and even nature teach us lessons about how to endure. There will be a feature
film to enjoy each afternoon and on Sunday morning we are looking forward to the
encouraging discourse:- 'Never Give Up Hope!' Everyone is welcome, even if it is
just for an hour or 2 over the course of the weekend. We warmly invite all to
come and benefit from the educational programme!"
The convention is free to attend, and no collection will be taken. The
Liverpool events are among over 40 being held in the UK.
