Be Sure to Attend the “Divine Sovereignty” Assembly!
1975 will, no doubt, go down in history as a year of very significant and interesting events, among them being the four-day “Divine Sovereignty” District Assembly of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Especially will this assembly be long remembered by those able to attend. We, therefore, trust that you will be among the throngs that are now making preparations to be there. Last year, 2,043,185 attended similar assemblies throughout the world.
Let us tell you something about the program that has been planned for this year’s assembly. The talks will cover a large range of important aspects of Christian living. Speakers will deal with such matters as love, mercy, kindness, patience, long-suffering and humility, and, by demonstrations and examples, they will show how valuable and practical these things are in everyday life. Other talks will stimulate you to keep spiritually awake and busy, to be confident and courageous, as well as to keep spiritually healthy and strong, in order that you may survive the perils and pressures of both the present and the future.
Bible prophecies and their fulfillment, and what they mean to us in this present generation, will be discussed. Other talks will take up the special problems that parents, children and young people are having. Questions that elders and others in the Christian congregation have been asking will be answered.
In recent years one of the special features at district assemblies has been the presentation of outstanding Bible dramas. This year will be no exception. In fact, it has been arranged for you to see four of the most moving and timely dramas yet staged.
There will be an opportunity for those desiring to symbolize their dedication to Jehovah to be baptized in water—at most assemblies, on Friday. Would it not be grand if the number getting baptized at this year’s assemblies should even surpass last year’s figure of 67,759?
The climax of the assembly will be the last day, when the widely advertised public discourse “One World, One Government, Under God’s Sovereignty” will be given. What an important message this should prove to be for mankind living in this troubled world of confusion and disunity!
These, then, are just a few of the reasons why we urge you to begin now to make arrangements to attend the 1975 district assembly at one of the locations listed below.
