IN a world where bad news endlessly streams on social media, TV and radio, a three-day live event open to the public will deliver only good news!
One of the largest convention organizations in the world returns to the Langley Events Centre in Langley with a much-anticipated motivational program to comfort and encourage the public.
Jehovah’s Witnesses will present their 2024 “Declare the Good News!” convention in Punjabi the weekend of August 9-11, 2024. The free event is expected to draw hundreds of attendees to the city from across BC, Alberta and Ontario, fueling Langley’s economy with local spending at stores, hotels and restaurants.
“Jehovah’s Witnesses are excited to be in the Vancouver area again to host our conventions in different languages, including Punjabi,” said Robert Ferro, local spokesperson for Jehovah’s Witnesses. “These conventions are a highlight of the year and will help many people see that there is good news we can trust and that can help us now.”
The “Declare the Good News!” convention will present Bible-based videos, discourses and interviews on topics such as…
- Why Do We Need Good News?
- Why We Don’t Fear Bad News
- The Good News According to Jesus
Saturday features a baptism of candidates from surrounding communities, while a two-part video feature will captivate the audience on Friday and Saturday mornings. Prior to the convention, local congregations are engaging in a campaign to invite the Punjabi speaking community to this free event.
Last year, nearly 13 million people attended more than 6,000 three-day conventions worldwide.
