Irène BANGWELA, a delegate from RDC, says she had been saving for months to afford the transport fee from Country to Cameroon. Under the theme: ETERNAL HAPPINESS. PARTICIPATS say they have experience a foretaste of this happiness as soon as they stepped into the convention ground. Mina Nassem from the USA holds the witnesses from Cameroon in high regards for the love and warm welcome she received from all others around her. Organisers are hopeful that the message of this come together will reach home to these witnesses. This is the happiness being radiated from the inner bull of the Japoma stadium by these thousands of witnesses.
Each of the three days is made up of two sessions daily.
60 videos are scheduled for the six sessions
It is a come together that cuts across cultures and daily experiences of life from different areas. These put together help us better understand and enrich our experiences of life. That is the reason for this yearly gathering by Jehovah witnesses world wide.
