Jehovah's Witnesses to hold
assembly Sunday
Jehovah's Witnesses from Starr
County will hold their annual
Special Day of Assembly on
Sunday, Sept. 5 in the Fort
Ringgold Auditorium.
This arrangement, which has
been in effect for several years, has
proven to be very beneficial, not
only because of the valuable
information which is presented, but
also because it provides an
opportunity for local Jehovah's
Witnesses to become familiar with
speakers who come from the world
headquarters of Jehovah's Witnesses
in Brooklyn, New York.
This year, David Giglio from
Brooklyn will present the principal
discourse.
A spokesman for the Jehovah's
Witnesses said. During the past
year, Jehovah's Witnesses have
greatly deepened their appreciation
for Jesus Christ by means of a
systematic study of his earthly life
and ministry.
"Therefore, the theme that will be
considered in this Special Day of
Assembly is quite appropriate,
namely, TET US FOLLOW OUR
GRAND MODEL WITH THE
UTMOST CARE AND
ATTENTION.'
"Beginning at 10 a.m., the public
is invited to listen to counsel on
how we can follow our Grand
FOLLOWING OUR GRAND
MODEL LEAD US?,' will be
presented
The public is invited. No
collections will be taken.
Los Testigos de Jehova del
condado Starr celebraran su anual
dia especial de asamblea Domingo,
5 de Septiembre de 1993, en el
auditorio de Fort Ringgold High
School.
Este arreglo, que ha sido vigente
por various ano~s, ha sido muy
provechoso, no solo por la
informacion valiosa que se presenta,
sino porque suministra la
oportunidad para que los Testigos
locales lleguen a familiarizarse
personalmente con oradores que
vienen de sede mundial de los
Testigos de Jehova, en Brooklyn,
New York.
Este an~o, David Giglio, de
Brooklyn, pronunciara el discurso
principal.
Durante el ultimo an~o, los
Testigos de Jehova han
profundizado mucho su aprecio por
el Senor Jesucristo por medio de un
estudio sistematico de su vida
terrestre.
En armonia con esto, es
apropiado el tema que se considera
en este dia especial de asamblea, a
saber, SIGAMOS A NUESTRO
GRAN DECHADO CON SUMO
CUIDADO Y ATENCION.
Se invita al publico a escuchar,
comenzando a las 10:00 a.m.,
