◼ U.S. Selective Service regulations require that all men under the age of 26 who are (1) citizens and have reached 18 years of age or (2) noncitizens who move to the United States must register within 30 days. From the time a man registers until he turns 26, he must notify Selective Service within ten days of any change of address. Elders should remind those to whom this applies or will soon apply of their duty to register.​—Rom. 13:1.

◼ Since June has five full weekends, it would be an excellent month to auxiliary pioneer.

◼ Field Service Highlights: We are pleased to report four all-time peaks for the month of November 2012. These included peaks in regular pioneers of 196 in the Bahamas, 78 in Bermuda, 154,613 in the United States, and a new peak of 404 Bible studies in Bermuda. Also, when compared with the same month the previous year, the Turks and Caicos Islands had a 20.5-percent increase in regular pioneers. These fine increases give evidence that Jehovah’s people are not holding back in sharing the good news with others.​—Prov. 3:27.
