LIVING AS CHRISTIANS
“A Gift in Hand for Jehovah”
How can we “come forward today with a gift in hand for Jehovah”? (1Ch 29:5, 9, 14) Below are various ways in which we can choose to make voluntary donations to support the work of Jehovah’s Witnesses, both locally and worldwide.
DONATIONS MADE ONLINE OR PLACED IN CONTRIBUTION BOXES SUPPORT:
THE WORLDWIDE WORK
construction and operation of branch facilities and remote translation offices
theocratic schools
special full-time servants
disaster relief
printing, video production, and digital publishing
LOCAL CONGREGATION EXPENSES
congregation expenses, such as utilities and basic maintenance of the Kingdom Hall
any resolutions made by the congregation to send funds to the branch office for:
Kingdom Hall and Assembly Hall construction worldwide
the Global Assistance Arrangement
other worldwide activities
CONVENTIONS AND ASSEMBLIES
Donations made to your regional convention are forwarded to the worldwide work. In turn, the expenses related to regional, special, and international conventions are paid from the worldwide work.
Donations made to a circuit are used to rent, operate, and maintain assembly venues and for other circuit-related expenses. A circuit may resolve to contribute excess funds to the worldwide work of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
