It states that "The Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses is inviting the over 8,000,000 Witnesses worldwide to participate.", so that means us.

I wonder how many non-witnesses will see this on JW.Org and decide to participate.

This is going to feel so good to actually do something practical for our brothers and sisters in Russia! :)

May we all give our letter the very best effort! Also below is something very motivating concerning letters and what happened back in 1945 with Adolph Hitler!

 

*** w11 10/1 p. 14 “Defiance That Commands Respect” ***
Did Hitler receive letters of protest from church officials concerning the outrages perpetrated by the National Socialists, or Nazis? There were some, but such letters were few and far between.
In the Moscow archives, however, Dr.Eberle found a file containing a number of letters sent to Hitler by Jehovah’s Witnesses from different parts of Germany, protesting against the conduct of the Nazis. In fact, Witnesses from about 50 countries sent Hitler some 20,000 letters and telegrams protesting the mistreatment of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Thousands of Witnesses were arrested, and several hundred were executed or died following ill-treatment by the Nazis. Dr. Eberle concludes:

“In view of the millions of victims of the Nazi regime, this number [of Witness victims] appears small. But it nevertheless testifies to an act of collective and uncompromising defiance that commands respect.”

This is so exciting. I was able to take part in a letter writing campaign several times in the past. And, yes, this will be so much grander. There are over 8 million of us, and we now have the internet, so we all are made aware of this timely information. And, this, for our dear brothers and sisters in Russia. Thank you, Jehovah! 

I want to age without sharp corners, and have an obedient heart!
