I see the hosting countries, http://www.jw2018.org/  not the invited countries. Am I not looking in the right place?

 I am not sying I am Superman, I am only saying that nobody has ever seen Superman  and me in a room together.

I have to make a correction :blushing:. It was the Annual Meeting our letter was about, not the Special Convention. I've been in a brain fog since my accident...sorry 3 times for emphasis..

But we were invited to the AM :)

One small crack doesn't mean you are broken; it means that you were put to the test and didn't fall apart..

Click on the host country, and if you scroll down a bit, you will find the invited countries.

I wonder why other websites are used instead of a sub-domain of jw.org? I’m not searching to see how many years ahead they have reserved!

The conclusion of the matter, everything having been heard, is: Fear the true God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole obligation of man. Ec 12:13

I know the letter was read out in a nearby congregation in London today who have been invited. Oslo and Sri Lanka are the locations. Also, this time it is made clear that if your congregation is not invited, you are allowed to go with someone in a congregation that is, providing you still meet the qualifying criteria.

You can really see the internationalization of our brotherhood when you compare where our special conventions have been held over the past few years. Both this year and in 2016 there were seven conventions listed on the website; but in 2016, five of these were in "the West" (americas and europe) with only one in Asia. Whereas this year only three are in the West, and three locations are spread from the middle east to Asia and the Pacific! (where most humans live today)

Hi Brandon, trying to figure out your post. What is Italy doing on your list? What happened to Norway?

Ohhh. Wasn't there like a handy infographic that explained the differences? Can't remember.

Yes. There is a video that explains the difference but I can't find it.
