This little volcanic island has a population of 4000 and around 122 publishers. A ratio of 1 to 33! (2016 yearbook)

How will the opening of an airport affect the ministry I wonder. :)

I've always been fascinated by St Helena. This is the place on Earth  with the highest ratio of Witnesses to general population.

 

With 1 Witness for every 30 people, everyone on the island knows a Witness.  Odds are every brother or sister works with at least one fellow believer.    You probably see a Witness every day.

Studying our yearly results, St. Helena has had the closest ratio of Witnesses per population for some years.  Before that it was Guadeloupe.  At that time I remember reading a letter from a brother in Guadeloupe that if you got a RV, it was already someone else's call. Such a problem.  Back to St. Helena, it was the place of Napoleon Bonaparte's second exile Many think  it was Elba, which was his first exile. He died in St. Helena. I remember seeing a popular picture of Napoleon Bonaparte with his hand tucked into his vest and in my imagination (I know, too active) I can picture Napoleon, if eligible for resurrection, in that same portrait position, but pulling out a Watchtower.
