2017 regional convention theme

[MM9106]

Love the design of the invitation. Can't wait to see the program and see the talk titles, scriptures for each talk, and the songs that'll be used. I'm hoping that the revised NWT is released in Spanish at this convention.

Our congregation coordinator said it would be next week for the letter to be read.  Maybe it is just us.

My daughter just informed me that their convention is July 28-30 in Toledo Ohio (they have a Tuesday meeting).

It was announced at our meeting tonight that our convention is August 25-27. I look forward to seeing the videos that will be incorporated into the talks

on which Bible text is the Convention Theme based?.......

What an encouraging convention theme! It appears it will be based on one of the following scriptures:

 

"Therefore, we do not give up, for even if the man we are outside is wasting away, certainly the man we are inside is being renewed from day to day."—2 Corinthians 4:16.

 

"So let us not give up in doing what is fine, for in due time we will reap if we do not tire out."—Galatians 6:9.

 

"For your part, brothers, do not give up in doing good."—2 Thessalonians 3:13.

any confirmation yet as to what scripture the RC is based on?    

...   I'm leaning toward 2 Thessalonians 3:13 as it seems to fit in with  Our yeartext for 2017: “Trust in Jehovah and do what is good.”

I guess with my next Monday meeting, I'll know for my congregation in Cleveland Ohio area. 

 

Nothing was said this past Monday.

My congregation in Nigeria is Badagry 5 in October. I can't wait for the RC to begin. The letter was read today.

So... the 2017 RC Theme is "Don't Give Up!" (in English) ?  This is confirmed?

Yes, the theme "Don't Give Up!" has been confirmed multiple times here (and also by a letter that has been sent from the Branch and read at CLAM this week)  we are now trying to find out what scripture the RC is based on?

Yea it is confirmed by rumor for the most part.  Nothing released from the Branch that I have seen.

The letter gives the theme...

[Hope]

Sorry -- I'd just seen the translations from Spanish..  need to read more carefully.  Thank you!

[James the Less]

Sorry to be pedantic, but is it "Don't Give Up!" or "Do Not Give Up!" ?

[Hope]

*that's sorta what i was getting at...  

[Qapla]

Regardless of the theme - we were told tonight that our Convention is June 30 - July 2 in Jacksonville, Fl
