St Helena gets an airport!

[ChrisC]

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 noticed that news too. Until now the only way to get there was a ship from Cape Town, but it took five days to arrive and was not cheap.

Maybe it will give the publishers more territory.......visitors to the island

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.

269 attended the memorial. That's 1 out of 15

I think a very nice place to live with so many brothers and interested in the truth.
