Awesome stats. VERY encouraging thanks for posting.

 

Question though:

Peak Number of Publishers: 8,683,117 

These include all who are reporting time including unbaptized publishers yes?

 

Don't worry have found the answer. Ignore this.

Very encouraging statistics for 2019. Comparing in year 1999, we have a very big increase in number of lands reporting, peak publishers, and worldwide memorial attendance. 

Just need almost 20,000 plus to beat the record on total number baptized on 1999. 😁

Its interesting that it appears we are going to have a lot of focus on baptism next year.

New streamlined baptismal questions, 2 brothers instead of 3 and slightly altered public questions asked by the Baptismal Speaker... 

 

Coincise, precise and nice... 

 

We are well cared for by the Governing Body.

It seems that the new yearly figures are out now. Here is a 3 year comparison.

Less Bible studies, less congregation (possibly merging) and more partakers! Lol😎

Yes, I imagine those on the outside would look at those numbers - fewer bible studies and fewer congregations - as a negative but we know the truth. Obedience to the guidance to focus on progressive studies and not let our time be wasted on those that have no intention of ever serving Jehovah. Satan looks for different ways to distract us and spending time on unproductive studies is a great way to do that. We feel like we are spending time in spiritual pursuits but instead we're stagnant when we should be out looking for those rightly disposed. The reduction in the numbers shows that we are following direction - so encouraging.

The merges also show that our brothers are being good stewards of our funds which we can all appreciate. I know locally of 4 congregations that were dissolved and imagine many more will be as the merges/consolidations continue.
