Brothers, my sister and I got selected for Denver! 😭🥹🥹🥹🥹 I guess some people didn't confirm, so we ended up being selected there. I checked the portal this morning, saw the news, and ran straight to hug my mom. I'll start getting my mariachi outfit ready! 😭❤️

I am so happy for you both. Enjoy the preparation and planning 😍

Me alegro muchísimo por vosotros dos. ¡Disfrutad de los preparativos y la planificación ! 😍

Thank you, sister! This will be the first international convention for both my sister and me. Everyone says it's an unforgettable experience 🥹, and we're so excited to meet brothers and sisters from all over the world! 🌎 If anyone has recommendations on what gifts to bring or any other suggestions, we would really appreciate them, especially since I believe ours will be the first one in May. ❤️

Give yourself time to acclimate to the altitude. The air is a little thinner there.

Sigo pensando lo mismo. Pero me alegro muchísimo por los dos. ¡Disfruten al máximo de esta maravillosa experiencia! 

Thank you so much! I had already lost hope, but everything worked out in the end. Many brothers and sisters cancel their invitations. Above all, I thank Jehovah. I really hope you get selected too and can share the good news with me soon. Sending you my warmest regards! ❤️

Not sure if those in Britain who are not assigned to an international convention received this part of an announcement this week:

 

More than 12,000 (for 3,000 delegate spaces) brothers and sisters applied to attend the convention in Cardiff, while over 32,000 (for 7,000 delegate spaces) applied to attend the convention in London. 😲

My congregation has been invited to the International Convention in Seattle, Washington, USA for August of 2027.  4,500 international delegates have been invited and I don't know know how many Witnesses local to Washington state are invited.  I have family a few hours north of me by the Canadian border that have been invited as well.  But not all of Washington state is invited.  I have volunteered for volunteer activities to help the delegates.  I'm so excited already, I have been excited since we found out in September.  In 2014 we were invited to an international convention in Seattle, but the location of the convention is going to be different this time and the venue holds less people.  So I have friends whose congregations were invited last time but not this time.  I'm so happy that I get to go.
