Three-day Program Promises Only Good News!
It’s almost summer and the Garcia family could be headed to a theme park, the beach, or even visiting grandparents for the weekend. Instead, Efrain and Janneth Garcia and their three kids are eagerly anticipating a three-day convention with a few thousand people who will come to hear exciting good news!
“Raising children, especially teenagers, is a challenge. The Bible drama is our family’s favorite part of the convention. It’s like watching a feature film that helps us learn and apply qualities like love and patience,” said Efrain, a San Antonio resident.
“When Sunday afternoon arrives, we are never ready to leave the peaceful environment and the new friends we’ve made.”
One of the largest convention organizations in the world returns to San Antonio with a much-anticipated motivational program to comfort and encourage the public.
In a world where bad news endlessly streams on social media, TV, and radio, Jehovah’s Witnesses will present their 2024 “Declare the Good News!” convention series beginning in May. The free, three-day live event is expected to draw more than 21,000 attendees to the city over the course of 16 weekends.
“Constant bad news can have a very negative impact on us as individuals. This convention will be a breath of fresh air to all in the greater San Antonio area,” said Sean Butler, local spokesperson for Jehovah’s Witnesses. “Three days of this good news message will be like an anchor helping us to not lose hope and stabilizing us during rocky times.”
The “Declare the Good News!” convention will present Bible-based videos, discourses, and interviews on topics such as…
- Why Do We Need Good News?
- What Will You Do “for the Sake of the Good News”?
- Why We Don’t Fear Bad News
Saturday features a baptism of candidates from surrounding communities, while a two-part video feature will captivate the audience on Friday and Saturday mornings. Prior to each convention, local congregations will engage in a campaign to invite community members to this free event.
Last year, nearly 13 million people attended more than 6,000 three-day conventions worldwide.
