Jehovah’s Witnesses returning to in-person meetings worldwide April 1

All congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses across the world are being encouraged to begin holding in-person meetings during the week of April 1.

After decades of learning and association, Barrio views other congregants as family and the Kingdom Hall as a place to kindle love and kindness.

Throughout the Bible, language of family and friendship is used to talk about our relationship with God.
