Announcements
◆ Literature offer: January-April: Watchtower subscription, and three booklets, for $1.
◆ Congregations having older booklets in stock can encourage publishers to place two of these along with a later booklet when obtaining a Watchtower subscription.
◆ Gift subscriptions: In sending these to the Society, please mark “GIFT” at the top of the subscription slip. Also, please neatly print the giver’s name at the bottom of the slip so that we can notify the subscriber.
◆ At circuit assemblies, starting on January 31, the new public talk will be “What Is Behind the Spirit of Rebellion?”
◆ A special public talk scheduled for all congregations for Sunday, March 28, is “Restoration of All Things of Which God Spoke.” A manuscript for this will be sent to each congregation in due time. Special handbills, showing this lecture only, may be ordered now. If the circuit servant is visiting your congregation during that week, he will give the special lecture. If your circuit assembly falls on that weekend, the special talk may be scheduled for April 4.
◆ Memorial this year will be on Friday, April 9, after 6 p.m. Orders for Memorial invitations may be sent at the same time orders are submitted for the special public talk handbills, but on separate order forms. (See announcement on “Change in Price” in December Kingdom Ministry.) If the circuit servant is visiting your congregation during that week, the Friday-night meeting with the servants may be held on Saturday afternoon after the pioneer meeting.
