The congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Pärnu

The article continued: “The congregation of Jehovah’s proclaimers was established in Pärnu a year and a half ago. At the beginning there were 25 members; now it has grown to 120 . . .

“The first impression is quite positive. People—mostly young couples—are friendly, neatly dressed, and open-minded. It is astonishing that the children were so disciplined, because it is not easy for a little child to sit in one place for an hour and a half—but they did.”

Describing how Jehovah’s Witnesses differ from other religions, the newspaper explained: “They emphasize the Paradise that lies ahead. Also it is notable how well the congregation know the Bible, and they cite it at every possible moment.” In conclusion the article said: “Those 120 people, who are Jehovah’s proclaimers, have made their decision; and they are sure that it is the right one. Their faith and its proclamation is the focus of their life.”
