804,518 Total Publishers for April—A New Peak!
Exceptional Number of 120,979 Auxiliary Pioneers!
Jehovah’s people have shown that they are ‘hearing’ and ‘observing’ what is written in the prophecy of Revelation. (Rev. 1:3) Their zealous efforts in helping others see the urgency of our times are evident in the all-time peaks experienced in April 1989. What are some of these peaks?
Total Publishers: 804,518. This is almost 24,000 more than we had in April 1988 and 7,414 more than our previous peak in August 1988.
Total Hours: 18,673,721. How encouraging that nearly 1,700,000 more hours were devoted to Kingdom activity than in April of last year!
Return Visits: 5,767,946. An increase of 5.5 percent or 302,130 more return visits than in April 1987, which was the month of our previous peak.
Home Bible Studies: 573,244. This is 3,150 more than we had last April our previous all-time peak month.
Auxiliary Pioneers: 120,979. What an outstanding peak, reflecting the efforts being put forth to herald the Kingdom hope! This is a 20-percent increase over our previous peak.
We are confident that Jehovah and his Son, Christ Jesus, are pleased as we extend ourselves in Kingdom service during “the Lord’s day.’ (Rev. 1:10) May we help thousands more to become part of the “great crowd” as the increase continues in these momentous days.—Rev. 7:9.
