Little Hearts, Big Moments: What Our Young Ones Learn at the Convention

For grown-ups, the regional convention is packed with rich spiritual instruction, emotional encouragement, and thoughtful application. But what about for a 4-year-old? What does a regional convention look like through their eyes?

For some, it might be the excitement of wearing a button-up shirt or sparkly sandals. For others, it might be the thrill of sitting next to their cousin and sharing quiet crayons. And for many, it's a long stretch of time that feels... well, long. 🥺 Yet even in the wiggles, whispers, and snack breaks, these little hearts are absorbing more than we might think.

🍼 Real talk: Some of our little ones may remember only one name or one scene—but that one moment might stick for a lifetime.

What Makes an Impression on a Child?

Young children may not be taking structured notes, but they’re learning. When they hear a name like “Elijah” or “Jesus” that they’ve colored in before, their eyes light up. When a talk mentions something as simple as being kind, they often lean in.

Sometimes, what they remember is not the full explanation of a Bible account, but the feeling: that the convention is a special place where everyone is paying attention to Jehovah—and that includes them too.

Reaching Hearts When You Can’t Knock: Thoughtful Letters for the 2025 “Pure Worship” Invitation Campaign

As Jehovah’s Witnesses, we love connecting with people face-to-face. But let’s be honest — sometimes that’s just not possible. Gated communities, locked apartment buildings, barking dogs, “no soliciting” signs... 🐶🚪 We've all been there. Yet, these obstacles don’t have to stop us from reaching hearts. That’s where letter writing shines — not as a backup plan, but as a thoughtful and effective way to share good news.

Of course, letter witnessing isn’t new to us. Many of us have been using it for years in those harder-to-reach territories. But as we gear up for the 2025 “Pure Worship” Regional Convention, it’s a great time to revisit how to make our letters meaningful and personal — the kind that people might actually read… and feel touched by.

💡 Tip: If a home is unreachable due to a locked gate or keypad, take note and return with a letter in hand — or drop one in the mail.

What Makes a Letter Stand Out?

Ever received a letter that felt cold and templated? Most of us can tell right away when a message is mass-produced. So when we’re writing to invite someone to the convention, we want to reflect Jehovah’s love — warmly, respectfully, and sincerely.

From Rwanda to Japan: Creative Ideas for Convention Gift-Giving

There’s something incredibly heartwarming about meeting brothers and sisters from around the world at an special convention. The hugs, the smiles, the shared faith—even when we don’t speak the same language, the connection is unmistakable. And what better way to celebrate that bond than with a small, thoughtful gift?

Whether you’re traveling overseas or hosting guests in your own country, many have found that a little memento can go a long way. It doesn't have to be big or expensive—just a gesture that says, “I’m happy to meet you.” So if you’re wondering what to bring, or how to make the most of this special opportunity, here are some fun and practical ideas.

✈️ Travel tip: Save space in your suitcase by packing flat items—like postcards or sticker sheets. They’re lightweight and easy to carry!

Affordable but Thoughtful Ideas

Some delegates bring handcrafted bookmarks or Scripture cards. Others choose small items from their home country’s dollar store and personalize them. A pen with your city’s name. A keychain with a scenic photo. Even a mini notepad with a sticker from your region—it’s the thought that counts.

Passport Not Required – Feeling at Home Wherever Jehovah’s People Gather

There’s something unforgettable about standing shoulder to shoulder with brothers and sisters from different corners of the earth, all united in worship to Jehovah. Whether it’s singing a Kingdom song in another language, sharing a smile with someone you’ve never met, or simply hearing the familiar phrase “agape love” said in a different accent—it all reinforces one beautiful truth: we are part of a global family.

For many of us, attending an international convention is more than just a special assignment—it’s a powerful reminder of the unity Jehovah has built among his people. Though our backgrounds, languages, and cultures may differ, our hearts beat with the same faith, the same joy, and the same spiritual goals.

🌍 Ever shared a songbook with someone you just met? Somehow, you’re instantly friends.

A Language We All Understand

One of the most moving aspects of an international convention is seeing how Jehovah’s organization bridges language gaps so beautifully. You might be listening through an interpreter headset or reading along in your own language, but what connects us isn’t just the words—it’s the love behind them. From the warm welcome of local brothers to the laughter shared over packed lunches, there's a universal language that binds us all: pure worship.

Caring for Your Study Materials: A Small Act of Respect

We treasure our congregation Bible study sessions because they help us draw closer to Jehovah and strengthen our appreciation for His Word. But have you ever pulled out your study book only to find the cover curling, pages creased, or an accidental coffee stain from a midweek mishap? (We’ve all been there!) Taking care of our study materials isn’t just practical—it’s an expression of gratitude for the spiritual treasures we receive.

📖 A well-loved study book doesn’t have to look like it’s been through the Great Tribulation!

1. Treating Our Study Materials with Respect

Jehovah’s Word deserves the best care, and so do the study materials that help us understand it. Whether it’s our Bible, the "Lessons You Can Learn from the Bible" book, or meeting workbooks, these tools support our spiritual growth. Keeping them in good shape ensures they’ll last through years of study, family worship, and personal reflection.
