Witnesses dedicate kingdom hall in Tlokweng

Hundreds of people attended the dedication of the kingdom hall of the The Gaborone Village congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses in Tlokweng on Saturday.

The kingdom hall is the centre for worship of Jehovah God. The hall was constructed over only two weekends last month by 400 unpaid volunteers. Most of the volunteers travelled from South Africa at their own expense and other areas in Botswana.

In southern Africa about 50 kingdom halls are built each year and this one will be the 55th hall to be dedicated by Jehovah Witnesses since last September.  The construction work is overseen and administered by 25 regional building committees in South Africa and neighbouring countries and is a reflection of the worldwide work of the more than seven million Jehovah's Witnesses in 236 lands. Due to the Bible study work of Witnesses there is an ongoing need for more kingdom halls.
