For July and August, David Beighle from Benicia has enjoyed the annual convention from Jehovah’s Witnesses titled, “Powerful by Faith!”. David said, “I really enjoyed the symposium from Friday afternoon titled, ‘Use Creation to Build Your Faith’ because it reminded me that if God knows the billions of stars by name, he will be able to remember all the personality traits and details of the loved ones I long to see in the resurrection”. David feels this convention has helped him be a better husband and more appreciative person. He continued to say, “this convention has made me realize that with faith in God’s desire to help me, I can overcome any challenge.”
Jehovah’s Witnesses have made their “Powerful by Faith!” convention available globally online to millions. With the pandemic still threatening the public’s health, the religious organization made their 2021 convention available for streaming in over 500 languages, uniting some 15-20 million people in 240 countries.
The program is designed to encourage strong faith based on facts and evidence. The two-part film “Daniel: A Lifetime of Faith” relates the story of how the prophet Daniel’s faith helps him survive trials. The series of talks titled “Imitate Women of Strong Faith!” features past and present examples of faithful women worthy of imitation by all.

“Faith has helped our global brotherhood to continue to thrive even during a pandemic,” said Robert Hendriks, U.S. spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses. “Our faith will continue to unite us in worship — even virtually — as millions gather in private homes around the world to enjoy a powerful and inspiring spiritual program.”
The event can be watched or downloaded by going to jw.org or JW Broadcasting on the free JW Library App or on streaming platforms. Released sessions and future sessions are free and accessible to all.
