Kohala Residents Invited to Two Special Events in March
KOHALA, Hawai‘i – March 2, 2024—While the date Sunday, March 24, may pass imperceptibly
for many, millions around the world will gather at sundown to commemorate the death of
Jesus Christ.
Considered the most important day of the year for Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Memorial is
observed annually on Nisan 14 of the Jewish calendar in adherence to Jesus’ statement found
at Luke 22:19, “Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” Though there are over 8.6 million
Jehovah’s Witnesses around the world, almost 20 million people attended the event last year.
“Around the world, many people who are not Jehovah’s Witnesses attend the Memorial. We
hope that members of our local community will also join us in remembering the death of Jesus
Christ to show gratitude for his sacrifice,” said Robert Lamb, spokesperson for Jehovah’s
Witnesses. “While it is a solemn occasion, it is also a joyous one.”
The one-hour event will feature a talk highlighting the significance of Jesus’ death and what it
means for all of mankind.
On Hawai‘i Island, a special campaign will be launched during March 2024 to invite local
residents to attend the annual observance of the Lord’s Evening Meal as well as a special public
talk that will be delivered the week before.
Titled “The Resurrection—Victory Over Death!”, the special talk will be delivered at local
Kingdom Halls on the weekend of March 16 and 17, 2024. This 30-minute, Bible-based public
discourse will focus on the scriptural hope of a resurrection of the dead in the near future.
Kohala resident Kirk Eubank says: “Three generations of our family have for decades looked
forward, each and every year, to the special talk, followed by the Memorial celebration of
Christ’s death. Both events are practical and instructional, but they also help us pause and
reflect on all the things we can be grateful for, things that we consider blessings from God.”
