Jehovah’s Witnesses Invite Lagos Residents to Two Special Events in April

Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide are preparing for what will be the most significant day of the year—Saturday, April 12, 2025. 

On this day, which corresponds to Nisan 14 of the Jewish calendar, they will commemorate the Memorial of Jesus Christ’s death, an observance rooted in Jesus’ words recorded at Luke 22:19: “Keep doing this in remembrance of me.”

“While there are more than 9 million Jehovah’s Witnesses globally, over 21 million people attended the Memorial last year,” said Olusegun Eroyemi, spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses. “We warmly invite our local community to join us in reflecting on the profound significance of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice.”

The Memorial will include a Bible-based talk highlighting the importance of Jesus’ death and its benefits for all mankind. The event, which lasts approximately one hour, is free and open to the public.

In the lead-up to the Memorial, Jehovah’s Witnesses will also host a special public talk titled “Can Truth Be Found?” on the weekend of April 5 and 6. This 30-minute Bible discourse will explore Jesus’ teachings about truth in an era of widespread misinformation. Following the talk, a one-hour discussion of a scriptural topic will take place, encouraging audience participation.

Throughout Lagos, Jehovah’s Witnesses will be conducting a month-long invitation campaign to ensure as many residents as possible are aware of these events.

“The purpose of this campaign is to extend a warm invitation to our neighbours,” Eroyemi added. “Anyone interested in learning more about Bible truths and showing appreciation for Jesus Christ’s death and sacrifice is welcome to attend.”
