  SHOW LOW - The local congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses invite the community and their new neighbors to an open house of the newly-built Kingdom Hall Saturday, Feb. 24, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

  The Kingdom Hall, the name Jehovah's Witnesses use for their meeting places, is located at 201 E. Whipple Drive in Show Low.
  After laying the foundation, the 5,000-sq. ft. site-built structure was built during one weekend in mid-August with additional exterior and interior work finished in the following weeks. The "quick build" drew a record 322 volunteers from the Valley and several northern Arizona communities.
  The hall has a seating capacity of 275, two meeting rooms and an office. It houses two congregations for meetings in English and Spanish.
  The volunteers offered their services and skills in plumbing, electricity, framing, landscaping, etc., at no cost. Although some volunteers were professional tradesmen, most acquired their construction skills by volunteering at previous Kingdom Hall builds.

  I wonder if there will be a cake or maybe snacks? lisa

  Makes you wonder how well their "skills" are!! Maybe Mr. Wolfe from "3 Little Pigs" can go "blow the house down"!!!

  It always makes me shiver whenever I hear of a new KH because I remember when they built the new one in our domain , you could rest assured every time the mortgage was due or some bills they would get all demanding and insulting over it . Yah they are excited to have something new but the WTBTS is not excited to pay for any of it . They can't seem to get anything right in this cult , one minute it's we need money the next minute it's you are missing meetings (probly cause they went and got a second job) you are not a good dubby , yah gee you never know when that next blinding flash of light comes from the top .GaG .

  Yah , looks like they are still planning for a huge increase when false religion gets demolished . Something they did predict last year. Of course they are still waiting for it to happen.
