Jehovah's Witnesses by country

Last updated

Jehovah's Witnesses have an active presence in most countries. These are the most recent statistics by continent, based on active members, or "publishers" as reported by the Watch Tower Society. [1] The Watch Tower Society provides 'average' and 'peak' figures for the number of active members. The 'peak' figure refers to the highest number of reports for any month, including late reports from the previous month; this results in some members being counted twice for the 'peak' figure. [2] [3]

Contents

Bible study figures indicate the average number of Bible studies conducted each month by Jehovah's Witness members with non-members. This includes studies conducted by Jehovah's Witness parents with their unbaptized children, [4] [5] which can be counted as one Bible study per month, per child. [6]

The Watch Tower Society reports its activity in various dependencies and constituent states as separate 'lands', as noted.

Earth and Planetary Science Letters. 381: 177–187. doi:10.1016/j.epsl.2013.08.051. A comparison of the GPS velocities of Pico, Faial, S. Jorge and Terceira islands with the Nubia–Eurasia velocity in the Azores region (ca. 4.5 mm/yr, DeMets et al., 2010) shows that the islands belong to neither the Eurasia nor Nubia plates.{{cite journal}}: CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (link)
