Press Release.
Warri, Delta State – Peace Aghanti who dwells in Warri, often wondered where she could find practical advice for the struggles of daily life. The answer came from an unlikely source.
The Warri City resident found clear solutions in the Scriptures through a free Bible course provided by Jehovah’s witnesses. Today, Peace will be among the more than eight million volunteers worldwide who will participate in a global campaign in September to extend the same offer to community members.
“It was a pleasant surprise to learn how the Bible provides simple yet profound truths that have improved my life”, said Peace. “I can’t wait to share this with others.”
The witnesses organize yearly special campaigns to raise awareness of how the Scriptures address the concerns of the public. “We received many positive experiences from the special campaign we had in September 2022, which focussed on Bible study”, said Humphrey Eziaroma, a local spokesperson for the non profit organization. “We want to build on that positive feedback and keep the door open to our community to learn about the answers found in the Bible.”
An interactive and concise three-lesson brochure titled “Enjoy Life Forever!” is included in the campaign and explains what the Bible teaches on these subjects:
*How can the Bible help you?
*The Bible gives hope for the future.
*Can you trust the Bible?
“Participating in this Bible study course does not obligate a person to become one of Jehovah’s witnesses”, says Eziaroma. “We are pleased just to present what the Bible teaches so that people can benefit from this rich source of wisdom and guidance.”
The course comes with an extended learning option that details how to apply time-tested Bible-based advice in making good decisions, building lasting friendship and cultivating a happy family life.
Anyone who is interested can meet with an instructor either in person or virtually and at a time convenient for the individual. In 2023, the witnesses conducted an average of more than seven million Bible studies each month in some 240 lands.
Peace Aghanti is thankful to be among the seven million. She said, “What I learned during my Bible study has made me so happy and changed my life for the better. I am confident that it will do the same for others who just give it a try.”
