A congress of Jehovah's Witnesses was held in Ufa

On November 15, the congress of Jehovah's Witnesses ended in Ufa, in which about two thousand people from different regions of Bashkortostan took part.

The main issue discussed at the congress was the organization of missionary work in the republic, including in the Tatar and Bashkir languages.

The congress was planned to be held in one day, but due to difficulties with renting a room of the required capacity, the congress stretched out for two weeks: the participants had to be divided into groups of 450-500 people, renting a separate room for each group.

In the summer, similar congresses were held in several Russian regions.
