Serving Where the Need Is Great

Move your life to where it makes the biggest difference

About This Decision

Serving where the need is great means relocating — often to a rural congregation, a developing territory, or an area with few qualified brothers — to provide spiritual support where it's most needed. It's one of the most life-changing decisions a publisher or pioneer can make, and the blessings are remarkable.

Brothers who move to congregations that lack elders or ministerial servants find that their presence makes an immediate, visible difference. Sisters who move to small congregations often become pillars of encouragement and support for the entire local community of worshippers. The need is real, and so is the reward.

What to Expect at the Booth

  • Hear stories from brothers and sisters who made the move and never looked back
  • Learn how to identify congregations with the greatest need in your area
  • Get practical advice on how to research, prepare, and make the transition
  • Understand what to consider before making this decision as a family
  • Leave with a map and resources to explore opportunities near you

Who This Is For

Any publisher — single, married, young, or older — who is open to relocating to serve Jehovah's people more fully. This doesn't require moving to another country (though it can!). Sometimes the congregation with the greatest need is just an hour away. Come find out what's possible.
