from house to house, they make back-calls, they<br />

conduct Bible studies in the homes of the people<br />

and they gather other sheep into the congregation<br />

of Jehovah. The New World society, as we see it<br />

operating under seventy-five branches throughout<br />

the world, is proof of the individuals' ministry. Jehovah's<br />

witnesses can show that they, too, "did<br />

not hold back from telling you any of the things<br />

that were profitable nor from teaching you publicly<br />

and from house to house." (Acts 20:20, NW)<br />

Just as the apostles in days gone by did, so even<br />

now "every day in the temple and from house to<br />

house they continued without letup teaching and<br />

declaring the good news about the Christ, Jesus."<br />

-Acts 5: 42, NW.<br />

Jehovah's witnesses are a society of ministers<br />

and servants of God who walk in the footsteps of<br />

Christ Jesus. They rejoice in the great privilege<br />

of service that is theirs. In order to assist all the<br />

hundreds of thousands of ministers now making<br />

up the New World society, from among this great<br />

group the Society appoints special servants, who<br />

serve as branch servants, district servants, circuit<br />

servants, members of Bethel families in branch<br />

offices, or in some special capacity in some missionary<br />

field. With these special privileges of service<br />

come greater responsibilities of leadership, zeal<br />

and setting the proper example as Christians. The<br />

Society is pleased to set out here this list of<br />

servants assigned to special duties.<br />
