Service Days are Set! July 29 & 30, 2026

The FSC (Field Service Commitee) has received the official dates of our 2 service days with the international delegates. Wednesday July 29th and Thursday the 30th. We are so excited to have our dates set and can now move forward with the plans.

This also is providing a new opportunity to see Jehovah's hand in making these arrangements. There is a huge call out to all, as we will need the help of you brothers and sisters to make it a success.

How can you help? Please continue to petition Jehovah through prayer to make these plans a success. When Jehovah wants something to be accomplished "nothing is impossible for you", and He will help make any needed adjustments for our 2 service days to succeed. (Matt 17:20)

We will also need as many as possible to make themselves available to help with the Thursday Night clean up so that all can get home early and prepare for the Convention the following day. Many hands make for light work and we need as many as we can get.

Thank you in advance from the entire committee for your help, prayers and willing spirit!

Have you filled out your Surveys?

It was announced at the meeting on Wednesday March 4, 2026, that the commitee wants all to fill out the surveys by the end of March. This will allow the committee to finalize plans for our special Service Day and the activities we will enjoy throughout. Thank you in advance for all your help and assistance on this special day!

The Strathmore Welcome Video

This video was created for the delegates as a welcome video. It is currently on the delegates page.

The video was personally filmed by a brother in the Strathmore congregation. It captures the many different terrain, styles, and cultural feel of the Strathmore territory.

The audio itself is a cover of the original song "Our Joy of Conventions" that was played entirely by a member from the congregation.

Camping at Lyalta

Some friend's will be helping with overnight needs at our venue, but others may want to join the fun and camp at the venue. If you are interested in camping, or in need of a site to fullfill your assignments for our special event, please contact Al Lakatos so he can look after assigning sites and see the needs of the friends.

IC-FSD Meeting Part

Feb 25, 2026 - A few brothers from the IC-FSD (International Convention - Field Service Day) were interviewed and were able to share details, experiences, and the current progress/planning for the Strathmore Field Service Day(s). Details regarding this website, the planned activites, and survey forms were shared. The congregation had the opportunity to ask questions that they had at the time.

Some friends were also in the foyer of the kingdom hall having a share in live music as they welcomed ones entering for the meeting.

Meeting Welcome

First Practice Session

Feb 15, 2026 - We had a good turn out and many stayed to practice the first of many songs we will sing to our delegates. Thank you all for the energy and beautiful voices!

Field Ministry

A wonderful part we play in Jehovah's Kingdom is telling others about that Good News.

Each country is a little different with the culture of people and territories they have. Many who are coming may have never worked country territory like we have in the Prairies. Others may never have done Public Witnessing, or even "House to House". Can you make yourself available to take a delegate in the field ministry? The memories you make with your assigned delegate will stretch beyond timezones and borders, and the friendship you establish will be a huge highlight, not just for the delegates, but yourself as well. These will be memories that will last through this system and beyond.

Sing Praises to Jehovah

It was announced at our Weeknight meeting on Feb 11, 2026 that we will be practicing some songs after the Meetings on Sundays in order to prepare for welcoming the delegates. Why is this so important?

Music is a wonderful gift from Jehovah. James 5:1 reminds us "Is there anyone in good spirits? Let him sing psalms". This is a joyous occasion worth of song, would you not agree?!

Imagine the welcome of music when arriving somewhere from far away. It warms your heart, it makes the long journey worth it, it makes you feel like you belong! These delegates will be so happy to see all of us, young and old, joyously singing with loud voices to welcome them.

Remember too, you will not be alone, we will all be united in song, supporting one another, and like any preparation, practice makes perfect.... and helps with those nerves!

Planning is Under Way

We are so excited to see what our International Field Service Day will look like soon!

Plans for the activities are well on their way and excitement is being built up with suprise welcomes at the meetings in the week ahead until the Convention, make sure to be there and join in the fun!

What can you do to join and have a part? Stay tuned!
