Since 2018, the Jehovah's Witnesses' leaders from the World Headquarters in New York have been issuing Announcements & Reminders to Congregations. This includes instructions for elders' eyes only. We make the instructions available to all.
The Watch Tower, the organization behind Jehovah's Witnesses, has issued various textbooks that are intended to be kept secret from the ordinary members, especially women. All Jehovah's Witnesses should have access to these publications.
Prior to the issuance of Announcements & Reminders, letters were issued with the relevant letterhead from the branch that issued the letter. Most of these were for elders' eyes only. We have collected hundreds of these letters for you to read.
Locate and download documents relating to assemblies & conventions, blood & medicine, branch procedures, child sexual abuse, child custody, circuit overseers & elders, donations, pioneers & special pioneers, volunteering and much more.

LimeCulture has launched a resource for Independent Sexual Violence Advisers (ISVAs) as part of the National ISVA Co-ordinator (NISVAC) Service pilot in the United Kingdom.
The NISVAC Service has been working in partnership with advocates from the Jehovah’s Witnesses Community (including former members) to develop a new resource to support ISVAs to better understand the unique barriers Jehovah’s Witnesses may face in engaging with support and to consider how ISVA services can be adapted to support these clients. This resource for ISVAs is – and will continue to be – freely available for use by ISVAs.
