Jehovah's Witnesses by country

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jehovah's Witnesses have an active presence in most countries. These are the most recent statistics by continent, based on active members, or "publishers" as reported by the Watch Tower Society.[1] The Watch Tower Society provides 'average' and 'peak' figures for the number of active members. The 'peak' figure refers to the highest number of reports for any month, including late reports from the previous month; this results in some members being counted twice for the 'peak' figure.[2][3]

Bible study figures indicate the average number of Bible studies conducted each month by Jehovah's Witness members with non-members. This includes studies conducted by Jehovah's Witness parents with their unbaptized children,[4][5] which can be counted as one hour per week and one Bible study per month, per child.[6]
