More than 9,000 Jehovah's Witnesses will meet in Gwinnett during the three-day district convention.

The convention, which begins on Friday, will be held at The Arena at Gwinnett Center. Subsequent conventions bringing an equal of participants will be held July 20 through July 22; Aug. 17 through Aug. 19; and Aug. 24 through Aug. 26.

The theme will be "Safeguard Your Heart" and will highlight biblical references to the heart. The program will encourage self-scrutiny and reflection.

The district includes North Georgia and parts of North and South Carolina.

Admission is free. The district conventions are supported entirely by voluntary donations.
