2010 Statistics of the Religious Work of Jehovah’s Witnesses in the Philippines

Here’s the latest statistics of Jehovah’s Witnesses religious activities in the Philippines as reflected in their website. These figures are for the year 2010 and are taken from their website except for the fourth column (RATIO). I added this column just to have a picture of the percentage of contribution of the Jehovah’s Witnesses in the Philippines to the worldwide work.

Grand Total: 236 lands/territories all over the world

Notes:

1. Obviously, there is a difference between a peak Witness and a baptized member of the religious organization. There are 171,910 Peak Witnesses for 2010 and the ratio of Jehovah’s Witnesses to the Philippine population is 541. With simple arithmetic, one could calculate that the Philippine population for 2010 is 93,003,310.

2. All indicators reflect that the contribution of Jehovah’s Witnesses in the Philippines to the worldwide work is between 2% and 3%.     

 3. Jehovah’s Witnesses are really serious with the number of hours they contribute in preaching the Word of God in their local congregations known as the Kingdom Halls of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
