First look: Inside the new Montrose Kingdom Hall, which serves three congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses
Sterling Linzer could hardly wait to step inside the new Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses on Harold Street in Houston. When the 3,300-square foot space finally opened for the first Sunday gathering last month, he was speechless.
Women and men of all ages work side-by-side on the project. “And more experienced ones teach those younger or less experienced,” he said.Safety was a top priority on the site, Linzer said.“They all come together to build the Kingdom Hall,” he said. “Everyone was so joyful. They put the time and effort in to do all they could. Then, they’d come the next day and start all over again. You just don’t see that very much.
The project has been a conversation starter. “We had a lot of individuals passing by in their cars and slowing down almost to a stop,” he said.
