Public WitnessSign in
For congregations that organize public witnessing with carts

Help your publishers be ready at every cart.

Public Witness is a small website for your congregation. Every place you set up a cart gets a page of its own, and a publisher opens it right at the cart: directions, photos of where to park and where the cart goes, and the permission that covers the place. It is free, and publishers need nothing but their phone.

Permission, when it's neededIf the place needs permission, the page says so and links to it, so nobody has to ask around or guess.
How they get to that page
Scan the code on the cartEach cart carries a printed code. A publisher points their phone at it and the location's page opens. Nothing to install, no account.

What it asks of you

The brother who looks after the carts records each location once: a photo, the steps, a few details, and any permission. Each cart gets a printed code. When a cart moves, its code keeps working, and the site shows you what is still missing.

Before you decide
What it costsFree. No charge, no trial, no payment details.
Who can see itAnyone with the link can open a location's page, so record only what you are happy to have seen. Permission appears as a short summary, never the document itself.
What publishers needNothing. No app, no account, no password: they scan the code on the cart or open a link.
Who runs itNot an official site, and not connected with any Jehovah's Witnesses organisation.
Your informationYours. Change or remove a location, a photo, or the whole site whenever you like.
