Are Venus and Serena Williams Jehovah's Witnesses?

Question

I've heard some say they are, and some that say they aren't. Does anyone know of a website or something that says if they are or aren't? Thanks!

In an interview a few days before this question (on August 24, 2007), Serena Williams claims that she never lapsed from being a Jehovah's Witness.

An interview a few months ago claims that all the Williams siblings "remain devoted" to the Jehovah's Witness faith.

All the Williams girls were brought up as Jehovah's Witnesses and all of them, [Serena] tells me, remain devoted to their faith. (Serena even goes door to door when she has time.) Not only that, but their best friends are Witnesses too.

Answer 6

They COULDN"T be...they sing the "National Anthem"..

OOps the Governing body gave them one of those "get out of disfellowshipping free" Cards, so they are safe.

Answer 7

I don't know how devout they are about it but both Venus and Serena have often been known to thank "my god Jehovah" among other individuals after they have won a big tournament. I'd say that makes them Jehovah's witnesses.

Answer 8

Hopefully they are not

Answer 9

Yes they are Jehovah's Witnesses. They might not be intervewed in the Watchtower anytime soon but so what. They have a good life and they do good things for people.

JWs have really high standards, or there'd propaply be twice as many members. Some things get you disfellowshipped, but most are just frowned at, like going to clubs and wearing worldly clothes.

I went to a JW convention and some anti-JWs were there with bullhorns to make trouble and they were yelling at some JW girls with short skirts for being whores. It was hard not to laugh because JW girls are chaste and these three did not look like whores. They were bright red from embarrassment, and tried to run in their high heels. The point is that thier skirts were too short for Kingdom Hall but they were young and looked good and good looking girls want to show off. They don't get disfellowshpped for wearing short skirts.

The Williams girls look good, and they dress like young girls who know they look good. That might not be a great witness, but the Williams are a mllion times better than Britney Spears and Lindsy Lohan and these other foolish worldly girls.
