I Will Not Celebrate My Daughter’s Birthday, We Are Jehovah’s Witnesses - Serena by Kingsmeal: 2:13pm On Aug 28, 2018 |
Serena Williams' daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian turns 1 this week but her mother will not celebrate her birthday. The tennis legend has confirmed that she will not be celebrating her baby girl’s first birthday, due to her beliefs as a Jehovah’s Witness. She made this known while speaking at a press conference at the US Open. A reporter asked Serena: "Is there a birthday party planned?" And Serena replied: "Olympia doesn’t celebrate birthdays. We’re Jehovah’s Witnesses, so we don’t do that." Though Serena’s husband, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, did not grow up in a religious household, it is believed that he is now practicing with his wife. Speaking to Vogue last year, Serena said: "Being a Jehovah’s Witness is important to me, but I’ve never really practised it and have been wanting to get into it. Alexis didn’t grow up going to any church, but he’s really receptive and even takes the lead. He puts my needs first."

Zoom in the picture. Can you see me peeping through that tiny crack on the floor just by the right wall, a few inches behind the pram? Don't even ask me what I'm doing there... 12 Likes 2 Shares |

One thing about having a JW background is that whether you are fully practicing it or not, you find it difficult conforming with the world's standards 54 Likes 4 Shares |

Teacher1776: My roomate at the university was a JW, every Sunday going to Kingdom Hall and arguing with me about 144,000 who will enter Heaven and how the youngest was then 55 years? But he was a thief. One day he with other people stole a goat and slaughtered. He was frying the meat in the middle of the night. World standards my foot. 12 Likes |
