The annual three-day convention for Jehovah's Witnesses takes place at the Sudbury Arena starting this Friday.

The religious group will discuss “the keys to family happiness” during their 2015 “Imitate Jesus!” Convention.

“The Witnesses’ three-day convention series will demonstrate how Jesus’ example can give parents and children the tools to build stronger and more united families,” a press release said.

“The program will also include a stimulating examination of Jesus’ famed Sermon on the Mount. Wayne Holroyd, a spokesman for the convention program, explains: 'Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount offers timeless advice that can help parents to better use their time and resources to build a more secure and loving family environment.'”

Admission to the convention is free, although donations are welcomed.
