Can Jehovah Witnesses attend funerals and weddings in a church or be part of the wedding party?
Sandyj99
=== === Yes. In fact they can attend church to go to another person's funeral or wedding if they so wish. It is just a matter for personal conscience, as long as the person is only attending church just for the wedding or funeral.
