Why are the windows in a Kingdom Hall covered?
Jehovah's Witnesses use Kingdom Hals for worship. A church refers to the people who attend; it is not a building. Therefore, they do not cover their members.
During and after WW2, there was a lot of vandalism and backlash against Jehovahs Witnesses due to their neutrality regarding war. This resulted in damage to buildings and security issues for people attending. Today, safety glass is used on most Kingdom Halls. Window coverings are not required in such cases unless perhaps the heat of the sun creates uncomfortable conditions, which are not condusive to study, which is the purpose for the building. In such a situation, a moveable covering would be a simple, effective solution.

In the United States, kingdom halls of Jehovah's Witnesses are typically tax exempt as religious organizations under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. This exempts them from paying federal income tax on their income and donations. Each country may have specific regulations regarding tax exemption for religious organizations.

Every situation is different.
A person is considered a Jehovah's Witness when they are baptised. If an unbaptised person wants to separate themselves from the congregation, they simply stop coming to meetings. Of course, members of the congregation will, along with who ever has been conducting Bible studies with them, would be very concerned, and would visit them to see about their well-being. Sometimes a person gets discouraged, or there may be some hardship they are experiencing that the congregation can help them with. But as far as the organization's worldwide congregation records, officially that person was never fully integrated into the congregation. If later they want to start back again, they are welcome to begin attending meetings and studying the Bible again.
If a person who is baptised as a Jehovah's Witness wants to remove themselves, they submit a letter of intent to remove themselves from the congregation to the local congregation elders. The elders will meet with the person to make sure that this is what they want to do. The elders then inform the worldwide headquarters so that the records can be updated there, and the congregation is informed that this person is no longer a "brother or sister."
If the person is guilty of gross misconduct such as criminal behaviour, or something that the Bible condemns such as sexual immorality, and if the elders meet with this person to try to counsel them from the Bible to stop their sinful course, and if that person refuses to quit committing the offenses and show an unrepentant attitude, then the elders will remove that person by "disfellowshipping."
In either of these two cases, if later the person has a change of heart, and wants back into the congregation, they can submit a letter to the elders that they want to be reinstated to the congregation, and the elders will discuss with them the steps that they can take to rejoin the congregation.
Sometimes a Jehovah's Witness who is baptised doesn't actually leave the congregation under any of the above circumstances, but they simply become "inactive." They may stop coming to meetings and/or stop engaging in the public ministry. The congregation will be very concerned and the elders and congregation members will be very active in encouraging that person, and offering whatever assistance that they may need.
In all of these cases, there is no set time for this to occur.
It can come very quickly, or may happen gradually.
But if a baptised Jehovah's Witness doesn't actually get formally separated by a self-instigated action like a letter, or by the elders performing a "disfellowshipping" action, then that person is still considered a "brother or sister," even though they may be "inactive."

What Kingdom hall does Michael Jackson's children go to?
It shouldn't matter what Hall they go to. You should not become a JW just because Michael Jacksons Children are taught as JW's.Thats not how being a JW works. Like Jesus said He will start in his house first(The Kingdom Halls) and if you are not a JW for the right reasons...you will die like everyone else. Especially if you are pretending to be a JW, because not only are you lying to Jesus...Your lying to Jehovah. Being a JW takes a lot of hard work and dedication.Also I think your only excepted into the kingdom hall that is closest to you so that there won't be any over crowding and those who want to become JW's can and are able to go to the one nearest to them. Unless you know a Elder or Brother or Sister.
Why are there no windows in the Jehovah's Witnesses Kingdom Halls?
There are windows in thousands of Kingdom Halls of Jehovah's Witnesses. When there are no windows this will be to deter vandalism. The Awake magazine printed by Jehovah's Witnesses 22nd Aug '72 p23 says, ''The building is windowless as a safeguard against vandalism (a common feature of many city Kingdom Halls)''
It is also said that some did not have window built in to save money. The reasons were to reduce cost, simplify design, speed up construction, and to reduce the utilities needed to heat and cool the Hall.
However, in recent years the organization has begun including windows for the reason that we want people outside the Hall to see what's going on inside the Hall. So, those who are in charge of overseeing the building committees have decided that the benefits of windows outweigh the cost and design issues. So, on our newest Halls, we have been including windows in the auditorium in the US.
Worldwide, however, in some countries, it is impractical to include windows. In some areas, windows are much more expensive, and building skills on the part of the workers may be limited. Therefore, especially in developing countries, Jehovah's Witness Kingdom Halls may continue to exclude windows in the auditorium.
Approximately 700. For the exact figure contact the Service department of the Britain Branch of Jehovah's Witnesses (see link below)
