ADDISON — The congregation of the Jehovah’s Witnesses in Addison has merged with a congregation in Jackson and is putting its Kingdom Hall up for sale.

Harlan Karmol from the Addison membership said in an email Friday that “mergers of congregations can make the best use of existing Kingdom Halls. Congregations that have merged such as ours, are experiencing higher quality meetings and a better distribution of Congregation members and support for them. As a result, some existing Kingdom Halls are no longer needed and are put up for sale.”

Karmol said the Addison congregation at 329 E. Main St. in Addison merged with the South Jackson membership on March 1, where they now meet at 1500 Park Dr. in Jackson.

“We do still meet at the Kingdom Hall ... in Addison several times during the week for field service,” Karmol said.

The Kingdom Hall on the east side of Addison was built in 1998 after the membership expanded from a former one-room school building a mile north of Addison. The 3,139-square-foot building is listed through a local real estate office for $180,000.
