=== Hierarchy === The church is controlled by a small group of senior male overseers with each having oversight of a specific geographic region. Under each senior overseer are male head workers who have oversight of a single state, province or similar area, depending on the country.<ref>See: * {{harvnb|Chryssides|2001b|pp=330β331}}; * {{harvnb|Johnson|1995|pp=44β52}}; * {{harvnb|Lewis|1998|p=494}}; * {{harvnb|Robinson|2009}}.</ref> These head workers handle the two-by-two pairing and field assignments of workers for that area. Each pair of workers has charge over several local meetings with the senior worker of the two having authority over his junior. Local meetings are hosted in the homes of elders who report to the workers. Correspondence such as reporting, finances, and instructions are often communicated according to the set hierarchy.{{sfn|Daniel|1993|pp=11β16}} The administration of the church and its annual process of assigning of workers to fields are rarely discussed among the membership.{{sfn|Johnson|1995|p=43}} Workers are believed to be holy conduits of God and are regarded highly by the congregation.
