"Based on the available information, Serena Williams has been open about her connection to Jehovah’s Witnesses (JWs)."
Here are some key points:
- Family background: Serena and her sister Venus were raised in the faith by their mother, Oracene Price, who is a baptized Jehovah’s Witness.
- Public statements: Serena has mentioned her Jehovah’s Witness faith in various interviews, stating that it’s important to her, but she hasn’t always practiced it consistently.
- Baptism: There are conflicting reports about Serena’s baptism status. Some sources suggest she was baptized in 2022 or 2023, while others claim she wasn’t baptized until recently (as of 2023). The exact date and circumstances of her baptism are unclear.
- Faith practices: As a Jehovah’s Witness, Serena and her family do not observe traditional Christian holidays like Easter, Christmas, or birthdays, which are considered "pagan in nature".
