The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor E. A. Adeboye has commended the congregation of RCCG City of Light Parish for the completion of their new ultra-modern parish.
Adeboye gave the commendation during his dedication of the Church Auditorium on Sunday March 10 at Festac Town, Lagos.
In his message, titled ‘Divine Visitation’, the clergyman emphasized on the need for everyone to come to the house of the Lord. He gave instances of people whom God visited and also shared how he encountered God of salvation while visiting the house of the Lord. He urged everyone who hasn’t given their life to Christ to do so.
The General Overseer, while congratulating the City of Light declared that the building was cute.
“As the English man has a word for something beautiful and not too big in size, they call it cute. This building is cute, congratulations. Cute building, cute choir.”
Pastor in-charge of Lagos Province 3, Pastor Toyin Olugbemi expressed his joy upon seeing Daddy and Mummy G.O.
He Noted “Daddy and Mummy, exactly Seven Hundred and Fourteen days in the month of March, two years ago you came to Lagos Province 3 Festac Town. And today you are here again, and I know in the next two years daddy will be here.”
In his speech, the Pastor in Charge, Sunday Avoseh who is also the Assistant Pastor in-Charge of Lagos Province 3, said the completion of the building was Daddy G.O answered prayers.
“Daddy I am overwhelmed and you can see it in the congregation. Daddy all I can say is this is your answered prayers because from the very day we started the piling to the foundation, periodically we kept writing you coveting your prayers and God answered.”
Pastor Avoseh while thanking the General overseer for his tremendous impartation upon them noted that it is exactly 2 years and 3 months the project was completed and 95 percent of the funds came from the congregation.
In his words “Exactly two years and three months this project is completed, completed without any credit facility from any financial institution, completed with also ninety-five percent of the fund from the members of the congregation. Daddy, this is the Lord’s doing and it is marvelous in our sight.”
It was indeed a day of excitement and double blessings as the people of RCCG; City of Light received his General Overseer and his beautiful wife Pastor (Mrs.) Folu Adeboye.
