All roads will lead to Central School field, Ekwulobia, tomorrow November 30 for the “Worship and Word Conference, 2022” of the Diocese of Aguata, Anglican Communion. The three day conference, which begins at 3pm is part of activities lined up by the Diocese to make the faithful be in constant touch with their creator. The conference is divided into Morning session which commences at 8am and evening sessions by 3pm.
Its theme, “THE GRACE OF TRANSFORMATION”, taken from 1st Samuel chapter 22, verses 1 to 2, is apt in order to make the faithful turn to God and seek Him, for total transformation as true children of God.
So, as we converge on Ekwulobia tomorrow for the worship and word conference, which a full campaign programme, we should bear in mind that God wants us to seek His face. Through the conference, we can learn a lot about God. This is the essence of the Worship and Word Conference, which Bishop Samuel Ezeofor has packaged for his flock.
The fiesta which is fifth in its series is non denominational. Members of the Anglican Church and those from other denominations will participate in the Worship and Word Conference, which will be presided over by the Bishop of Aguata Diocese, Right Reverend Samuel Chukwudi Ezeofor (JP), Ph.D, Ambassador of Peace and National Chairman, Evangelical Fellowship in the Anglican Communion (EFAC) Nigeria. He will be assisted by other Ministers of God.
Accommodation has been provided for all those that will attend the conference, just as feeding and transportation will also be provided. This is the third time the conference is taking place in the Diocese. Those who attended the first and last editions are still testifying of their spiritual serenity. The conference has both morning and afternoon sessions.
Bishop Ezeofor is using the Worship and Word Conference to commit the spiritual resources of the church to nation building and accelerate the attainment of a developed Nigeria. He has been tackling this through prayers, messages, trainings, healthcare, social work, advocacy and mobilization. Unfortunately, Nigerians are weak in praying for their nation.
Prayers for Nigeria, like what Bishop Ezeofor is doing, should be given pre-eminence and be done consistently. The church should specifically pray for family, political, traditional and religious leadership as well as for the education system and the unity of the country.
Those who attain prominence in the Bible used prayer to be in constant contact with God. Abraham, Moses, Jesus Christ among others, had always relied on prayers for God’s intervention in their problems.
Other features of the conference apart from prayers will include salvation, healing, Bible study, deliverance and marriage counseling.
It is unfortunate that many youths have gone into idolatry to boost their businesses, only to regret later. This is a golden opportunity for such lost souls to embrace God and receive their salvation.
In these challenging times, it is important that we continue to seek God’s guidance and support in all our undertakings.
This is indeed a good time, the right way to pray for Nigeria, in view of the numerous challenges facing the country especially, as it prepares for the 2023 general election. Prayer, like the Worship and Word Conference, must be an important part of nation building because, as the Bible tells us, without His help, we, as builders, would be labouring in vain.
2022 Worship and Word Conference of Aguata Diocese, is here with us don’t be a passenger!
