Soul Makers Ministry Set For ‘Heart’s Day’ Celebration

The Soul Makers Ministry worldwide is set to celebrate this year’s Heart’s Day, called “Odun Okan” or “Odun Ibori” or “Odun Ori” or “Odun Ori Ire” or “Odun Alafia Ara” in Yoruba language.

A statement by the ministry’s spiritual leader, Chief Owolabi Salis, noted that the celebration which is determined by the lunar calendar and sighting of the moon, will be celebrated between Sunday, June 16 and Wednesday of next week.

Salis enjoined individuals to earmark that festival for special prayers to their creator, adding that, “During the festival or celebration, you will offer prayers to The Soul Maker, the Lord Almighty, to bless your hearts and other organs of your body and for a good head. You should also offer thanksgiving to The Soul Maker, the Creator of the universe, for physical and spiritual guidance and stability.”

The spiritual leader said the ministry abhors genuflecting before stone, woods, idols or man, noting that doing so could make one’s soul a victim of what he or she worships. According to him, one of its cardinal objectives is to replenish the earth through love and power of regeneration, which is enshrined in the Soul Maker alone.

“This is our planet Earth. Everything on this planet Earth grows. For a tree to bear fruits, you have to water the roots. If you need spiritual wisdom, you need to water your roots and you do so by paying obeisance to your roots. Whoever disregards his roots will hardly develop,” he added.

Salis said the ministry does not join other sects to address the creator of the universe as ‘God’, or ‘Lord ‘ as common in other religious sects but rather the Creator or Soul Maker, which is believed to be reflective and ubiquitous in every tribe and culture globally. He stressed that the ministry subscribes to three key basis-of one’s soul, one’s parents and one’s ancestors which it likens as first, second and third roots respectively, urging every worshipper to pay obeisance to them.

The celebration is meant for all living beings that have a soul and a heart to appreciate their Creator. “These days coincidentally fall around the time of the Muslim Ram festival but the Heart’s Day Celebration is different from the Muslim Ram festival. The next festival will be minus 11 days in 2025 and so on,” he explained.

“During the festive celebration, you will offer prayers to The Soul Maker, the Almighty Lord of the Universe, to bless your hearts and other organs of your body and for a good head. You should also offer thanksgiving to The Soul Maker, the Creator of the Universe, for physical and spiritual guidance and stability. This is the time you pray for a good heart and other organs of the body and pray for a good head,” he instructed.

Explaining further, he said, “The Soul Maker is the Lord of diversity. The Soul Maker Ministry teaching is natural and is meant to recover devotees from stories of men. The teaching is that your creator, The Soul Maker, is the owner of your soul represented by the star, and that soul lives in your heart, and that is what you see in the Start-Heart and Heart-Star symbol. It teaches that when you worship a thing, you are submitting your soul to that thing. It teaches that the only person to worship is the maker and owner of your soul, which in this case is your first root, your creator, the The Soul Maker.

“You also gain blessings by asking others to do the same. You should not only share this message but also preach it to others for greater blessings. When you genuinely preach the path of blessings to others, you gain spiritual freedom. The more you do, the better the blessings.”
