A Lagos-based Church, God First Ministry, is set to mark its 36th founding anniversary celebration with a charity programme and a thanksgiving service.
According to the Founder, Archbishop-Designate Isaac Idahosa, who was also the New Nigeria People’s Party NNPP Vice Presidential candidate to Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso in the 2023 Presidential election, said the two-day anniversary is scheduled to take place at the Church premises located at New Dawn Centre, opposite White House, Gedegede, Ikota First Gate Bus Stop, Lekki.
The series of events is scheduled to take place between August 29th and 31st, 2025. It is expected to start with the charity programme on Friday at 11 a.m. at the church premises, while the Thanksgiving service is scheduled to be held on Sunday, the 31st, at the same venue.
Commenting on the journey so far, Archbishop Idahosa said, “We have come a long way as a piece in the Body of Christ in the last 36 years since we have been working in the Lord’s vineyard, and we have a lot to be thankful for.
“This is why we have decided to reach out to the less privileged in society through the charity programme we have carefully planned to see how we can contribute our quota to ameliorating their sufferings by reaching out to them as a body of Christ.
“This is in keeping with the gospel of our Lord Jesus Chirst who has enjoined us in the Book of Mathew 19: 21 and Mathew 25:40 and the book of Luke 14: 13 which enjoins all believers to reach out to the poor, and this is what we have been doing in the last three decades and its what we’re known for,” he said.
