Liberation Church empowers 150 youths
The General Overseer
of the Mountain of Liberation and Miracle Ministries, Dr Chris Okafor has
reaffirmed its commitment towards the empowerment of more Nigerians through the
Chris Okafor Humanitarian Foundation Initiatives.
While distributing
cash gifts of N50, 000 to each of the 150 graduates of the skills acquisition
programme organised by the Foundation, Dr. Okafor said “The Lord helped the
Foundation to pursue and achieve various goals, win more souls for God’s kingdom
within and outside the country, organise several life-changing programmes,
empower youths through our diverse initiatives and also become worthy
ambassadors of Christ.”
He said the
empowerment was to reduce the number of worshippers coming to ask for welfare
from the church as well as for them to be self-reliant. “The Liberation skills
acquisition programme is to ensure that as we are not only preaching to people
to be born again, we also want to impact their lives positively by empowering
them to do something for themselves.
“In most cases people
come to the church for alms, food and help in one way or the other, but giving
them something to make money for themselves will reduce that.
Dr. Okafor expressed
optimism that the empowered worshipers would prosper and make profits in their
respective businesses. He added that with their hard work, the worshipers were
expected to return with good reports and how successful they would be.
He urged the
beneficiaries to put their efforts into whatever they were to do and as well
pass on to others the empowerment skill they had received.
The Church also gave
out 13 cars to some deserving members of the church at the event.
