Speaking at a press conference in Lagos, the Special Assistant to the General Overseer in charge of Missions and the Pastor-in-charge of Region 19, Pastor Brown Oyitso, said the event was to mark the 30th anniversary of the First Born Family.
The Regional Pastor stated that the General Overseer, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, is expected to speak on the topic, “From Glory to Glory”, at this year’s Power Conference.
He emphasised that the First Born Family was born with a vision to pursue mission work aggressively, both local and international, in accordance to the vision of the General Overseer.
“When Pastor Adeboye was made General Overseer of the church, he received the vision to start a model parish which was meant to reach out to young and upwardly model professionals.
“The initial church at Ladipo Oluwole in Ikeja grew to over 1,000 parishes within one year, despite the initial teething challenges faced, just like any other human organisation and we waxed stronger. Today, the single young church has grown into a network of over 2,500 churches within Nigeria with 15 provinces and many more are still being planted,” he stated.
Oyitso said the annual event was a way of celebrating God’s faithfulness and thanking Him in order for them to be blessed in the coming year.
“Last year, the theme was “Turning Point” and undoubtedly, God has turned things around in the lives, businesses, ministries and families within the First Born Family. We believe it is now time to go from “Glory to Glory” That is why the theme for this year’s anniversary was divinely chosen,” Pastor Oyitso said.
He added that arrangement has been made to transport participants from different points in Lagos free of charge to the venue, with the provision of free food.
The General Overseer, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, is expected to minister to thousands of souls at Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos, tomorrow.
