THIRD QUARTER PROGRESS REPORT (JULY – SEPTEMBER, 2024)


INTRODUCTION

We thank the Lord for His unfailing love and help that He bestowed on us in the second quarter of this year. The quarter was filled with testimonies of God’s doings and we cannot stop thanking Him. He has been faithful to His word and we are greatly indebted to Him.


FIRST WOMEN CONFERENCE 2024

Having discovered the various family problems affecting some of the converts, which are motivated by cultural worldview, we are able to respond to this challenge by organizing the first Women Conference with the theme “THE VIRTUOUS WOMAN.” It was a timely and very impactful experience for the native women. They have requested for another edition to hold in February, 2025. Even the men in the village were really happy for such eye-opening.

Trinity Christian Academy

The school arm of the ministry, Trinity Christian Academy have resumed on the 15th September, 2024, for the 2024/2025 academic session. During the last holiday, the school premise was filled with over three hundred natives who were seeking admission for their wards. We were able to admit only forty, due to our limited facility. We would have taken more, because it is a great opportunity to win and disciple many souls for the Lord, both the children and their parents. Please pray along with us for provisions so that this vision may continue to find fulfilment. More of our ex-students will be graduating from the university this year. Please join us to pray for them for divine placement.

STAFF MEMBERS

Two of our missionaries, Bro. Solomon Sunday Ekene and Aunty Joy Odgirigho got married in the month of August in Benin city. Both of them served as corps members with the ministry in 2018, and have since then been working as full-time staff members. We appreciate all your support for them. We really appreciate God for His help for all our staff members, especially in the face of the ash economy in the nation. Thank you so much for all your support. Please pray for us that help may arise for us.

FOLLOW UP AND DISCIPLESHIP

Efforts towards discipling the native converts are still ongoing. Our missionaries have remained consistent in maintaining close contact with the native converts for follow-up. They are converts from the sport outreach and God has been helping them. We covet your prayers for their establishment in Christ.
