In its own words
We are thanking Almighty God for having enabled us to pay off our Condo Fees arrears which was created during the COVID-19 pandemic years 2020 and 2021. Divine worship services are now in session every Sunday morning without any time restraints. This is open to the community at large. During the year we provided prayer meetings fasting services and Sunday School sessions. Bible Study activity is done for the most part presently in our Sunday School and at prayer meeting. The Ladies' Department continue to provide vital support for the organization and likewise the Hospitality ministry. …
