At the colourful and well attended event, held at the Headquarters of the Holy Ghost Power Assembly Worldwide, Mathew Ajala Street, Ogo-Oluwa Osogbo the Osun State capital, Bishop Olubadejo said: “Depression has become a global epidemic and if one is not careful, the challenges of life, even in the holy order, can make a person forget that God is good”.
The Bishop, who observed that many successful people forget that all they have is through God’s grace, charged everyone to always remember the Rock from which man was healed and restored.
The General Overseer of the Church said, “the importance of giving thanks to God is not about the money spent on the occasion or pageantry, but a time to dance and sing before Him in worship and Thanksgiving”.
Bishop Olubadejo admonished all to emulate the celebrant, Mrs Felicia Farombi and her entire family.
While speaking, the Chairman of the ceremony, Elder Monshood Oladejo (MAO) congratulated the celebrant and her family urging her not to relent in doing good while she must continue to worship God in the remaining years of her life.
