The Archbishop Ecclesiastical Province of the Niger, Most Reverend Alexander Ibezim has encouraged mothers to be strong in the face of difficulties as God will empower them to do more exploits.

 

Most Reverend Ibezim who stated this at the Anglican Church of the Pentecost Government House, Awka during the 2022 Awka Central Archdeaconry Women Conference with the theme “Be Strong in the Lord and in the Power of His Might” said that God is able to change any situation of life to a positive perspective.

Most Reverend Ibezim who is also the Bishop, Diocese of Awka, asked the women to erect private altar where they will build intimacy, renew relationship and abound in the work of the lord as God will stand with them at all times even as he asked them to have a strong and deep relationship with God.

 

The President, Mother’s Union, Women’s Guild and Girls’Guild, Province of The Niger and Awka Diocese, Mrs Martha Ibezim noted that today’s society is filled with uncertainties and fear of the unknown but said, God is their strength and his words and promises remain their watchdog and pillar.

Earlier in a sermon to mark the maiden Awka Central Archdeaconry Women Conference, the Archdeacon of the Archdeaconry and Vicar of Anglican Church of The Pentecost, Venerable Kenechukwu Nwafor stated that for them to be strong in the Lord, they must have authority which is to commune, putting on the amour of salvation, righteousness, truth and deepen their devotion in Christ.

 

In her address, the Vice President, Women’s Ministry, Awka Central Archdeaconry, Mrs Chinwe Nwafor, maintained that the theme of the conference encouraged them to continue with God’s words and its directives as well as pray without seizing, be obedient to the principles of God’s word and submit totally to God.

 

The women later installed the pioneer Awka Central Archdeaconry conference mother, Lady Louisa Muogilim who thanked God for using the women as an instrument to propagate God’s gospel and pillar in every home.

 

Lady Oge Okafor adopted the Vice President’s address to be used as a document in the Archdeaconry while the chairman, planning committee, Chief Pandolla Okwuosa and team extolled Most Reverend Ibezim for raising them to the status of Archdeaconry stating that they will keep the flag flying and ensure they take the message of Christ to the nook and cranny of the Archdeaconry.

Cutting of conference cake, prayer sessions, presentations and special dance by the women climaxed the conference.
