He warned that just as ministers of the gospel were often ridiculed for doing God’s work so would Christians who desired to do the right thing.  He added that in the midst of such challenges, Christians should remain steadfast and serve God in humility and with great fear.

Rev. Nyonyo asked the congregation to count themselves as children of God, stand for the truth in all circumstances and remember that services rendered to God would not go unrewarded.

Activities lined up to mark the celebration include a night of choral songs administration, clean-up of the church and its environs, children’s commemorative programme, revival, quiz competition,  and candlelight  procession.
