It was a celebration of 50 years of walking with God at the Golden Jubilee Anniversary of Christ Apostolic Church, Alabukun, Ikorodu Districts' Coordinating Council (DCC), Ikorodu, Lagos on Sunday November 10, 2019.
The anniversary celebration, which started few weeks ago with different activities, ended with a Thanksgiving Service where Award of Appreciation was given to the President of CAC Worldwide, Pastor Abraham O. Akinosun, Akinyele Regional Superintendent, Pastor Moses O. Yusuff and people who have contributed immensely to the growth of the church in the last 50 years.
The DCC Superintendent of Ikorodu DCC, Pastor Lawrence O. Akinloye while delivering the welcome address gave all glory, honour and adoration to God Almighty for His faithfulness that has seen the church through the last 50 years.
He said God has been faithful to His promise that the gate of hell shall not prevail against His church, saying that little wonder despite all storms, tides and tempest, the church is still waxing stronger.
Pastor Akinloye recognized and appreciated the efforts of the Ministers that had served before him which include Late Pastor Moses O. Omokagbor, Late Pastor Isaiah Oloruntoba Alamuoye, Late Pastor Daniel Ayo Ayotunde, Pastor Paul Kehinde Bankole and many others.
"I must not forget to appreciate the contributions of some old members of this church (too numerous to mention) who have been lifted by God as His Ministers and are serving in various capacities today as Pastors, District Superintendents, Zonal and DCC Superintendents in Christ Apostolic Church," he said.
While preaching on the theme of the anniversary which is "Beginning of New Glory", President of CAC Worldwide, Pastor Akinosun said anyone who wants to enter into new glory must be born again.
He said entering into new glory means one will enjoy more of His favour, goodness and protection never enjoyed before.
Pastor Akinosun said that as believers, we must pray to God to absolutely free us from the yoke of sin and forsake all for Christ.
He told the church:" We thank God for the message He sent to Pastor Omokagbor through Pastor Olutimehin to start the church. You still have more grounds to cover for Christ. You're in Ikorodu to shine the light of Christ for the fulfilment of the scripture."
