The Rivers State Government recognises the vital role faith-based organisations play in shaping a strong society by donating 20 million naira to the Foundation Faith Church.
This was announced by Deputy Governor Professor Ngozi Nma Odu, who represented Governor Sir Siminalayi Fubara at the 36th Anniversary Celebration of Foundation Faith Church, Salem City of Faith, Rumuomasi, Port Harcourt, on June 30th, 2024, Hitvibz reports.
Professor Odu highlighted the church’s significant contributions, emphasising how their work complements the government’s efforts “to build a stronger and more compassionate Rivers State.”
The theme for this year’s celebration, “Rescue,” resonated deeply with the government, Professor Odu noted.
She explained how this theme connects to both our “spiritual and civic duties.” Foundation Faith Church was commended for its commitment to serving the community.
For 36 years, the Church has provided “outreach programmes, counselling services, and spiritual guidance,” acting as a “beacon of hope and a source of rescue” for countless individuals.
In recognition of their impactful service, Governor Fubara pledged his support by presenting the church with a contribution of 20 million naira.
The church’s founder, Archbishop Sam Amaga, delivered a powerful sermon centred on the theme of “Rescue,” drawing inspiration from Jude 1:23.
Archbishop Amaga emphasised the church’s role as a “rescue mission,” entrusted by Jesus Christ “to save unbelievers from hell.”
He challenged the congregation, urging them to embrace “soul-winning” as a “primary assignment,” stressing that evangelism is not solely the responsibility of pastors but a “burden of every believer.”
Bishop Ogoliegbune Hillary, the National Coordinating Bishop of Nigeria, Foundation Faith Church Worldwide, acknowledged the challenges faced over the past 36 years.
He expressed his gratitude for God’s grace and mercy in equipping Archbishop Amaga and commended the Rivers State Government for its support and recognition of the Church’s contributions.
