Oyedepo lifts the old at 55th birthday

The Bishop of the Living Faith Church World Wide (a.k.a Winners Chapel), Rev. David Oyedepo, at the weekend lifted the spirits of the poor as part of activities marking his 55th birthday.

Some of his senior pastors were at Regina Mundi Catholic Church’s Old People’s Home, Mushin, Lagos, where they presented some gifts on Rev. Oyedepo’s behalf.

The leader of the team and an Associate Pastor, Mr. John Izebere, said the move was to show Bishop Oyedepo’s love for the aged.

He said the gifts were to nourish them physically and spiritually, adding that the cleric is concerned about them.

The items presented to the Home included seven bags of rice, seven kegs of groundnut oil, five packs of hot balm, two cartons of beverages and five packs of toilet soap.

The delegation also visited the Lagos State government, Ministry of Youth and Sports Development, Old People’s Home, Sabo, Yaba, where similar gifts were presented to the Social Welfare Officers in charge of the Home, Mrs Sadiat Sabiu and Mr. Ola Omisile.

Another member of the team, Pastor Paul Maijeh, described the occasion as an extension of God’s love in Rev. Oyedepo’s life.
