Earlier this year the campus of Obafemi Owolowo University in Ile-Ife was closed unexpectedly for some time. Did our campus staff assigned to OAU just sit idle during that time? Of course not! For a month they went instead to the O.A.U. Pre-degree centre at nearby Moro for evangelism and discipleship. This was a strategic move, because more than 50 percent of these young students may eventually get admission into OAU next session so follow up and discipleship with them would be possible. (more…)

GCMN staff members from Ibadan were invited to a church to conduct a Family Life Marriage Conference in June. At the church, the first person to arrive was an old man, whom they later found out was 92 years of age. “What did he come to do? Will he benefit from the programme? How will he make use of the teaching?” These were some of the questions going through the mind of our staff member. During the teaching the elderly man was busy writing points down, and sometimes making some side talk with the man by his side. What would he do with what he was learning?

At the end of the day he told us. He said, “I thank God that I came for this programme. I could not apply these to my children but my grandchildren and great-grandchildren will be blessed by this. I will take these points seriously and apply them to my grand and great-grandchildren.  You should not under rate what God can use others to do in your life. When you stop learning you are dead.” (more…)
