Lady Ebe Urges Christians to Exhibit Love, Peace and The of Fear God

The Deputy Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Lady Valerie Ebe, has charged Christians to strive, at all times, to show love, peace and also exhibit the fear of God for the good of the society.

Lady Ebe, who spoke on Sunday at The Apostolic Church, 69 Oron Road, Uyo, during the child dedication ceremony of one of her aides, Etido Etete, said Christians should exhibit a strong bond of love and unity and be selfless in their dedication to one another as it’s demanded of us by our Creator.

She also reasoned that if love and unity exist in every family, the society would sure be a better place for all to coexist peaceably.

The Deputy Governor, who said the child, little Uforo, would be one of the future leaders of the state, said it was obvious from the turn-out of a cross-section of church members, well wishers and loved ones that the parents were loveable personalities.

She felicitated them on the dedication of their baby and prayed God to make the child outstanding in life.

In his homily, the presiding Pastor, Pastor Bassey Usanga, who gave his sermon from the Bible Book of Genesis Chapter Eight and Verses 12 – 15, said he was led by the spirit of God to bring the promises of the month of March, gotten during the Church’s Anointing Service, on the people.

He said children were special gifts from God and should be treated and adored as such and charged the parents to raise the child in accordance with scriptures.

Pastor Usanga said the fervent prayer of the church will continually sustain the Chief Godswill Akpabio-led administration.

Responding, Mr. Etete, thanked God for giving him a child and pledged to bring up the child in the way of the Lord and also promised to serve God faithfully in his life in appreciation of God’s faithfulness towards him and his wife.

He described the Deputy Governor as a loving mother whose benevolence has inspired his family and prayed God to continually bless her.

Highlights of the ceremony were special prayer by church’s presbytery for the Deputy Governor, prayer for the State Government and thanksgiving by the family.
