The 2 years and 9 months old church at Ata Essien Obio Akpa village appreciated me and my family with gifts of food items, Wall clock and Towel for our efforts in planting and raising the church. We were excited for the New Christian hearts of gratitude, we pray for God’s blessings on them to grow to maturity in Christ.

Pray for God’s wisdom and knowledge on him as he goes to stay away from us in the school as we plan for him to be in a Christian School and for resources to see him through his education.
