Other members of the delegation include Dr. Godwin Edozie, Barrister Isaac Okpanachi, National President of Nigeria (FGBMFI), Bro. Stephen Okruefe and Mr. & Mrs. Joseph Mamodu.
The fellowship established in 1952 by an American Christian businessman, Demos Shakarian, in California is a global movement of Christians from different denominations and diverse expertise, working together to propagate the Gospel of Jesus Christ in fulfillment of the Great Commission.
Although the fellowship started initially with frustration and disappointments characterized by poor attendance in initial meetings and lack of money, it has been organized in about 163 countries worldwide.
In addition, millions of lives have been impacted globally through groups of ordinary Christians laymen inspired by a God-given vision that was originally imparted to Demos Shakarian.
During one of the training sessions held at Evelyn Restaurant in Sinkor, Monrovia, Dr. Edozie said Full Gospel is a spiritual work that has a vision and mission.
In order to become successful in life, Dr. Edozie encouraged his fellow believers to always factor God first in their plan and allow the Holy Spirit to provide guidance and direction in their Christian journey.
Dr. Edozie added that the fellowship is not a church, but rather a network of professionals having strong passion and commitment in winning souls using their God-given gifts and sharing of testimonies which inspire individuals to join the body of Christ,
On Saturday, October 17, a joint breakfast meeting took place at the Bella Casa Hotel on 2nd Street in Sinkor, Monrovia and brought together participants representing four chapters that have been established in Liberia.
In his welcome remarks, the National President of the FGBMFI-Liberia, Arthur Fumbah, extended profound gratitude and described the visit by the
Nigerian FGBMFI as a clear manifestation of their desire to help Liberia become stronger and more effective in managing chapters to the glory of God.
Fumbah reflected on the warm reception accorded to them during their visit to Nigeria in 2019. Regarding progress, he said the guest, Liberia has established four chapters, and expressed optimism that additional chapters would be established in the coming year.
The main speaker at the breakfast meeting was the National President of the FGBMFI of Nigeria, who is a Solicitor, Advocate and Notary Public.
Isaac Okpanachi challenged executives of the Liberian FGBMFI to engage those in authority to always reference God first as they provide stewardship for the country since, in fact, Liberia is a Nation Founded on Christian principles.
He further prayed for the nation and asked God to use the Full Gospel Fellowship in heading and reconciling Liberia.
Moderating the breakfast meeting was Liberia’s FGBMFI Eminent Chapter President, Dr. Nathania T. Blama, Sr., assisted by Bro. Wilson Gaglo-Delali, National Prayer Coordinator, while sister Mama Wesaye led the praise & Worship Team.
