It will be joy unlimited today as Christ Apostolic Church, Olorunshogo Mushin Lagos holds the thanksgiving service of its 70ths anniversary.
The 70th anniversary celebration actually started on Saturday November 4th 2017.
The authority of CAC Worldwide being led by the President, Pastor Abraham Akinosun, General Superintendent, Pastor S.O. Oladele, General Secretary, Pastor Mapur and others will be present at the anniversary.
In an exclusive interview with CAC NEWS, the incumbent DCC Superintendent, CAC Olorunshogo Mushin, Pastor S.F. Obisesan appreciated the name of the most high God for the journey of the church so far, saying that the gate of hell has not prevailed and will never prevail over His church.
He further stated that; “The church started 70years ago. The 50th anniversary of the church was celebrated in grand style, same as the 60th anniversary. It is now 70th anniversary. CAC Olorunshogo is no doubt developing both physically and spiritually. The church is increasing in all ramification for the glory of God on daily basis and physical development could be seen. On the 21st of June this year, we laid a foundation of another building within the compound of the church. Presently the building has been roofed. The church is developing both physically and spiritually. There is no chaos in the church and peace is prevailing. We understand one and another, and that is why we are able to plan for the 70th anniversary. There is no rancor or pandemonium of any type. God is taking total control and the church is improving.”
According to him, in the last 70 years CAC Olorunshogo has planted so many churches, explaining that some of them that are no longer under them because they have been given autonomous, saying that presently the church has about six or seven districts.
”The first thing that has been sustaining or upholding the church is the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit is doing tremendous work here and that is why we are increasing daily. There is unity, love and peace. Although about five years ago there was a rancor in the church, but we thank God that peace is reigning now. We love one and another, and Holy Spirit is reigning. There is no problem between ministers of God in the church. The ministers of God are living peaceful with the church, the church is living peacefully with them,” Pastor Obisesan concluded.
Pastor Akinosun is expected to dedicate the 70thanniversary building this morning before the commencement of the anniversary.
