As part of the activities to mark her 20th anniversary, Christ Apostolic Church Youth Fellowship (CACYOF), Glory of God Assembly, Akure Ondo State will today Saturday July 7, 2018 hold a love feast and alumni reunion service by 4pm.
In an exclusive interview with CAC NEWS, their Youth Coordinator, Mr. Israel O. Afolayan said that CACYOF Glory of God Assembly is the youth wing of CAC Glory of God Assembly and majorly called the Glorious Youths.
He noted that the premium the church places on the development of the youth is encapsulated in 3 "Ds" approach of the visioner; Discover, Develop and Declaration.
According to him, the mission of the church which is to "strengthen thy brethren" finds ready compliments in the environment in which the church is situated few meters away from the Federal University of Technology, Akure.
He further stated that: "when the church started in 1995, some FUTA Students joined and a group was encouraged to form the FUTA Brethren group within the church. After the mantle of leadership fell on a young but dynamically pragmatic vessel in person of Bro. Shola Oladiran (who was later ordained as an evangelist in the church in 2003), the FUTA Brethren group transformed to the Youth Fellowship of the church and thus, he became the first President of the Fellowship and presently the Youth Minister."
"The group which started in 1997 with just about 10 students witnessed astronomical growth in 1999 - 2000 with a numerical strengths of hundredths."
"The youth fellowship caters for the general wellbeing of young ones in the church including secondary school students and higher institutions starting from FUTA to all other parts of the country."
Congratulations
