The Authority of Christ Apostolic Church Nigeria & Overseas has inducted Pastor & Mrs. Christopher Aderemi Sunday Daramola as the 4th Superintendent of CAC Ogudu Zone, Ogudu, Pearce Region, Lagos State.
At the induction service held on Sunday, 30th June, 2024 at the Ogudu Zonal Headquarters, Lagos, Pastor Daramola was inducted by the Regional Superintendent of CAC Pearce Region, Pastor S.O Aluko who represented the church authority.
The induction rite set the tone for the ceremony, as Pastor Daramola and his wife were presented before the church, the Zonal executives, and Zonal Council; the guidelines of his new office were outlined, solidifying his role and responsibilities.
In his message titled "Relevance after Regeneration", the Regional Superintendent of Pearce Region, Pastor Aluko said everyone must find a way to be relevant in life.
“Food vendors, commercial bus drivers, etc are relevant in their various fields, but may not be relevant before God, " he said.
Referencing John 19:39, he said “Nicodemus would have a lot to say before he met Jesus Christ. He had the story but no connection with the God.”
“We become relevant before God only after we have been regenerated, that is born again”, said the Clergy.
He added that after regeneration, we become accredited agents or representatives of God.
Referencing Ephesians 4, Pastor Aluko implored Pastor Daramola to walk worthy of the calling with which he had been called, with all lowliness and gentleness.
He also charged the church to take care of Pastor Daramola and his family.
The induction service was attended by dignitaries from far and near. Friends and family of Pastor Daramola, along with pastors and their wives, and members from across the Zone gathered to witness and celebrate this significant event.
The mother-in-law and also the elder sister of Pastor Daramola, Deaconess Esther Oyelami and Pastor Mrs. Adebambo (RCCG) respectively, were present at the induction service.
