Speaking during the coronation service held on Sunday at the church in Gwagwalada, the Director of Girls’ Auxiliary (GA) of the Amazon Grace Baptist Association (AGBA), Mrs Ruth Oladoja, admonished the newly promoted GAs to always live Godly lives worthy of emulation wherever they found themselves.
While stressing the need for them to give priority to their quiet time and morning devotion, Mrs Ruth Oladoja advised them to remain committed to their educational pursuits towards becoming productive and responsible children of God in society and Nigeria at large.
In her congratulatory message to the newly promoted GAs, a former Director of the Social Ministries Department, FCT Baptist Conference, Dr Mrs Naomi Adelabu, urged them to always put into practice what they had learnt during their pre-promotion exercises to enable them to continue to be good ambassadors of the church and their families.
Dr Mrs Naomi Adelabu also enjoined them to shun immoral behaviours and desist from acts detrimental to the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Some of the newly promoted GAs, Wuraola Ayoola, Abigael Oyelami and Busayo Emmanuel, expressed gratitude to God for the opportunity to move to the next step in the course of their service to God and humanity.
They prayed to God to grant them the grace to succeed in the discharge of their duties as Christians and in their chosen careers in life.
Highlights of the coronation service included the decoration of the newly promoted GAs, presentation of awards and gifts, thanksgiving and special prayers for them, as well as the ushering of Busayo Emmanuel into Lydia after the successful completion of her seven steps as a GA member.
