Children’s Day Celebration

Ehikodi Thelma

Children are said to be the leaders of tomorrow which means they have to be trained today so as to take up their leadership role tomorrow. That is why the Foursquare Gospel Church has set aside a day to celebrate the children.

In commemoration of the Children’s day celebration, The Foursquare Gospel Church nationwide relinquished the stage for the Children. At the Ebute-Ojora branch, the children showcased their talents and their worths as they took up the normal Sunday worship routine of the Church. They had a variety of programmes ranging from Praise /Worship, Choreography and even Dance Drama.

Praise Worship Section

The children astounded the entire congregation with their ability to lead them into soul lifting worship. Even the highest ranked in the church could not help but dance to the songs led by the Children.

Choreography

The array of cultural attires was awesome as the children choreographed the lyrics of the song “Kene Jesu” which was done by Midnight “Crew”

 



Cadets-on-Parade

Another interesting activity was “Cadet’s on Parade” performed by children between 7 and 13 years of age as according to the Foursquare Gospel Doctrine, they are regarded as the young soldiers (Cadets) fighting evil in the world. This was characterized by the recitation of the Cadet Pledge and Song, Christian pledge and song, Bible pledge and song, Foursquare pledge and song and even the National anthem and pledge.  

Children News

Just as adults have career, the children are also aspiring to build their intellect in that aspect as a child said the News on the Hour – aspiring to be a journalist.

It was a great and wonderful experience for the children and the entire church as God used the children to touch lives in Foursquare Gospel Church, Ebute-Ojora. They are God's Heritage indeed.
