BAPTISM
By the grace of God, the centre recorded two baptisms during the quarter. We thank God that both of them are presently worshiping with the Congregation at 80, Iju Road, Ifako-Ijaiye, Lagos, Nigeria.
CHURCH PLANTING/RESTORATION
Bearvalley Bible Institute Agege Centre is working hard to revive “a dying congregation” at Iwaya, Yaba, Lagos. This is a congregation that was having membership of about sixty (60), but now has less than fifteen (15) active members. We are still working on this, more information on this will be given in the next report. The centre is also playing a key role in the planned church planting at Mulero-Agege-Lagos. The evangelism is scheduled for 3rd, 4th and 5th October, 2024. We need prayers for the success of this programme.
APPRECIATION
The activities of the centre would not have been possible without the support of our sponsors and directors. We acknowledge your invaluable financial and moral support. May God continue to bless and empower Bear Valley Church of Christ, individual donors and particularly Keith Kasarjian and Chad Wagner. May God reward your efforts in building and expanding His church, especially in training teachers and evangelists.
CONCLUSION
Once again we thank God for the success we recorded in third quarter of 2024.
