To every
living creature there is growth and expansion. Growth in knowledge and service
of God in truth and spirit. In line with the great commission to preach this
gospel to all inhabitants of this earth, Rumuekini group on the 30th
of May, amidst the heightened measures by government across the country to
curtail the spread of the covid-19, took the giant strides towards having a
district of their own for the sake of church expansion, mission work all to the
glory of God.
However, with
modest precautionary measures in line with the covid-19 guidelines, the group
inauguration was not only a reality but now a historic event.
The
Conference President, Pastor Anyalebechi Nnunukwe in his inspirational divine
message to the newly formed group christened “we never saw anything like these” encouraged the newly commissioned
group to use the fire still burning in their heart to work whole heartedly for
God. He counselled them on three essential Christian practices that if applied
ardently will speedy up mission work in the area.

“We are commissioning you
today to help bring those out there in our environment who need Jesus close to
him.”
“There are many who even those who do not know the truth are in bondage,
the ignorant; we need to bring them to God”
The cleric
who taught key lessons from the bible book of Mark 2:1-12 pinpointed that
members of Rumuekini group should uphold the three elements which comprises of
agreement, unity and determination. Like the four individuals who helped the
paralytic man, He appeal to all the newly inaugurated leaders to always agree.
“Before you do anything and succeed, please agree, your personal
interest should not overwhelm the group interest.
“There must be unity, for any achievement to be visible, we must agree.
God cannot manifest his effort in a troubled environment.
Furthermore,
the clergy charged them to be determined, faithful and assiduous in other to
uplift the district in their finances, zeal and courage. To him, these virtues
will bring about Extra-ordinary growth and development of the group.
The President
concluded by blessing the spaced congregation assuring them of Gods divine
blessings citing from “Isaiah 60:1”

recalled that the restructuring of Akpor District began with great zeal to
reach the unreached in the nooks and crannies of Akpor kingdom. On 31st
May, 2017 Akpor District made a request to Port Harcourt conference
Administration for an additional Pastor to nurture Rumuekini Church, Rumousi
Church, Alakahia Church and Ogbodo Rumuekini Church owing to their dispersed
geographical location from the headquarters.
