Christianity is about meeting spiritual, physical and material needs, just like Jesus Christ and the early church did, unlike today; the Church is now taking more than it is giving.

Pastor Rosemary Akaette, Founder, Living Encouraged Ministries and Convener, Sought Out Outreach, said this in her address at the maiden outreach and empowerment conference for widows in Lagos.

She added that the lack of focus on the welfare of Christians had exposed the Church to criticism, adding “the Church has missed it.”

Represented by Pastor John Okwuone, Senior Pastor, Love Christian Centre, LCC, Pastor Akaette urged the beneficiaries to also “bless and empower others as you were reached to reach others.”

At the conference, over 50 women were trained in makeup and hair making, simple snacks and cake making, and liquid soap and detergent making.
