The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Chapel of Love, Abule Osho, Ogun State, and family members penultimate Sunday celebrated the 60th birthday of Mrs. Victoria Ayeni, described as a dedicated Sunday school teacher in the church.
At the thanksgiving service held in her honour, family, friends, and church members said the milestone event served as an occasion to celebrate her life of faith and dedicated service.
Ayeni, in her reflection, provided an insight into a life guided by unwavering faith, stressing that her longevity and blessings are a clear manifestation of answered prayers.
‘I am grateful about everything. God has been answering my prayers, God has been good to me,’ the celebrant stated, adding that ‘Most of the time I call upon Him, He is always answering me. I want to thank the Lord for the spirit to know Him and I pray that the Lord will help me to continue to know Him more in the name of Jesus Christ.’
In a moving testimony, she described a domestic accident involving her son, which she described as an ‘unforgettable’ moment.
‘The one that I cannot forget easily is when my son had a domestic accident. He fell on top of a Pepsi bottle. His intestine came out. But my son survived by a divine intervention. I saw the goodness of God, I saw the mercy of God, God saw me through and today, he is a living testimony.’
The celebrant’s husband, Mr. Amos Ayeni, spoke glowingly of her saying: ‘I love my wife so much and I want her to keep being humble, hardworking, and serving God. Whenever we have any issue among ourselves we always make sure we settle within ourselves without letting anyone interfere.’
The Area Pastor in charge of the church, Pastor Afolabi Adejobi, highlighted the celebrant’s crucial roles within the ministry, painting a picture
