The Adventist Men’s Organization (AMO) of Abia North Central Conference, has visited the School for the Blind Afaraukwu as part of their AMO impact day activities.
Impact day is a day set aside by the Men’s organization to visit the less privileged, share gifts and pray with them.
Speaking during the visit the Director of Adventist Men’s Organization, Abia North Central Conference, Mr Rex Uwakwe, said as a mission driven Church, the organization exists to fulfill the Lord’s mandate.
Uwakwe said they came to administer what the Lord has provided for the school through the Men’s Organization of Seventh-day Adventist in Abia North Central Conference.
According to him, it would be naive for any of the students to think that they have been abandoned as God is aware of their condition and will never abandon them.
He said that God as all knowing knows their condition and had sent the organization to visit the school as He can never leave them uncared for.
The AMO leader enjoined them to remain steadfast in the Lord.
Also speaking, the Eastern Nigerian Union Conference Director of AMO Elder Sampson Agomuo, admonished the Students to know that God loves them irrespective of their present condition.
Agomuo said that they came to interact with the students, offer them medical check-up , pray with them and share whatever they have with them.
He prayed God to visit and grant them their heart desires.
In his short admonition, the pastor in charge of evangelism in Abia North Central Conference of Seventh-day Adventist Church, Pastor Godwin Oden, said that there is still hope in a world filled with hopelessness and sorrow as nothing remains the same forever.
Oden while speaking on the topic ” Hope In A Hopless World” enjoined the students to trust in Jesus as He will redefine their condition as He came for us, died for us and is interceding for us.
He ,therefore, reminded all that there greater hope in the second coming of Christ.
In her response, the Principal of the school Mrs Ngozi Selin Olugu, appreciated the organization for coming to identify with the school.
She thanked them for the gift and prayed God to replenish and reward them abundantly.
Items presented during the visit include; bags of rice, bag of salt, packs of tissues, cartons of Noddles, cartons of detergents, vegetable oil, fairly used clothes among other item.
