The Redeemed Christian Church of God has ordained 12,811 Deacons and Deaconesses and 4,060 Assistant Pastors at its 67 Annual Convention, which kicked off at the Redemption Camp on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway on Monday, with the theme: “And God Said.

Describing the 2019 Convention as a mighty and prophetic one never seen before, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Church, had in July promised participants some of the first things God said to man

God said to man “he is blessed, he will be fruitful, multiply and have dominion.

Pastor Adeboye prophesized that participants who have challenges in those areas of life will be relieved of them at the Convention.

On Monday morning, the 12,811 Deacons and Deaconesses were ordained in the tradition of the church.

The church’s National Overseer, Pastor Joseph Obayemi, presented the candidates to the General Overseer for ordination to help in the growth of the church and in service to God.

The candidates were so many that the ordination was done in batches with senior ministers taking turn to lay hands on them.
The number of those ordained on Monday was 1,563 higher than the figure of last year when the Pastor Adeboye ordained 11,258 deacons and deaconesses, drawn from various parishes of the church.

Explaining the process of ordination, Adeboye said: “In the Redeemed Christian Church of God, ordination is done by laying of hands, proclamation and prayers.”

The candidates filed out in batches for hand-laying by Pastor Adeboye’s senior assistants.

Making the proclamation later, he said: “Every time God speaks, it is a declaration of His will, power and purpose concerning the situation.

He always says what he means and means what he says.
He is never ambiguous or deceptive.
You can bet on every word from him.
Jesus is dependable and will not lie nor deceive.
Therefore, every word of God spoken to you or read from the scriptures is infallible, it cannot be stopped, it cannot be hindered and it cannot be broken.

We ordain you as Deacons and Deaconesses in the Redeemed Christian Church of God in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

The Almighty himself will overshadow you; the Holy Spirit will be your strength; whatever you ask to come will come; whatever you ask to go will go.

You will not fall; you will not fail. God Himself will use you for His Glory; and in the Kingdom of God you will not be found missing.”

Adeboye also prayed for them.
The ordination of the Assistant Pastors on Tuesday morning followed the same pattern, while the ordination of 1,885 as Full Pastors will hold on Sunday.

The ordination was one of the resolutions of the Governing Council of the RCCG at the end of the 2018/2019 calendar year.
Other resolutions included:

Transfers of pastors and others this year

Sunday School Teachers to meet only fortnightly now to prepare for Sunday School (Prep) for two weeks so that they can be free on two Saturdays of the month to go for Evangelism.

This also applies to the Choir – they will be meeting fortnightly.

Part Timers” cannot rise beyond the Post of “Special Assistant to the General Overseer” (SATGO) in terms of promotion

Full Timers” can even rise to become the General Overseer
The Establishment of seventeen new provinces and one new region. Because the “West Coast” of Africa is quite large; it will be further divided into three Sections/Regions with each manned by a SATGO.

The Northern Part of Nigeria to be broken to North West, North Central and North East because of the workload in the Northern part of Nigeria.

In a short sermon on Monday night, Pastor Adeboye reminded workers of the church and House Fellowship leaders of God’s recognition of their contribution and His reward for them.

Lack of employment...

That's huge. Praise the lord! The church is marching on.

Congrats to them.
However, It is becoming more of a mere doctrinal ceremony with little or no significant values as demonstrated by Christ in the choice of life they live personally. I have seen many acquiring the status only to be glorified by it. This is the reason immorality will continue to dwell more within them & by extension to those who look upon them. The one & only true way to win a soul & please God is by personal lifestyle & the amount of love in you to others.

So people did not go to work or what

7days for church
Chaiii

I see.

To Where precisely because the church is still in one place

Hmmm...

One thing i dont like about redeem ordinance is that they don't do background check on these people. Just go to bible school and graduate and you're automatically a pastor/deacon even if you've got the worst behavior

At this rate,all redeemed members will soon be pastors,deacons or deaconneses.

The only vibrant industry in Nigeria asides betting, politics and clubbing

Is he recruiting them into the Army?

Maybe they are Army of Christ
