Flood Sacks Presbyterian Church In Abia As Members Worship With Umbrellas -VIDEO by Metrix147: 9:55pm On Jun 15, 2021
Confronted by a dilapidated and leaking worship centre, the Presbyterian Church of Nigeria, City Model Parish, Umuahia Abia State has called on good-spirited Nigerians, groups and the Christian community, in general, to come to their aid as they make efforts to pack to a befitting worship centre.

Not deterred by the situation of the current structure to have communion with their God, members of the church on Sunday defied the heavy downpour which flooded into the worship arena to have their normal Sunday service.

When ABN TV visited the church, members were sighted scooping water from the church hall while others were seen holding their umbrellas during the service.

Speaking with our correspondent, Rev. Engr. Cletus Mba, the Minister in charge of City Model Parish of Presbyterian Church Azikiwe Road Umuahia described the situation as pathetic.

The Clergy noted that the church has been robbed of its peace since the commencement of the rains, adding that as a parish, the centre ought to be a megacity church where people will worship freely.

According to Rev. Mba, the situation has remained challenging to the parish, urging Nigerians with modest means, especially members of Presbyterian Church nationwide to come to the Parish's assistance.

He expressed displeasure that after 175 years of existence of the church, worship services are still conducted in such an arena.

"The church of Jesus should not suffer shame. It should not suffer this type of thing. Please, brethren, let's come to the aid of City Model Parish in Azikiwe Road, Umuahia so that we can leave here.

"We have gotten a place we want to pay for. What is holding us now is the balance of N10m. As a church, we have committed about N11m. We are calling on good-spirited people of God to come and help us" he appealed.

Kudos to them for sticking to what they believe in but that doesn't change the fact that Nigeria is the most religious country in the world yet the underworld capital of the world. Who are these people worshiping under the rain? are they not Nigerians and why are there so many bad people in Nigeria?

I see friends and members home and abroad, donating millions of cash (hard currency inclusive) to the Reverend for the church building, I see him diverting some for his personal use, I see him buying a car and building his personal house, I see tongues waggling secretly amongst his members.

This I have seen.

Life in the street is filled with hustling and bustling and the fittest survives.
At a point in my life when the struggle was on how to survive not thrive.

I had this friend who normally comes around to vent his frustration when the market becomes really tough for him and everyone else.

At such moment, I will be so engrossed with pressing my smartphone sometimes standing right inside the scorching sun, that seems to be my only consolation.Often times, he'd wonder what kind of person I was, so attached to my phone. of course, he knows i wasn't doing anything bad with it.

He would complain bitterly then, he will say to me "I am changing my line of business"

Yes! He does changes his business however, nothing really changes it's the same style of selling. It's just a switch over to what his neighbour who also complains from time to time sells.And in a couple of weeks he would be back again with the same old story.

Moving in the same circle over and over.
He wasn't someone I could really explain things to, so i'd just listen to him and contribute my quota around the discussion subject.

If I press harder, he may end up insulting me. the last time I tried telling him the truth. His response was "if you know all dis things why you still dey dis street with us"What he didn't know is that, we were faced with *information gap*
Just the other day, I dropped my phone on the table to respond to a knock on the door and a friend mistakenly saw my affiliate dash board.

Wow! Guy what is this? and I said its my affiliate marketing dashboard.

He said; " I have never had anything called such before" of course, I did explain it to him in the simplest way i could.Information gap if bridged is capable of changing ones life from nothing to something in a short time frame.

It will always remain an insanity to do the same thing over and over and expect a different outcome.

There are information's that can transform your life you will never access by virtue of your mindset, location and network.Although, Information alone is not enough to do the magic but it remains the first step to getting it right.
You can't be wise If you don't know.
If you are taking action yet the result is not coming as it should, increase the frequency antennal of the information you receive.
Awareness would always close the gap of ignorance

Hypocrites, they cant hold their government responsible, but will always jerk on the North, Kaduna and Lagos.

Flood and Fraud ravaging Biafra underdeveloped land. With their useless government and citizen, all they know is how to condemn Lagos doing 1000 times better than their Osu land

That is my church but Presbyterian church of over 50years in Nigeria shouldn't be the one calling on people to help them build their church bc they are worshipping under a leaking roof. Their management should be investigated, I think corruption has entered into their overall leadership. This is an insult to the church and her members across the country.
How can a church of 50 members in umuahia be saying such rubbish?
