The meeting that was earlier scheduled for yesterday (Monday) could not hold as the Minister did not show up at the bureau but sent a memo to the CCB, citing national assignment. He wrote, asking that it be rescheduled because he has a national assignment, so it has been rescheduled for a later date,” Kato said. “We don’t have a precise date now, but it has been rescheduled to another day,” she said.

Many worshippers and pilgrims seek after pastors and prophets these days in the name of miracle almost completely oblivious of Christ. Though miracle is a vital aspect of the ministry of Christ and his most important teaching tool; unfortunately, its fundamental essence is badly symbolised in today’s church.
