I have attended the Easter Camp meeting organised by the
House of Grace Church for 5 years now. The program has never failed to recharge
and put me back on track, because by March/April, I have probably started
seeing my yearly targets as too large or too unattainable. But after camp
meetings, I’m uplifted in spirit and ready for anything! Best of all, the
meeting make me remember Christ’s death and resurrection.
Camp meeting has been held at ASCON Badagry for the past 5
years, and this year all roads still lead that way come March 28. And by God’s
grace, I’ll be making that trip. This reminds me of my first camp meeting trip
in 2008. The Meeting was tagged SHINE! I took the bus from the church premises
on Thursday, and camped out with my cousins till Saturday when I had to leave
for some weekend lectures I was taking for a professional course. I enjoyed the
family atmosphere, hanging out with my six cousins, scrambling for the
bathroom, rushing to get to the camp ground on time, groaning when it was time
for 6am prayers, enjoying the open air evening services.
I missed the last two days of the programme, but when I took
my Saturday bus out of Badagry, I took with me notes on why and how I could let
my light shine from the Host Pastors, branch pastors, and guest ministers, and
they helped me through a tough year, changing jobs and passing my exams. And
best of all, a strong confidence in the knowledge that Jesus truly did die that
I might live an abundant life.
This year, I’m so looking forward to making Great Impact! #GI13

I remember the bathroom traffic
I can remember Pastor Paul Enenche teaching that something should shine out of you when you go to a place, people should be able to trace God in you long before you speak, I thought about it a lot...
It was a great camp meeting.
