Mothers Urged to Foster Strong Relationship with God for Peaceful and Godly Homes

Mothers Urged to Foster Strong Relationship with God for Peaceful and Godly Homes

Mothers have been urged to prioritize cultivating a strong, cordial relationship with God, as this will enable them to establish peaceful and godly homes.

 

The call was made by the Rt. Rev. Dr. James Olusola Odedeji, Bishop of the Diocese of Lagos West Anglican Communion, during the 26th Mother's Union Enrollment ceremony held on Sunday at the Archbishop Vining Memorial Church Cathedral, Ikeja, Lagos.

 

Addressing the gathering, Bishop Odedeji highlighted the central mission of the Mother's Union, emphasizing that it is more than just a local organization but a global society dedicated to upholding Christ's teachings on marriage. He explained that the Mother's Union plays a critical role in promoting a deeper understanding of Jesus’ message, encouraging parents to raise their children in the faith, and fostering a global fellowship of Christians united in prayer, worship, and service.

 

Bishop Odedeji also encouraged the newly enrolled members of the union to be a "beacon of light" in society, stressing that a life without the light of Christ is both meaningless and devoid of purpose.

 

The event also featured the enrollment of new members, led by Dr. Lydia Odedeji, the President of the Women's Organization. In addition to the enrollment ceremony, the event included a thanksgiving service and the presentation of awards to the archdeaconries with the best performances in fundraising and union membership.

 

The occasion marked a significant moment for the Mother's Union, as it continues to uphold its commitment to fostering faith, community, and service among Christian families worldwide.
