Most Rev. Nicholas Okoh, the Primate, Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion), says the 8th edition of the Divine Commonwealth Conference (DIVCCON) provides Christian faithful the opportunity to invest in Jesus and seek the Lord’s face as 2019 election approaches.
Okoh made this known through the Director of Communication, Ven. Foluso Taiwo, who spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja on Monday.
He said that the theme for the 2018 conference is “I will restore”, adding that the inspiration to institute DIVCCON was the product of meditation.
“We discovered that most of our meetings, though avenues for prayers and worship, they were essentially administrative in nature.
“So, I felt under God’s guidance that we should just gather for the purpose of spirituality and do nothing else; speak to edify people, ministrations, prayers and fellowship.
“It is a platform for people who are not necessarily Anglicans to come and join in worshipping and praising the Almighty God.”
According to him, the conference will feature exposition on various sub-themes and seminars in the mornings, with the evenings devoted to revival services.
He said that Anglican faithful in Nigeria and from the Diaspora, among others, were expected to participate in the conference holding at the National Christian Centre, Abuja from Nov. 12 to Nov. 16, 2018.
The Church of Nigeria has a population of about 18 million and is divided into 14 provinces.
