For miracles to happen in families, there has to be premium investment in the efforts at achieving peace and harmony between married couples. When this happens, the grace, glory and power of God become manifestly evident in such homes.
This was the postulation of a senior pastor in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Patrick Asasa, when he addressed couples at a get-together for couples tagged “An Evening of Love” to mark St. Valentine’s Day 2020 at the RCCG Redeemer’s Sanctuary Parish, Willbros Road, Bonny, Rivers State.

He counseled married and intending couples to place premium value on achieving peace in their homes and between them and their spouses, noting that a successful marriage is the cumulative effort of both partners, stressing that this was the intention of God in creating the marriage institution.

Earlier, host of the event, Pastor John Collins, who is also the Zonal Pastor of the Redeemer’s Sanctuary Zone in Rivers Province 6, had praised the sacrifices made by married couples to sustain their marriages, urging them to leverage the supernatural provisions made by God to ensure the success of their marriages.
Special Adviser to the Chairman, Bonny LGA, Lambert Ibiama, and his wife, Tonye, Area Pastors of Reigning King Area Parish, Pastor Charles Okoro, and Living Waters Area Parish, Pastor Omoni Pepple, Publisher of Kristina Reports, Godswill Jumbo, and his wife and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Annie’s Food Mart, Anita, Pastor of RCCG Youth Province 5, Pastor Edwin Onah, represented by Pastor Victor Jumbo, and his wife, were among dignitaries that graced the occasion.
