RCCG Upgrades Abandon Hospitals. by seunlly(m): 10:37pm On Jan 07, 2017 |
THE joy of residents of Magboro and Arepo
communities in the Obafemi Owode Local Governmnet
Area of Ogun State knew no bounds last week, as
Province 2 of the Redeemed Christian Church of God.
RCCG, dedicated a multi-million naira health care
facility for the use of the community.
Dedicating the hospital, Still-Waters Hospital, wife of
the church’s General Overseer, Pastor (Mrs.) Folu
Adeboye advised members of the community and their
leaders to protect the 11-bed hospital, work in peace,
love and harmony.
According to her, the facility has been built for the
use of the community without bias for religion or
tribe, saying: “Whatever God does, He does it for all.
We must not allow religious discrimination; we must
not say this was done by Christians. We must live in
love and provide adequate security to the facility and
protect it from vandalism.”
Pastor-in-Charge of RCCG Region 19, Pastor Brown
Oyitso while admonishing residents of the area, on
‘Christian Social Responsibility’, said the provision of
the health facility was the church’s adherence to the
commandment of Jesus Christ that Christians should
show forth a lifestyle of compassion and love
wherever they are.
Oyitso said the gesture also forms part of the core
mandate given to all Provinces by the General
Overseer, Pastor Enoch Adeboye who had tasked the
church to impact positively on the society, especially
the immediate environment.
“It is good to do good. Government of the day cannot
do it all and that is why our father in the Lord, Pastor
Adeboye instructed us to do good works by impacting
the community we establish our churches positively,”
he said.
The Pastor-in-charge of the Province, Pastor Yemi
Lebi explained that the land for the project was
donated to the community by former Ogun State
Governor Olusegun Osoba, but the community was
unable to equip the health centre built thereon until
the church noticed the building during an evangelistic
outreach and stepped in to salvage the situation.
Lebi said the province took over and upgraded the
health centre to an ultra modern one, fully stocked
with drugs, with state-of-the-art medical equipment,
including ultra-sound scan facilities and an x-ray
machine with various medical personnel on ground to
minister to the patients.
In his words: ”It is not for profit, will be high-ly
subsidised and patients will pay only a token to
access health-care at Stillwaters Hospital,” he said,
add-ing that this was only one of the church’s many
CSR projects.
Responding, Magbo-ro/Arepo community
development committee chairman, Mr. Ayo-deji Kuku
appreciated the church for successfully upgrading the
health centre to a modern hospital for good health
service delivery to the community. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/rccg-upgrades-abandoned-hospital/ |
