Definitely a December to remember as estimated tens of thousands of worshippers made their way to worship God and obtain their More Than A Conqueror status at Faith Tabernacle-OTA, where several hundreds of church workers from various units were dispatched to maintain order around the mammoth church structure

"Where can I find free bus? Where is the Youth Chapel? Is there water at 3rd John? Is there someone seated beside you? Where is Faith park? Who did you come with? Where can I charge? How can I get a one on one with Bishop or any of the officiating ministers? Are top among pressing questions from campers that besieged workers and fellow campers at Shiloh2021. But here we'll be highlighting the attributes of church units and workers, whose activities helped in making Shiloh2021 a truly More Than A Conqueror experience.

Determined to have their respective personal encounter with the God of the Bible, representatives from over 44 nations, and online viewership across 176 countries joined the overflow at Canaanland during the 22nd edition of Shiloh, aptly tagged More Than A Conqueror

Anyone with a keen eye would applaud the efforts of various units whose official parlance and jargons added fun to the stay of campers and visitors. Here are the units I can remember, their job description and some official slangs that often put them at loggerheads with campers.

Fun fact; These unit workers are a humble blend of captains of corporate industries, young multimillionaires, highly gifted youths, internationally renowned business professionals and several other prestigious occupations, with a common goal in sight: working hand in hand to return all glory by serving the Living God who made all things possible for all of us who believe.

The Security Unit are Canaanlands official first and external line of defense. Comparable to a group of low budget Jack Bauers, they are responsible for controlling the massive traffic in and out of Canaanland. And are ever ready to contain worrisome situations. You will spot them at the entrance, handing out gate pass to vehicles, radioing updates with walkie talkies, and searching personal effects of Canaanland visitors,
"Please do not leave with what is not yours!
Open your bags please!"

Once in Canaanland, the next Unit you are likely to encounter are the Sanctuary Keepers:
In such a crowded facility with so much activity, they are probably the hardest workers as their work never seems to end.
They are responsible for keeping the entire Faith Tabernacle clean and beautiful. And often fall into disputes with campers when the Tabernacle gets closed because most worshippers would like to eat, sleep, if possible live inside the auditorium (which I also wouldn't personally endorse).
"Everybody, please exit the building!
The Tabernacle is closed!"

Confident, smartly dressed and well-spoken, Crowd Control Unit (CCU)/Surveillance, are my favorites, always acting, feeling, serving and sounding like James Bond for God's house. Their color is Yellow, and their disposition is mainly corporate. When they are not trying to reduce number of thefts and sorry situations around the Tabernacle, you will see them parading the grounds with earpiece hanging and usually shouting at slowpokes on the driveways.
"Use the Walkway, Keep Moving!
Use the next entrance please."

Hospitality Group, as their name implies, are courteous and the most hospitable in all of Canaanland units. They hardly talk, mostly signs and gestures, unless questions are asked. Their job description entails collecting information, while assisting new converts through the process of dedicating their life to Almighty God through Jesus Christ. "Have you finished filling your Convert card? Wave your cards. Welcome to Faith Tabernacle, God bless you". And for this among other reasons, they're arguably the most mentioned units by Preachers.

Ushers are somewhat similar and work hand in hand with Hospitality, these groups do not seem to talk at all, except "Welcome to Canaanland". Theirs is to pass around offering baskets to collect offerings, seeds and other financial obligations. After which it is passed onto head ushers. It's not unusual to see stone faced head ushers marching out of the auditorium with the big offering buckets, while CCU and Security clear the way for them to pass unbothered.

Protocol
Your name and testimony please
I haven't had a personal encounter with the protocol department but observing their strategic placements when called, they are to collate and compile the occasional multitude of testimonies according to relative relevance.

Shiloh, the annual convention where Living Faith Church members from allover the world gather to praise and worship God, the creator of all things, under the spiritual authority of Bishop David Oyedepo, concluded on Saturday with a memorable Impartation, along with prophetic Thanksgiving Sunday Service.

Asides God's special servant and mouthpiece, Bishop David Oyedepo, the 5day occasion was also immensely blessed by ministrations from other spiritual giants such as Bishop David Abioye, Bishop Thomas Aremu, Dr. Paul Eneche, David Ibiyeomie, alongside Pastor, Mrs. Faith Oyedepo and the youth oriented Pastor David Oyedepo Junior.
