Sunday morning was a combined service of all the Abeokuta branch churches of Christ Ambassadors Holiness Church. They do this once a month on the first Sunday of each month. I am always glad when our visit corresponds with Holy Ghost Sunday.
First, we went to Children's Church for a bit. We had a great time with the children and passed out a little candy.
Then we entered the Holy Ghost Sunday service already in progress. There was a great crowd gathered, a great spirit and a great response to the Word of the Lord.

On Sunday evening they had no service. On Holy Ghost Sunday they linger into the afternoon and omit the service that night. I am sure that Bro. Shobanke could have scheduled me at another church, but we were glad to rest. We will be ministering six of the next seven days so the rest was appreciated.
We were back at the hotel by 3:00 PM and I spent most of the evening getting pictures emailed and loaded onto Mile Markers for posting. The wifi signal has been spotty and the power kicked a time or two.
We are having a great time with our dear friends in Nigeria. Thank you for praying for us and thank you for reading.
