To promote healthy living, the church conducted free medical outreaches with free medical examination/ diagnosis, counselling and treatment.

Adeniyi explained that as part of efforts to bring succour to the downtrodden in the society, the church offered cash gifts and free skill acquisition to widows, women and the youth.

He said the MFM Ondo State Mega Region 1 Akure had other spiritual programmes which had brought salvation, spiritual, emotional and physical healing to attendees while also transforming the nation economically.

One of the beneficiaries of the free fashion design training, a single mother, Onyinye Onu, stated that she had always desired to become a fashion designer but could not due to lack of fund to embark on the training.

Onu was one of 60 women who were trained in fashion designing and given free individual sewing machines and startup capital to kick-start their businesses.

Commenting, one of the programme’s instructors, a fashion design specialist, Pastor (Mrs) Olufunmilayo Oluwalonimi, said that the training and the lives it impacted gave her utmost joy.
