It was jubilation galore at the weekend as members of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), including well-wishers across the globe gathered to celebrate God’s faithfulness and grace upon the church at a second thanksgiving anniversary.

The event was to commemorate reopening of the ministry after the passing of its founder, Prophet Temitope Joshua (T.B. Joshua) on June 5, 2021, and to celebrate the works of God under the leadership of Pastor Evelyn Joshua.

The colourful event witnessed huge turnout of members, well-wishers, guest artistes and guests from all over the world, with an array of kaleidoscopes of group members in scintillating colours of different attires.

The elated Evelyn Joshua, dressed in simple but elegant pink attire in her speech, expressed gratitude to God, ministers and members of the church who have stayed with the church, even in time of challenges. She promised that the church’s new administration would continually strive to preserve the legacy of the church’s founder.

“The legacy of Prophet T.B. Joshua shall live forever,” she said.

Quoting from Psalms 107:1, Pastor Joshua enjoined the people to give thanks to God, “for He is good and His mercy endureth forever”.

She also expressed gratitude to Emmanuel TV Partners for their support.

Highlighting various activities undertaken by the SCOAN in the year, Pastor Joshua mentioned special meetings at The Prayer Mountain, outreaches in Ghana, Spain, Zambia and Kenya, and numerous charity events in Spain, Turkey, Malawi, Ukraine, Kenya and other parts of the world. The woman of God also commended the different groups in the church for their faithfulness and steadfastness making the church move forward in God’s grace.

High-profile Gospel artiste, Christina Shusho from Tanzania, performed at the SCOAN. Shusho sang in Swahili, the popular southern and east African tongue, to the excitement of the mammoth audience.

Guest artiste, Akintayo Akinwande, performed a medley of Nigerian praise songs while SCOAN youth deployed choreography to offer a dance offering to God and to illustrate a message by Prophet T.B. Joshua.

The congregants also watched clips highlighting God’s goodness in various amazing dimensions.

The creme de la creme from all walks of life, including Bishop Michael Fleming of Church On The Street, a charity based in the United Kingdom, graced the thanksgiving service.
