INTERNATIONAL PRESS CONFERENCE OF THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION OF GREATER EVANGELISM WORLD CRUSADE
INTERNATIONAL PRESS CONFERENCE OF THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION OF GREATER EVANGELISM WORLD CRUSADE HOLDING ON MONDAY, 8TH AUGUST 2022 AT THE WORLD HEADQUATERS, RUKPOKWU, RIVERS STATE, NIGERIA.
PRESS BRIEFING BY THE INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR OF GREATER EVANGELISM WORLD CRUSADE, PASTOR ISAAC V. OLORI.
I want to welcome members of the press and the public to this International Press Conference organized by the Ministry of Greater Evangelism World Crusade to address the world as regards its 50th Anniversary Jubilee celebration.
Greater Evangelism World Crusade was founded on Saturday, 9th September 1972 during an all night prayer meeting in Port Harcourt, the Capital City of Rivers State, Nigeria. The name, the logo, and the motto (To Know Jesus and to Make Jesus Known) were all given by the Lord through a vision. Amid much persecution, opposition and difficulties, the Ministry pioneered indigenous Pentecostal evangelism in old Rivers State (now Rivers and Bayelsa States) of Nigeria in the early 1970s.
The Founder and Pioneer International Director, Apostle Geoffrey Dabibi Numbere (1944-2014) was born again on Sunday, 11 May 1969 at the University of Ife, Ibadan Campus (now Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria) where he was then a student of Geology. On 3 March 1970, he received the call of God for full-time service through a Vision in which the Lord Jesus Christ took him up to three heavens and showed him crowds and crowds of perishing souls, with faces on the ground. The Lord commissioned him to go and lift the faces of those people to look up to Him and be saved. For these years, the thrust of Greater Evangelism World Crusade has been the virtually inaccessible Eastern Delta Region of Nigeria, reaching the unreached for Jesus Christ by taking the glorious gospel to the downtrodden, underprivileged, and forgotten people of the numerous islands and villages and those in the cities and towns of old Rivers State (now Rivers and Bayelsa States). By God's grace, the Ministry has spread to various parts of Nigeria, Africa, the United Kingdom and USA. Greater Evangelism World Crusade has affected many lives, leading thousands, and thousands of people to salvation through Christ Jesus.
In addition to preaching, we had published several Christian literatures and literary documentation of the history of the Ministry which has provided knowledge of indigenous church history. The landmarks on the history of the Ministry have just be updated by the wife of the Founding International Director.No description available.
The Ministry had a transition of leadership upon the home going of the Founding International Director Apostle G.D. Numbere in 2014. I, Pastor Isaac Olori was inaugurated as the International Director of the Ministry on Sunday 14th December 2014.
The Ministry has been transformed through the restructuring of her operational modalities for sustained growth and expansion capabilities in all the National and Foreign Missions. We have extended the frontiers of the television ministry through the platform of the Caught Up Television(CUTV) which is reaching many more souls in line with our Vision. In the same vein, the Ministry had enriched the devotional literature of Christians and non-Christians alike through the quarterly Greater Height Devotionals materials.
To Reach Everyone, Everywhere With The Glorious Gospel Of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
To Know Jesus, and To Make Jesus Known.
1. Preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to all Nations
2. Teach people how to make Heaven by maturing them in faith and teaching them to live a
Christ-like life
3. Care for the total man through rural evangelism and community services.
SIGNIFICANCE OF 50TH JUBILEE
And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a Jubilee for you; and each of you shall return to his possession, and each of you shall return to his family. Leviticus 25:10 Attaining fifty years is a major milestone in the life of any person or group of persons. In scriptures, the year of Jubilee, which came every 50th year, was a year of releasing God's people from their debts, releasing all slaves, and returning property to who owned it (Lev. 25:1-13). It afforded everyone the chance to start the Jubilee year with a clean slate; as everyone was released from debt and slavery, and everyone had the privilege of entering into rest,
God's rest. Some of the specific benefits of the Jubilee year include:
1. It was the year of atonement; the offender was forgiven irrespective of the offense.
2. It brought about restoration. Everything that was lost was sure to be restored, debts were forgiven, slaves and the oppressed were declared free.
3. It was a season of reconciliation between people and families and reconciling of people to God.
4. It was a year of rest and acknowledgment of God's provision. God proved to His people that He was their ultimate provider.
The takeaways of Jubilee are still very much relevant today. While the children of Israel had to wait every seven years or fifty years to experience their release from slavery and servitude, today we can experience our spiritual Jubilee every day and every moment. Jubilee was foreshadowing the work of the cross. The sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross provides the basis of Jubilee today.
Through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, He made provision for the relief of all spiritual debts and our slavery to sin. As we commemorate this spiritual milestone as a Ministry, our desire and task are to awaken the public to the Jubilee that Christ has accomplished for humanity.
ESSENCE OF THE CELEBRATION
We are celebrating our 50th Jubilee in appreciation to God who gave this Vision and sustained it till this time. In view of the myriads of challenges and oppositions faced, only God could have brought us to this point. He has been our help in ages past and He is our hope for years to come.
As a Ministry, even with the home going of our Founding International Director, we have remained focused, reenergized, intact, and connected with the passion of fulfilling the mandate. We are also utilizing this celebration to renew our commitment to the Vision the Lord gave to us to lift the faces of people to look up to Him for their salvation through the preaching of the true Gospel.
Greater Evangelism World Crusade is God's rescue boat to deliver people from the bondage of the devil by declaring the truth of the Gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. This we will do consistently as the Lord grants enablement because staying focused on this mission will afford us the opportunity to reenact our next phase as a Ministry.
IMPACT OF THE VISION OF GEWC TO THE SOCIETY
Over the years, the Ministry of Greater Evangelism World Crusade has been mightily used by God to bring salvation and light to many people and communities. Greater Evangelism pioneered indigenous Pentecostalism in Rivers and Bayelsa states through its Gospel campaigns and outreaches of the 70's and 80's. Those were the periods when whole communities were under the darkness of idolatry and satanic bondages. Greater Evangelism was God's instrument to deliver thousands and thousands of people from the slavery of sin and the devil. Our Founding International Director, Apostle Numbere and his team confronted the demons, darkness, and evil traditional practices of those days and won the victory for the Kingdom of God.
Also, this Ministry was a vanguard to awaken the churches of those days from their slumber and cold religious nominalism and formalism. Apostle Numbere and his team saturated the city of Port Harcourt and its environs with the true gospel of Christ in the most charismatic manner with boldness and courage and turned the city upside down with their brand of "born-again" messages. Their preaching positively influenced the society and won many souls for God. Indeed, generations of believers have been raised through the Vision of this Ministry.
As a Ministry, we have invested not only preaching the true gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ but also in defending the purity of the gospel as given by Jesus Christ and His apostles. The menace of false prophets and teachers with false and/or half-truth are always present, but we are unrelenting in our resolve to contend for the faith by bringing to the fore the errors. The Ministry was and is still known for this and it is a tradition that will be maintained by every generation of this Ministry.
The Ministry was in the forefront of the advocacy of dismantling all forms of idolatry in the old Rivers State (now Rivers and Bayelsa States) as expressed in their monuments. This was achieved through the doggedness of the Ministry.
Permit me to also emphasize the role Greater Evangelism World Crusade played in the salvation and spiritual development of the youths. Most of the first adherents of the message preached by Apostle Numbere were the youths and teenagers. These young ones were caught for Christ at an early stage and were great instrument in the hands of the Lord and blessings to the society rather than being nuisance to society. We make bold to say that there is hardly any Christian Ministry in Nigeria where you will not have a member that has be impacted by GEWC. In the same vein, the Ministry impacted several university campuses through the ministration of Apostle Numbere and
presently, our campus Ministry, Greater Evangelism Campus Crusaders (GECC) is promoting values of righteousness among the student and staff population in many higher institutions in Nigeria and some African Countries.
The impact is huge despite the cost to reach out to the youths of that generation and present to save them from eternal damnation and make them better citizens. Our social responsibility in education is worthy of note, we have established schools with minimal charges for children of both the poor and well-to-do in various parts of the Country. The quality of these children in terms of academics and morals are phenomenal.
We are a mission that cares for the total man as captured by our Mission Statement. For these fifty years of our existence, the Ministry has carried out other social interventions and community services to reach out to the deprived, hurting, and downtrodden.
The Ministry had always been faced with several societal challenges, at the beginning, we were confronted with idolatry, ungodly traditional practices, ignorance, etc. Presently, the society is inundated with new and complicated vices such as but not limited to:
1. Security Concerns of kidnapping, armed bandits, ritual killings, armed robbery, etc
2. Negative Internet activities and associated fraud
3. Cultism and violent gangs in neighborhoods and communities
4. Youthful lust which is copiously expressed in acts and art of pornography
5. Drugs and substances addiction
6. Unemployment
7. Psychological and socially induced depression
8. Increased false and heretic teachings in different forms and styles
9. Religion without Transformation
10. Dealing with the Information Age
We are poised to confront these societal challenges which indirectly affect the Church through our renewed commitment to preach the truth of God's Word and raise advocacy to the political leaders to rise to the demand of governance in the Country and various states of the Nation.
WHERE ARE WE GOING? – NEXT PHASE
The Ministry of GEWC is set to enter her new phase through concerted activities geared toward reversing the ugly trends in the society and remaining relevant to the new generation. The next phase of the Ministry will have the following engaging activities and operations:
Strategic Evangelism and Mission Outreaches through Crusades in Cities and Communities to raise the spiritual consciousness of the people.
Focusing on the young ones (Youths and Teenagers) through concerted discipleship programme and leadership capacity to raise godly leaders for the future.
Full deployment of Hybrid (In-Persons and Virtual) Congregation in our Church structure and activities to enhance the dissemination of the Gospel to the nations of the world.
4. Increased literature evangelism through the promotion of the Ministry's Publications and materials in all available global platforms.
GEWC 50TH ANNIVERSARY PROGRAMME
To commemorate our 50th Anniversary Jubilee celebration, we have lined up several impactful programmes which will culminate in the week of our Anniversary (4th to 11th September 2022). These programmes begun in earnest with the "Divine Visitation" Crusades held in Rivers (Bonny, Ahoada, Bori, Port Harcourt) and Bayelsa states. These crusades were organized to win souls for God and renew the Ministry in a core aspect of its vision which is soul winning.
Also, there was the Anniversary Mega Rally which took place on Sunday, 31st July 2022 in Port Harcourt and other major cities where GEWC is represented. Indeed, it was colourful and joyous procession to sound the trumpet of our 50th Jubilee and create public awareness of the Ministry and the Anniversary.
Highlights of some of the events of the Anniversary week are:
1. Opening Ceremony and Musical Concert ǀ Sunday September 4, 2022, ǀ GEWC World Headquarters, Rukpokwu, Rivers State.
2. Colloquium, Documentary and Public Lecture ǀ Tuesday September 6, 2022, ǀ Faculty of Law Auditorium, Rivers State University, Port Harcourt.

First Impressions: Dagashi Kashi
By "Big Sister" Rii | Anime, First Impressions, TV | 01 February 2016 | 2 Comments
Title (English): Dagashi Kashi
Title (Japanese): だがしかし
Animation Studio: feel.
Genres: Comedy, Shounen
Episodes: 4/?
Learning about another country can be pretty interesting, especially if the culture of the country is entirely different from your own. People can have so many different ways of thinking about one particular topic from the most important of laws, to the simplest ways to live every day life. Food can change from one region to another, and how one country uses a particular ingredient can be entirely different from how another country uses it. In Japan's case, you have snacks like raspberry-flavoured Kit-Kats, and ramen-flavoured chips. Japanese snacks are at the core of Dagashi Kashi, a show about Japanese candy, and a couple of teens in the candy business.
Dagashi means "cheap candy" in Japanese, and the anime follows Kokonotsu Shikada (called Coconuts by his friend Saya), an aspiring manga artist living with his dad, who owns a small candy shop in a rural Japanese town. His dad wants him to take over the candy shop when he gets older, but Kokonotsu wants nothing to do with the store. His family has owned the small store for generations, so his father wants the store to carry on. One day, the store gets a visit from Hotaru Shidare, the daughter of a major candy manufacturer. She has come to learn more about selling candy from Kokonotsu's dad, who is famous for his eccentric attitude and sales. She wants Kokonotsu's dad to join her in her dad's company, but Kokonotsu's dad will only do it if Kokonotsu takes over the store. Hotaru makes it her mission to convince Kokonotsu to give up on his manga artist dream and run the candy store instead.
I started Dagashi Kashi a little late; I only started watching it around the end of last week. By the time I started watching it, there was already a bit of excitement about it in some of the anime communities I follow, so I went into it with higher than normal expectations. Unfortunately, it hasn't met those expectations. That's not to say I'm not having fun watching it however. If anything, the anime gives insight into the candy business of Japan, or at least when it comes to dagashi.
One of the most fun things about the anime is Hotaru. It's interesting to see someone so into something as simple as candy, how passionate she is about the entire art of making it, and its history. She's the example of showing how someone can have an interest in anything, and be incredibly knowledgeable about it. She makes a good part of this show enjoyable due to her eccentric nature, and she stands out among some of the other characters. The other characters aren't exactly charismatic, as they're mostly the stereotypes we see in anime a lot. Personally, I feel nothing for the characters except for Hotaru at the moment.
The placebo effect is a powerful thing.
The art style is taking me a bit of time to get used to. It's a bit odd for me to see big eyeballs, but small pupils. It may just be me watching too much moe. Other than the eyes, everything else looks good. The rural Japanese town setting is a nice change from the cities.The animation as of right now is nothing special, but it's not bad either. It does its job for a simple anime like this.
Ayana Taketatsu is a voice actress I would like to hear more often. Unfortunately, she doesn't do these slice of life-like anime very often. The last anime role that she had that I had actually watched was Kantai Collection last winter season. So it's a pleasure to hear her voicing Hotaru here. Atsushi Abe voices Kokonotsu and he's been around the block more than a few times. Both the OP and ED don't really do it for me. I could honestly skip them and not notice. I personally don't find anything particularly interesting about the songs they use. The soundtrack of the anime itself is likewise subdued, but it's understandable given the setting.
I don't really have too much else to mention about Dagashi Kashi. Unless a story pops up later on, or the characters get more interesting and develop more, this could basically be my review. I'm not sure why this isn't labelled as a slice of life as it basically is one at this point. Even then, I've seen better ones. I'm going to keep on it just to learn more about dagashi, and to see more of Hotaru's antics. Those two things help make this anime fun, and hopefully it continues.
Thoughts on Dagashi Kashi anyone? Let's see your opinion in the comments!

The Female Solution: Is Your Ego Preventing You From Reconciling With Your Ex?
Are you ending a relationship because neither of you will apologize? Often our relationships could last if we could just be humble enough to admit being at fault and strive to make amends. If you find yourself going from one broken relationship to another, if you are in and out of marriages, if you are tired of being an "ex" perhaps its time to examine a pattern of behavior. Were the reasons for your breakup really that bad or did one or both of you simply refuse to give in? Do you still love the person you left? Do you believe they still love you? What would it take to reconcile? Our relationship advisors Imam Karriem Hameed and Sister Munirah Habeel take a look at the ego and the role it plays in making people too stubborn to make amends after an argument. Later, Familly Law Attorney Wendelin DeLoach joins us to share some common situations she has observed during divorce court cases. With a little bit of counseling, can our marriages be saved?


MILAN – Massimo Zanetti Beverage Group announces the opening of a new Puccino's Coffee Bar at the Railway Station in Eastbourne, a busy seaside town in East Sussex, UK.
Puccino's at Eastbourne has been designed to provide passengers with a quick and efficient service whilst on the go. Eastbourne Station is highly frequented with an average footfall of about 3.6 million passengers per year.
The new unit will be operated by Mr and Mrs Joy, franchisee partners already managing Puccino's coffee Bar at Weybridge Railway Station.
"I am delighted to announce the opening of our latest franchised coffee bar, with Franchisees Mark and April Joy. This is their second cafeteria, with further two openings planned shortly" says Tony Brogden, Managing Director of Puccino's.


Microsoft Access 2010 continues to provide support for VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) code, which is the programming language built into most of the Office 2010 programs, including Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint. Arguably, VBA code provides the Office application developer with the most flexible and extensible tools built into Office 2010. You can use VBA code to create almost any functionality imaginable, but it comes at a cost. The VBA language is fairly complex, and learning to write code and build high-quality programs often requires a tremendous amount of time and effort. Just learning the language and how to make it work in your application can be quite a daunting task for the novice Access user.
Although this lesson provides a brief overview of adding code to Access forms, Lessons 51 through 57 of this book are devoted to providing much more information about the VBA programming language. This lesson discusses building forms that utilize VBA code and provides some very basic examples of how to embed VBA code in forms using Access 2010.


Scabies, or mange, is a skin disorder caused by a mite called Sarcoptes scabiei. The mites burrow into the dog's skin to lay eggs and can cause intense itching and allergic reactions. The mite is transferred from dog to dog, and your dog can easily contract scabies from another infected pet. The good news is that the scabies mite that infects dogs typically does not prefer human hosts, and most scabies infections in humans results from human to human transmission. Do as thorough a job as possible when cleaning up after you have rid the scabies from your dog.
Clip the dog's coat short and bathe the dog with a benzoyl peroxide shampoo and apply a dip or topical treatments such as amitraz and selamectin. Apply scabies treatments to infected dogs consistently and according to directions until all signs of infection are gone.
Vacuum carpets, furniture, drapes and mattresses thoroughly and install a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter to help prevent airborne allergens caused by mite particles. Mop floors twice daily with hot water and a cap full of bleach or vinegar.
Apply gloves when handling laundry and infected bedding, and wash all materials in hot water that is at least 120 degrees Fahrenheit for at least 10 minutes and dry completely at high heat. Covering mattresses and upholstered furniture with plastic coverings can help prevent re-infestation of mites and reduce allergens produced by mites.
Seal structural entry points in your house, such as gaps around the foundation, doors, windows and vents, with polyurethane caulking or simply by filling the gaps with steel wool. Maintaining a plant-free border around the foundation of your house will help to decrease mite populations.
Control the moisture level in your home to discourage mite re-infestation. Mites are subject to desiccation at less than 50 percent humidity. In high humidity areas such as the bathroom or basement, it may be helpful to use a dehumidifier.
Place non-washable materials such as shoes, coats and stuffed animals in plastic and isolate them in a warm area or place such items in a large freezer for 12 hours.
After vacuuming your mattress, flip it over before using it. If there are any mites still alive, they will not be as close to you and may die before they can burrow through the mattress.

The Sale of Transportation
The Sale of Transportation.
There is, no doubt, a good deal of difference between selling, say a bar of soap, and selling railway travel. In their essentials, however, both tasks have much in common. In almost every business transaction salesmanship holds an all-important place, and in the railway world there is certainly tremendous scope for the development of improved salesmanship.
In Britain, the railways are this year devoting vast attention to this vital problem. In the campaign for improved salesmanship a big part is being played by the interesting of the staff generally in the employment of courtesy and pleasing manners; by improved canvassing machinery and a reorganisation of the working in the publicity offices scattered throughout the country; and by more scientific advertising of every kind. Railway workers of all grades now appreciate how closely interlinked are their own personal interests and those of the railway management. Individual employees are to-day, entirely on their own initiative and without thought of additional pay, doing much in their leisure hours to gain the goodwill of the public, thereby bringing valuable business to rail and consolidating their own positions. This is an especially happy state of affairs. It augurs well for the future of the Home lines, for with every employee acting as a keen canvasser for rail transport within his own immediate circle of friends and acquaintances, success becomes certain.
With road competition conducted on such keen lines, the need for personal interest on the part of every individual employee in the securing of traffic to rail has become very real. Phenomenal indeed is the progress of road transport in Britain. Many single road transport undertakings to-day thoroughly cover page 19 territory as extensive as that served by the larger individual railways prior to grouping, and the lesson is there for every railwayman to read.
As I dictate this letter, there lies before me a copy of the current issue of the public time-book published by one typical road transport undertaking specialising in passenger movement. This particular concern operates 120 distinct services, covering 1,250 route miles, and tapping towns and villages with a population of four million people. There are 224 pages in the book, which is sold at twopence per copy. Five pages are devoted to a list of services, and there then follow 22 pages giving a very complete alphabetical index of places served. The detailed time-tables occupy 121 pages, while the closing portion of the book embraces fares lists, rules and regulations, a handy calendar, information as to markets and early closing days, and a free insurance coupon against accidents when travelling. Perusing a publication such as this, one readily realises the remarkable ramifications of the presentday road carrying organisation. Small wonder that the three big railway unions-the National Union of Railwaymen, the Railway Clerks' Association and the Amalgamated Society of Locomotive Engineers and Firemen-have at last joined forces with the railway managements in their efforts to put the business of road transport upon a fair competitive basis.


Today's reading tells the beautiful story of how GOD redeemed sinful man from the sentence of spiritual death, how grace works, the Christian's responsibility to live a holy life, and promises that we have as a result of life in Christ. Rather than summarizing the message, I will instead select specific verses which tell the story.
25 He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification. 1 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God.
6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him!
5 For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. 6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin— 7 because anyone who has died has been set free from sin. 8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.
22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? ... 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? ... 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Amen! Rejoice in the truth of GOD's plan of salvation. Submit to the call of Christ. Be buried into the likeness of His death so that you may be "in Christ".

Trump proposes an application fee for asylum-seekers

UN refugee agency 'deeply concerned' about US asylum
Trump moves to limit eligibility for Central American asylum-seekers
Pelosi defends laws allowing migrants to seek asylum from home country
White House rips judge for blocking Trump's plan to detain asylum seekers
President Trump announced measures to overhaul an asylum system in crisis, including limiting people from working in the United States until their cases are heard.
In a presidential memorandum he signed Monday, Trump proposed charging a fee to apply for asylum in an effort to blunt the flow of migrants coming across the border from Mexico.
The asylum-seekers would also be charged a fee for employment-authorization applications. No work permits would be granted before the applications are approved.
