THE Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has ordained 10,720 Deacons, Deaconesses and Assistant Pastors. It has also announced the creation of 20 new Provinces, bringing their number to 160.<\/p>\n

   General Overseer of the church, Pastor Enoch Adejara Adeboye, disclosed this during the 61st convention of the church at Redemption Camp, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.<\/p>\n

   The yearly event, which draws thousands of worshippers from across the world, ends Sunday.<\/p>\n

   Speaking on \u2018Change\u2019, the theme of the event, Pastor Adeboye said: \u201cThe only way you can experience change in your life, nature, attitude and relationship with God is to accept the only way He has proffered, so that you can experience progress, fulfillment and enjoyment with Him eternally. Note, however, that the change will cut off so many things in your life including old friends. But be sure, God will give you new friends.\u201d<\/p>\n

   The cleric recalled his experience: \u201cBefore I became Born Again, I had a lot of friends. They would always branch at my house to enjoy the type of life we used to live. But as soon as I became Born Again, though they were still coming, initially, my offer would not satisfy them and they all ran away.  <\/p>\n

   \u201cBut look at you, the multitude of friends God has given me in their stead.  <\/p>\n

Therefore, you lose nothing when you give your life to Jesus and become His friend.\u201d<\/p>\n
