Washington DC's Annual Special February Month
By Ruth Oni
Who says prayer isn’t hard work? It sure is! But how thankful we are that God is always faithful to attend to the prayers of His people! February was a special month: beside the commemoration of Black History, it was also our dedicated month of prayer and each week the saints of God went all out in persistent, prevailing prayer. On Monday and Friday nights we gathered at church for collective prayer, while Tuesdays through Thursdays a telephone prayer conference, which was established for this purpose, enabled us to join our voices in prayer to God. We can look back and thank God for the snowstorm of 2010 because our phone-in prayer meeting was born during that unforgettable blizzard! More!

Hunger That Challenge Us - Lucky Adike
By Blessing Mbang
The Washington DC congregation was blessed to have in our midst a wonderful young man whose hunger in seeking the Lord challenged all us. Brother Lucky Adike arrived in the United States in the summer of 2006 as a student at Howard University. Unbeknown to him, God had also placed a saved young lady at the same school. She gave Brother Lucky an invitation to church and he accepted. Sunday to Sunday the word penetrated and eventually Brother Lucky asked God for forgiveness and was beautifully saved, sanctified and baptized with the Holy Spirit. More!
