Sister Angelina Nyewene and Sister Amadi Jubilee, who are both widows, bore their testimonies and shared life experiences of how they have been able to move on since the death of their husbands. They both testified of the power of prayer and how being self-reliant has blessed their lives and then encouraged the other sisters to move on.
President Frederick Ndah Igwe expressed his love to all the sisters assuring them that they are not alone. They should remain steadfast in all they do and pay their tithes just like the widow's mite for them to receive the Lord’s blessings.
