Tochukwu Anaemenam becomes priest of God, ordained in Ogbaru

It was jubilation in Save the Lost Mission Iyiowa Odekpe, Ogbaru local government area, Anambra state when the District Superintendent Rev Tochukwu Anaemenam was ordained a priest of God in the order of Melchizedek.

Speaking on behalf of Amanuke Born Again Christian Association, Apostle Patrick Okafor said the new priest’s late father Aniemena Levi was the leader of the heathens who persecuted and suffered all born again Christians in the Amanuke and that he lived 133 years. He said he was happy his son today is a priest of God.

According to Apostle Okafor, Pentecostals in Amanuke saw hell in the hands of heathens in Amanuke, between 1990 to the year 2000 as they burnt the residence of Rowland Enukora, Elder Ezekiel Ekulide and Isaiah Nnanwuno who was leader of Amanuke brethren. They lost everything to the night (Osulu Abali) masquerade mayhem. He reminded that every born again movement started with Save the Lost Mission.

He informed also that Ezekiel volunteered his land to the Save the Lost Mission for their Church building which was later destroyed by night masquerade. He reminded that brethren gathered and prayed for every family in Amanuke to experience Jesus Christ, hence there was a serious revival in the community.

Foremost Amanuke lawyer, Barr Jonas Okolo asked the congregation to pray for the newly ordained , even as he asked him to embrace God’s calling since God called him and not to indulge in all distractions presently witnessed in the kingdom of God. He decried that there are many churches today but not Church of Christ and so many men of God but not of Christ.
Barr Okolo asked the newly ordained to look unto God in all sincerity by rejecting lies and falsehood and shun looking for power where none exists, but only from the God Almighty.

Evangelist Ifeanyi Okoye , Reverend Anene Chuma among others were among those who spoke at the ordination ceremony encouraging Rev Tochukwu to continuously embrace God in order to succeed in his ministry.
