The Lagos State Christian Pilgrims Welfare Board (LSCPWB) held a Thanksgiving Service on Thursday 9th April 2026 at the Chapel of Christ the Light, Alausa Ikeja, marking the successful 2025 General Pilgrimage to Israel and Jordan.
Returned pilgrims, officials, clergy and well-wishers gathered in worship. Pastor Ayobami Oyeniyi (Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, Region 5, Agege) preached that returning to give thanks signifies additional blessing, like one leper out of 10 whose healing was made whole as stated in Luke 17:11-19. Pilgrims' groups from both batches processed forward, dancing and offering gifts.
Board Secretary Dr. Okudero Gbolabo Omoniyi reported visits to sacred sites in Jordan and Israel, calling the exercise operationally, logistically and spiritually successful, and commending pilgrims’ conduct.
He thanked Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu and Dr. (Mrs.) Claudiana Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu; Deputy Governor Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat and Mrs. Oluremi Hamzat; NCPC Executive Secretary Bishop Prof Stephen Adegbite; Commissioner Hon. Olanrewaju Ibrahim Layode; Permanent Secretary Mr. Adewunmi Ogunsanya; Special Adviser Christian Matters Very Revd. Adebukola Adeleke and pilgrimage clerics and group leaders for their various support.
