Christ Generation Church members embark on long walk for peace
Members of the Love of Christ Generation Church, Cherubim and Seraphim on Saturday organised a 24.2-kilometre (km) walk in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
The founder of the Church, Rev. Mother Esther Ajayi, explained that the long walk was to herald the church conference organised to deepen peace and unity in Nigeria.
She said that the conference with the theme, “Celebrating the Unity of the Holy Spirit: Celebrate the Comforter” would be held on July 20.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported that the walk began with a 7.7 km trek from the Moshood Abiola National Stadium to Area 1.
From Area 1, the church members trekked for about 9.2 km to Eagle Square in Central Area before trekking for 7.3 km back to the national stadium.
Citing Psalm 133 and 1 Corinthians 12, Ajayi emphasised the importance of unity within the Christian community and humanity.
She urged all Christians to embrace one another in unity and love and stressed the need for people to love their neighbours as they would love themselves.
