PRAYERS FOR THE HTWBC DELEGATION TEAM (pictured with Archbishop Prof. Chidiebere Ogbu)
We pray for our members who traveled to Abuja, Nigeria for the African Diaspora Union, where Pastor Cunningham is the keynote speaker.
We pray for the Delegation Team to be a blessing to everyone attending; Deliverance and Salvation to take place at the conferences; Safety, protection and peace, while in Nigeria; Everyone will remain in good health; That God will have His way; Unity and flexibility; Our Ministers - Rev. Greenlee, Rev. Allen, and Min. Jorel, as they minister at the conference, and Spiritual wisdom.
We lift Pastor Cunningham up in prayer, asking our Father to anoint him afresh and refill him as he pours out into the people and the land. We pray for restoration and strength when he feels weak. We pray God grants him wisdom, provide clarity, and increase his knowledge and understanding. We pray that he will preach with boldness and that his words will reach lost souls and renew Believers. We pray for his encouragement along the way, and that God will continue to bless the work He has given him to do.
Our final prayer: that everyone will be at peace throughout the trip and upon their return

ABOUT ABUJA
Abuja is the capital and sixth most populous city of Nigeria. Situated in the middle of the country within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), it is a planned city built mainly in the 1980s based on a master plan by International Planning Associates (IPA), a consortium of three American planning and architecture firms. The Central Business District of Abuja was designed by Japanese architect Kenzo Tange. It replaced Lagos, the country's most populous city, as the capital on 12 December 1991.
Background
Africa’s most populous country attained independence from Britain in 1960. Adoption of a new constitution in 1999 completed a peaceful transition to civilian rule. The government continues to face the daunting task of institutionalizing democracy and reforming a petroleum-based economy despite widespread corruption and crime.
