Prophet Israel Oladele Ogundipe, the Shepherd-in-Charge of Celestial Church Of Christ (CCC), Genesis Global, has announced dates for the commencement of the Church’s annual power-packed harvest programme.

He stated that the programme, tagged ‘Harvest of Strange Favour’ is set to begin on Friday December 15, 2023 with a special encounter vigil/Night of Praise as usual.

Oluwaseun Fabiyi, media aide to the prophet, emphasised that all is now set for the life-transforming encounter in this year’s programme also expected to be unique due to the country’s economic downturn, requiring the supernatural hand of the Almighty God to work out strange possibilities for turning their mournings to laughter.

In a chat with newsmen, Fabiyi stressed that there are favours and unmerited ones and also there are favours that are strange. He said: “God has told Prophet Oladele to gather the people for strange manifestations of favour in all ramifications.”

He explained that the harvest programme would start with a Night of Praise vigil on Friday, followed by the Adults’ Harvest and thanksgiving service on Sunday at the Church auditorium at Alakuko, Lagos.

On what people should expect during the programme, Prophet Oladele, fondly called ‘Genesis’, pointed out that God’s acts of strange favours would be made manifest through men and by divine visitations in diverse forms.

He urged attendees to be expectant, adding that many gospel artistes had been scheduled to perform soul-lifting songs during the event.

These include Moji Daramola, Dare Oxygen, Apekeola, Bukola Ittah, Oluwa Segunfunmi 02, Moses Harmony, Rain, Engo and Bidemi Olaoba and others.
