Welfare Ministry, the humanitarian arm of the Mountain of Fire and Miracles (MFM), has lifted scores of members across the country with industrial sewing machines, grinding machines, deep freezers, cash gifts as well as other items to boost their businesses.
It also distributed free food and clothings to members at Easter .
The ministry, which recently concluded a free fish farming training for members, equipped trainees with starter packs to start their own businesses.
The arm constantly pays fees of brilliant children of deceased pastors as well as distribute free school bags to students across the country.
Head, Welfare Ministry, Pastor Seyon Faton, said the gestures form the initiative of the General Overseer of Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries worldwide, Dr. Daniel Olukoya, who wants to see that apart from the spiritual needs, the physical needs of the members are taken care of.
The spiritual needs, he continued, are met through different deliverance prayer programmes and Biblical teachings and Seminars organised by the church.
Apart from the spiritual needs, Faton said the Church believes in making physical impact on well-being of members, taking them out of poverty and making them financially independent through different free trainings and economic empowerment.
Faton stressed that the welfare ministry is focused on attending to needs of members irrespective of their tribes, sex , or academic qualifications.
He explained that the humanitarian arm of the Church pays hospital bills, house rents and training of members in their preferred skills, after which they are empowered with starter packs.

Through this Welfare Ministry by God’s Grace, we pay hospital bills of members, we pay school fees of indigent students, we give full scholarship to students from Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary institutions.
