Praise of His Glory Ministry International (C-PHGM), a group of volunteer professionals, has been supporting and mobilising resources for the wellbeing of missionaries and mission agencies in Nigeria.
Apart from full-time missionaries on its payrolls, the ministry commissioned in 2009, also donates support materials to mission agencies as well as the rural communities.
In less than a decade, it has made silent but remarkable progress in advancing the frontiers of mission works across Nigeria.
In 2011, it constructed a worship auditorium for Jesus Missions, Ikire-Ile community, Osun State. In 2012, the ministry donated five motor bikes to aid mobility in rural parts of Nigeria.
Based on the visible commitment of the ministry, it attracted more resources and did much more in 2013 by constructing water borehole for Bode-Osi community in Osun State.
It also donated a van to Jesus Missions, Bode-Osi before proceeding to Demo Geri, Niger state where it renovated a mission house for First Fruit Ministry.
Peace Child Academy, Tunga Basuna, Niger State also benefitted from the construction of classroom building by the ministry.
By 2014, the ministry completed two bedroom hostels for Tabitha Evangel Ministry, Miango, Plateau State. It proceeded to construct a 10-room hostel for GMB School of Missions, Gidan Ahmadu, Katsina State.
Last year, C-PHGM constructed water borehole for Christian Missionary Foundation; 4-bedroom hostel for Tabitha Evangel Ministry, Miango, Plateau State; worship centre for Jesus Missions, Ile-Ogo, Osun State and donated two motor bikes to missionaries in rural areas.
In 2016, it sponsored a farm project by Tabitha Evangel Ministry to mitigate feeding of 700 Internally Displaced Kids (mainly orphans). Five motor bikes have been provided to missionaries in remote areas while there is ongoing construction of a Mission House at Tugbudu community and PaikoBassa communities in Niger States.
Beyond supporting with resources, the ministry also carries out medical outreaches in at least eight to 10 communities in Osun state every year and two others in Niger state.
There is also the educational sponsorship for missionary children, which has seen two graduates already and 11 others in secondary and tertiary institutions. At the last count, over 33 missionaries/families are on monthly upkeeps of the ministry.
International president of the ministry, Pastor Isaiah Okanlawon, told our correspondent there is more to do in the nation.
“We feel privileged to have done a bit but there are many more lands to possess. There are many missionaries without support and resources.
“By the grace of God and help of our supporters, we shall reach them with then needed support.”
