Afolabi, a devoted Deeper Life Corps member, had been earnestly seeking God's guidance for a chance to touch lives in his community. As he poured out his heart in prayer, he received a clear directive from the Holy Spirit to extend invitations to his fellow corps members and prominent community leaders to attend the 2025 Global Family and Marriage Conference.
With a gracious demeanour and infectious enthusiasm, Afolabi connected with 20 corps members, sharing the conference's mission and objectives. He highlighted the significance of fostering resilient, faith-driven families and relationships, and underscored the benefits of participating in the event, set to take place from August 28 to August 31, 2025, at the Deeper Life Campground near Eyenkorin, Kwara State.
To his delight, all 20 corps members enthusiastically accepted the invitation, eager to gain valuable insights and practical wisdom on building strong, enduring families.
Afolabi's next endeavour was to reach out to influential figures in his community, including a monarch, a senior official at the National Youth Service Corps office, a government minister, a prominent entrepreneur, and the Deputy Governor's spouse. Through his sincere and humble approach, Afolabi was able to convey the conference's vision to these distinguished individuals, and remarkably, they all committed to attending.
The monarch appreciates the conference's emphasis on strengthening family ties, while the senior official values the focus on nurturing healthy relationships. The government minister recognizes the potential for the conference to positively impact families statewide, while the entrepreneur is inspired by the theme of cultivating prosperous, purpose-driven families. The Deputy Governor's spouse is touched by the conference's commitment to promoting wholesome, faith-based relationships.
As the conference draws near, Afolabi feels a deep sense of satisfaction, knowing that his willingness to follow God's leading has yielded a significant opportunity for impact. With Pastor Dr. W.F. Kumuyi and Pastor Adebiyi David at the helm, the 2025 Global Family and Marriage Conference promises to be a transformative experience, equipping attendees with practical wisdom and spiritual guidance to build strong, resilient families.
The presence of these influential individuals, alongside the 20 corps members, would enrich the conference and provide a platform for them to engage with others, fostering a ripple effect of positive change in their communities. Afolabi's story stands as a testament to the power of prayer, perseverance, and a genuine heart in making a lasting difference in the lives of others.
