Tell us about vision /initiatives for members of your ministry and the public?
The vision of my ministry which is Innerlife circle Is to strengthen the bonds of families and to bring healing to the broken hearted.
How far has your programme Innerlife Circle been able to reflect on the aspirations of the participants?
Testimonies abound on the impact Innerlife circles has had on the lives of the participants. It would be impossible to recount them all in this short interview. But suffice it to say that We’ve been able to help restore broken homes, teach families to live together in love and peace and even teach singles and young people to maximize their time, living above habits to find fulfillment in life. These are real testimonies summarized..
How’s life as a pastor’s wife and being a mother of four?
Interesting and at the same time challenging. As a Pastor’s wife, demands are placed on me from the ministry fronts. I occupy roles as the church administrator, the head of the married team and I’m also a Branch Pastor. And as a wife and mother, demands are placed on me from the home fronts too; to take care of my husband and my children. But I am not complaining. God has been faithful.
Single parenting seems to be common these days. What are the likely causes of it and ways to be avoided?
One of the major causes of single parenting is when people are raised up in a dysfunctional parenting environment. It affects how they see and understand marriage. They grow up with this unhealthy perception of what a good marriage ought to be.
Secondly another cause is when people find it very difficult to manage their emotions so they get involved premarital sex. This naturally opens the door to so many ills including single parenting.
Ways to avoid single parenting is for those that grew up in a dysfunctional parenting environment to seek proper counselling sessions and attend special seminars on proper parenting so that they don’t make the mistakes their parents made. And secondly people should say no to premarital sex.
If not ministry, what would you have done?
I would probably have been a Professional Caterer.
Final words?
For the married, keep loving, for the single, prayerfully search and wisely choose.
