The atmosphere at Living Word of Faith Outreach Ministries International was electrifying as the highly anticipated 32nd edition of the “Life Transforming Encounter” revival and conference kicked off on Monday, September 10, 2024. Faithful believers from across all works of life flocked to the Faith Cathedral, located at 5&7 Victoria Street, Off Krootown Road, Freetown, as the powerful event, themed “No More Reproach,” commenced with fervent prayer, worship, and expectation.
This year’s Encounter promises to be nothing short of extraordinary, with God’s hand already moving mightily among attendees. The program, a yearly staple in the Christian community, has garnered national and international acclaim, becoming a beacon of hope and divine intervention for believers across Africa and beyond. Despite enduring the storms of the Rebel War, the Ebola epidemic, and the COVID-19 pandemic, this faith-filled gathering has stood strong, delivering lasting testimonies to the glory of God.
A Revival with Global Reach Faith Cathedral’s grand auditorium is filled with worshippers, but for those unable to attend physically, Encounter 2024 is being broadcast live on social media platforms including YouTube, Facebook, and the church’s website. This year’s Encounter promises to be life-changing, with evening revivals scheduled daily at 5:30 PM. The Church Growth & Leadership Conference will also take place from Wednesday, September 11, through Friday, September 13, starting at 9:00 AM each day.
As believers assemble to experience the move of God, the theme “No More Reproach” resonates powerfully in every session. “This is a time for breakthroughs, healing, and divine transformation,” declared Bishop Akintayo Sam-Jolly, General Overseer of Living Word of Faith Outreach Ministries International. “God is about to lift burdens and erase shame from the lives of His people.”
A Divine Gathering of Nations For over three decades, Encounter has drawn multitudes from various nations, a testament to the global impact of this spirit-filled event. Delegates from across Africa and beyond are once again in attendance, eager to receive spiritual nourishment and return home with miraculous testimonies. “This is a gathering where the presence of God meets the expectations of His people,” said Rev. Lady Veralina Sam-Jolly. “We are trusting God for a transformative experience that will reverberate across families, churches, and communities worldwide.”
A Call to Experience Divine Breakthrough The grand opening and official launch of Encounter 2024 took place on Tuesday, September 10, with a resounding call to believers to witness the mighty move of God. Bishop Akintayo and Rev. Veralina extended an open invitation to all, urging every soul hungry for a fresh touch from heaven to attend. “Your presence is highly coveted as we anticipate miracles, deliverance, and divine restoration during this transformative event,” the General Overseers declared.
Living Word of Faith Outreach Ministries International, grounded in the Word of Faith from Romans 10:8, continues to spread the message of hope, healing, and victory. Through this year’s Encounter, the ministry expects to see lives transformed, chains broken, and God’s people walking in freedom and purpose.
