PASTORAL AND SPIRITUAL REPORT FOR FOURSQUARE GOSPEL CHURCH, CITY OF CHAMPIONS, MARYLAND 2023/2024 CHURCH YEAR

“Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. 21 Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.” (Ephesians 3:20-21 NLT)

PREAMBLE

Glory to God in the Highest for His exceeding great manifestations in our lives and in our midst here in the City of Champions. For all He has done, all He has accomplished in and through our lives and for the mighty signs and wonders He has wrought, we give Him glory. He has blessed us as a family with an uncommon fellowship, community and union that is knitly bonded, intricately loving and deftly intentioned for the kingdom’s purpose.

What a year! What our hearts hoped for, what our voices yearned for, what fellowship cried for and what our eyes thirsted for has comes to pass. We have moved! Glory be to God in the highest. To the one who did it, who accomplished far above all we could ever ask or think. We bless your King of heaven and Lord of lords. By the grace of God this is the last report I will render of God’s doings in our former location as God has translated us to a greater place. Amen.

We cannot overemphasize the grace of God we enjoy as Champions because He showers us with His presence, daily loads us with His goodness, protects and preserves our lives and blesses us on every side. We have experienced miracles and answered prayers, His Holy Spirit leading us and guiding us, revealing the Fathers mind to us and constantly helping us in our Christian walk. We cannot merit this but again, it is all by His grace that we are the Champions we are today. Hallelujah.

Champions Heritage (Children Church)

Our Champions heritage continues to wax stronger and stronger with many children and babies added to the church in the past church year. We also experienced a unique impartation of the church in our community in the outgoing church year. Please see the church’s report for full details. Trusting God for greater impact in the incoming church year.

Online Services

Our Sunday Online Church on YouTube continued to wax strong. We give God praise. The value, quality and impact of the online church is so impactful and continues to position our church as a global community of saints. I want to commend the combined effort of our Outreach, Media, and Music Teams for the continued improvements in the online church and for the continued sustenance.

We also moved all our other online services/meetings – Bible Study, Prayer Meetings, Prayer on the GO, Pastors Committee meeting, Advisory Committee meetings, etc, to Google Meet in view of the challenges with Zoom platform and disruptions to service time. Such disruptions has been reduced to a minimum. The church also continues to express itself on other social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp.

Prayer Ministry

Our prayer meeting held consistently through the year online and will continued as same as we rebrand and reposition the church in its new facility with fresh inspiration on our program plans.

DUNAMIS Sunday

Dunamis Sunday was recalibrated to hold every other month where we do not have a youth focused special event, rather than it holding every month to proper channel our resources and capacities. It held in the church year as follows:

March 2024 – Theme: Excelling in Challenging Times

It was greatly affected by our focus and energy on the relocation project and plan.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

Advisory Committee

Meetings held as regularly as practicable in the outgone church year.

Other Church Units Meeting and Activities

Our units like the Jesus Lifters Music, Youth Ministry, Hosts/Hostesses, Outreach ministries, Welfare Unit, Drama Unit and Discipleship department carried out their various responsibilities within the church year to the glory of God. The FWI did not attend the annual June Rally while the CFM attended with the President and PY in attendance. We hope this New Year will mark a difference in the men and women’s group by God’s grace.

Church Assets and Acquisition

During this church year, the City of Champions acquired the following major equipment to the glory of God:

- 1 HP PolyStar AC Wall Unit

- Twin Marque Building with 7 Toilets at 2, Adeoye Adeyemi Street, Wasimi, Maryland

Pastorate

The pastoral council as constituted held statutory meeting every first Thursday of the Month preceding the first Sunday to pray and plan for the month in focus. The meeting held consistently to the glory of God and was moved to a Physical meeting toward the end of the church year.

We also had a major reorganization of the leadership structure of the church with the appointment of Pastor Tope Ajijola as the Head of Administration for the church and Chairman of the Pastorate Council to drive the needed innovation, positioning, planning and execution as the City of Champions transitioned to a Grand Assembly.

Baby Naming, Child Dedication

We had 2 baby naming ceremony and Baby Dedication in the family of the Adekoya’s, and the Oladapo’s, in the course of the church year 2023-2024 and many more babies are on the way in Jesus name.

Weddings

Last year we celebrated the wedding of Pastor Samson and Sis. Tosin Olasunkanmi on August 12, 2024. We are trusting God to give us more this new church year in this new and beautiful facility. I do not know about you, I am looking forward to the first wedding we will host here amongst us and it will be yours in Jesus name.

We experienced an increase in all our major indices (Worship, Sunday School, Intercession Service and Bible Study Series) in the last church year expect for Home Fellowship that recorded a nil result throughout the year. Unfortunately, the trend has not changed as the Community Groups are not submitting reports. We implore the coordinator to take reporting as essential as not reporting activities indicates no activity is happening.

Water Baptism, Holy Spirit Baptism and Divine Healing had some input in the past church year but needed concerted effort to achieve results in this very important church growth dynamics is important as we transition from Sunday School to the Grand Assembly Academy.

From the above three things are clear for us to improve/deliberate on:

- The Outreach Team strategy, especially in the children church continues to provide needed growth to the church.

- Online Church also improved our attendance.

- The Discipleship Ministry has a lot of improvements to implement in this new church year.

Measures to continuously improve and focus on initiatives to drive our church growth will be our ongoing discuss.

CONCLUSION

If not for the grace of God, we would not have come this far. We are grateful for His grace, sufficiency, in all things and at all times in the City of Champions now Grand Assembly.

Permit me to conclude by expressing with all my heart how much I love and appreciate every worshipper, member, worker, leader and Pastor in the City of Champions for their commitment, doggedness, and Sacrifice for the business of the kingdom we are carrying on in the Youth Church. I will not take for granted the mercy God showed me to deserve an awesome family and friends as you have been to me and my family in the past church year and indeed our existence as a church which is now our home. I appreciate the relentless spirit of my Assisting, Associate and In-training Ministers, and the advisory committee members even in the face of challenges and my ever so demanding expectations. Please bear me to step away from the norm to acknowledge and celebrate Deacon Tolu Olubajo. God has positioned him as a gift for us to see to the project. Himself and all members of the Project team deserve a standing ovation and a round of applause to the glory of God.

I must not fail to celebrate the undying love, sacrifice and encouragement of our own First Lady and my dear wife, best friend, Sis. Ifeade Adebiyi and for especially allowing and heartily welcoming our church into our home, and for constantly been a sounding board of wisdom and counsel to me as I continue this responsibility of Chief Servant here at the Grand Assembly Maryland City of Champions. Let me also appreciate our daughter, Lilybeth Ireayomide for continuing to add unstoppable blessing and joy to our home in this outgone church year.

Above all, I give glory, honour and praise to our Saviour and Master who Himself has called us and appointed us as co-labourers with Him. It is my sincere and earnest prayer that the grace of God will not reduce in our lives as we continue to toil and serve the Master’s purpose in this field of souls. Remain rapturable above all else. I celebrate you all.

Grand Assembly Maryland – Leadership. Excellence. Love. Integrity

Shalom. Maranatha.

Pastor Oluyinka Adebiyi
