Giving back to the Society through the Church - RCCG takes the Lead

In line with her Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), the new creation chapel, Ajao, Lagos, over the weekend  put smiles on the faces of some of the residents of Oriba, Tagbati, Mayunre and Olorunsogo communities of Epe local government area.

The programme according to the parish pastor of the church, Pastor Igho Orienru, was in line with the mandate given by the general overseer of the church, Pastor Enoch Adeboye that the church must ensure implementation of projects within their locality to complement government’s efforts in providing basic amenities for the citizens.

He said that corporate social responsibility entails giving back to the society by adding value to the life of the people and not only blessing the people spiritually but also ensure that their physical life have a meaning.

“It was on this note that the new creation chapel came together for the first time to stage this year’s CSR to the rural people so that we can have a better impact on the unreached communities unlike previous years”.

Pastor Orienru pointed out that free medical care, foods, clothes and other items were distributed to the communities.

On the theme of the programme, “Reaching the unreached initiatives”, the pastor said that the church was continually reaching out to the rural communities that are yet to feel government impact and also planning to embark on community projects like providing clean water.
