T<\/strong>he Celestial Church of Christ Clergy Welfare Insurance Scheme<\/strong> is a scheme conceived to provide succour and ameliorate the poor living conditions and health concerns of aging and ailing Shepherds and elderly church workers within the Celestial fold. The scheme is designed to ensure that Shepherds and church workers are not left in the lurch and indeed have something to fall back on when difficult days come. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Statistics show that many Shepherds and Church Workers have paid the ultimate price with their lives due to lack of proper medical care<\/strong> when sickness comes calling. Many have run from pillar to post seeking financial assistance which remains elusive when most needed. The end result? Avoidable and untimely deaths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The C.C.C. Clergy Welfare Committee<\/strong> with arrow heads like Venerable Superior Evangelist J.O. Olabode, Senior Evangelist Sunday Sofowora (Sharon), Senior Evangelist Oludare Abolurin <\/em><\/strong>et al,<\/em> has been driving this Group Insurance Scheme, <\/strong>which is available for an affordable premium of N24,000 (twenty four thousand naira only)<\/em> per annum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Representatives of the Clergy Welfare Committee<\/strong> have travelled round the country to mobilise members of Celestial Church Clergy to join this laudable Group Insurance Scheme<\/strong>. The mobilisation drive has taken the committee to various States, Divisions and Provinces. Unfortunately, there has been an undesirable apathy an the part of the clergy to join the scheme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A very pathetic case was that of Divisional Head who distributed 250<\/em> Group Insurance forms to the clergy under his jurisdiction without filling a form for himself. He died without any benefit accruing to his family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His Eminence, Reverend Emmanuel Mobiyina Oshoffa<\/em><\/strong>, Pastor and Spiritual Head of the Celestial Church of Christ Worldwide, has thrown his full weight behind this Group Insurance Scheme<\/strong> by directing all parishes to remit 5% <\/em>of their incomes before sharing to the Welfare Account.<\/strong> Unfortunately, only a few parishes have complied to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The irony is that many clergy men and women complain bitterly when they don’t get assistance from the committee, yet they fail to subscribe to the scheme. please note that the policy of the scheme is that those who fail to subscribe to the scheme cannot benefit from other people’s common wealth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, we shall publish a list of parishes that have complied with the 5% remittances and also the names of those who have benefitted from the scheme.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
