The Brotherhood of the Cross and Star (BCS) is demonstrating their commitment to helping those in need.
The religious organization is organizing a global initiative across all their locations to provide free food, clothing, and essential items to the poor and vulnerable.
This initiative which underscores their dedication to humanitarian efforts also marks the celebration of International Vegetarian Day.
BCS spokesperson, Patriarch Christ Shepherd, Dr. Amah Williams, highlighted during a press interaction on Monday that this humanitarian effort will extend beyond the BCS Headquarters to all Bethels, with measures in place to prevent overcrowding.
Dr. Amah mentioned that the free food distribution is part of the activities planned for the 2024 celebration of the Divine Manifestation of Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, which will take place at the World Headquarters, located at 34 Ambo Street, Calabar, Cross River State, from December 23 to December 31, 2024.
“BCS members will also visit orphanages and homes for the destitute, conducting activities to assist the less fortunate in various locations worldwide. This effort honours Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, which reflects his teachings and practices.”
Oracle Today reports that as part of the celebration, members will fast, engage in prison ministry in different states and nations, and remember the suffering and death of Jesus Christ for humanity on December 26, 2024, with these observances happening in all BCS Bethels.
The event will culminate on December 31, 2024, featuring a foot-washing ceremony for all Christ ambassadors by the Holy Father, a Biakpan language singing competition, BCS Art and Merit awards, global prayers, and the Father’s New Year message.
The BCS spokesman further emphasized that the solutions to the world’s problems can be found in the teachings of Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, as written in the Everlasting Gospels.
