What started as an event known to be organized by the Redeemed Christian Church of God to appreciate God’s mercies and faithfulness over the life of Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the General Overseer, has grown over the years to become a phenomenon that brings together Christians from everywhere and from all and any denominations to worship God in one accord.
