This year’s GREATER WORKS conference of the
International Central Gospel Church (ICGC), comes off from Monday, July 31 to
Friday, August 4, 2023 at the ICGC’s Christ Temple East auditorium at Teshie in
Accra.
The church institutionalised “Greater Works”
from the words of Jesus Christ in the Biblical text in John 14:12 when He said:
"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do
he will do also; and greater works than these he will do".
The conference is, therefore, a call on
participants to go out after the five-day encounter and do greater works in all
aspects of their lives.
The Greater Works Conference can be traced back
to the various camp meetings organised by the church right from the mid-1980s
when the church was growing and getting established.
The annual flagship event of ICGC was officially
instituted in 1987 at the Baden Powell Hall, Accra, with an attendance of about
2,000 congregants.
Ministering this year alongside the General
Overseer, Ps Dr Mensa Otabil will be Ps Matthew Ashimolowo of Kingsway
International Christian Centre in the United Kingdom, Bishop Tudor Bismark of
Jabula New Life Covenant Church Harare, Zimbabwe and Dr Mike Okonkwo, the
Presiding Bishop of The Redeemed Evangelical Mission (TREM), Nigeria.
As a prelude to the great gathering of God’s
children and also to publicise it, the churches belonging to the ICGC fold have
declared all Sundays before the event a ‘Yellow Sunday’ meaning all congregants
wear a ‘T’ shirt of the ICGC that is yellow, to church.
