The 54th anniversary and the maiden Consecration Thanksgiving of the Minister-in-Charge of New Jerusalem Zion Cherubim and Seraphim Church in Oporoza community, Gbaramatu Kingdom, Warri South-West Local Government Area of Delta State, Snr. Boan. Edward T. B. Ubebe, was celebrated with an explosive ministration from the Miyeinkirigbolomowei II of Zion Mission Worldwide, The King of Zion, His Holiness, Rt. Rev. Dr. Epistle Jemine JP+, on Sunday, March 16, 2025.

The presiding Bishop and revered spiritual leader who is the General Overseer of the C&S Church of Zion Int'l Inc., Bolowou National Headquarter, delivered an electrifying message that is centered on 'Grace' as a catalyst for God's Elevation, the theme of the programme, as well as embarked on deliverance in the course of his ministration.

The dual celebration had earlier began on Monday, March 10, 2025, with observance of morning and afternoon services where praises were offered to the Almighty God as well as prayers for the growth of the church, the Gbaramatu Kingdom, the Ijaw Nation and the country at large.

According to the Presiding Bishop, known as The King of Zion, God's Elevation, which is the upliftment of man by God, has two dimensions. One is the earning dimension exemplified by human works or efforts, and the other is 'Grace' dimension of elevation that springs forth from God's benevolence.

Reading from the Bible text of Psalm 113:7, Psalm 34:9-10, and 2 Pet.1:2-4, The King of Zion emphasized on 'Grace' as a catalyst for God's Elevation in life, and stressed on its importance towards attaining upliftment as demonstrated in the story of King David and Mephibosheth (2 Samuel 9:1-13) among other Biblical verses.

The Miyeinkirigbolomowei II led the congregation on prayers as well as uttered divine prophecies with blessings on the people and the land.

Earlier, The King of Zion, who had arrived the New Jerusalem Zion on the eve of the anniversary with his entourage, was given a grand reception as he made his entry into the church on Sunday with a trumpeter announcing the spiritual leader's arrival, in a scenario that reminds one of Jesus Christ entry into the city of Jerusalem.

Some of the ministers in attendance include Snr. Boan. Peter Ebieride German (JP), Snr. Boan. Dr. Amb. Nelson Ogelegbanwei (JP), Apst (Dr.) Mathias Amaye Zion, Apst. Roland Ojogun, Apst. Mike Ubebe Ph.D, among others.

The maiden Consecration Thanksgiving service marks the first year that the Minister-in-Charge, Snr. Boan. Edward T. B. Ubebe, has been presiding over the ministry.
