Johannesburg, South Africa—IAPD-Africa held Africa Spiritual Day in Johannesburg, South Africa on February 12, 2023. It was a highly successful event that brought together people from all over Africa and beyond. The event was broadcast in three languages and attracted over 2,388 participants who were connected live during the event. The social impact of the event was impressive, with more than 341,886 impressions on the IAPD social media platforms.
One of the most notable aspects of the Africa Spiritual Day was the fact that it was an interfaith program. There was no attempt to convert anyone to any particular faith tradition or denomination. Instead, the goal was to celebrate our commonalities and find ways to unite around them to help our communities, nation and Africa as a whole. This approach was reflected in the participation of churches from different backgrounds, including The Revelation Spiritual Home, Archbishop Ndanga branches, FFWPU Blessed families, and other IAPD church leaders.
The participation of churches from across Africa and other parts of the world was a testament to the importance of the event. The fact that more than 30,000 participants took part is evidence of the event’s widespread appeal. Furthermore, Imboni Dr. Radebe was booked for an interview of 11 minutes at National Television SABC on a peak-time evening news program.
The aim of the event was to create a momentum of praying together for the betterment of ourselves, our communities, and Africa as a whole. By doing so, we hoped to move our Creator to help this noble and spiritual cause of a Heavenly Unified Africa.
The next edition of this important event is already scheduled for March 12, 2023, and will take place in Nigeria. We will be grateful to have all the Ambassadors for Peace and UPF partners participating in this event.
