Meanwhile, the Overseer of C&S Church Of All Nations (Gilgal) Messenger Prophet (Dr.) Olubode Sobukola (Jp) and the entire member has congratulated the WBF champion.
In a press release obtained by Acts of Seraphs from Gilgal Media, Prophet Shobukola said the female Seraph had distinguished herself greatly in the boxing sphere by winning several awards and recommendations as a Boxing Referee at the amateur level, adding that she is equally a renowned boxing judge and professional boxer with a clean sheet and several amateur wins to her name.
The cleric also described Seraph Mary as a devoted Christian and a committed Seraph with an unshakeable faith.
“To the glory of God of God we’re proud to say that a Seraph has clinched an International Champion yet again, it’s our prayer that the fold which the Lord has bestowed grace and power upon will continually grow from strength to strength and unquestionable power in Jesus name,” he said.
While quoting the book Ecclesiastes 9:10, Prophet Shobukola advised Seraph youths and Christians at large to be diligent in which that is committed into their hands.
“In any field you find yourself, any environment or atmosphere you find yourself, always strive to do that which will bring out the very best in you legally. Be diligent in that which is committed into your hands, be fervent in spirit and praise the Lord always. For in this are your reward of diligence embedded in,” he admonished.
