THE HOUSE OF BRETHREN GOSPEL CHRISTIAN CHURCH REGISTRATION NUMBER 181133 / TAX IDENTIFICATION NUMBER 25199238. “And let them build me a holy sanctuary so that I may dwell among them. According to all that I show you, that is, the pattern of the tabernacle and the pattern of all its furnishing, just so you shall make it” Exodus 25: 8 - 9. Calvary greetings to you all. May God shower you all with his Mercies and Blessings all day. As a valuable part of our family. How is your family doing? I hope that you are doing well. My names are Prophet Michael Olatunji Johnson, I am 62years old, the Founder and General Overseer of the House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church, 7 Ogo Oluwa Street, Ipaja, Lagos, Nigeria. A servant of the Most High Almighty God. I received the divine call to ministry from Almighty God and was ordained as a prophet at Christ Apostolic Church in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria on September 5th, 2004. The House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church is a faith-based organization. The House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church was founded on Sunday, January 2nd, 2000 as a non-governmental organization legally registered in the Federal Republic of Nigeria under the Corporate Affairs Commission, on Tuesday, May 24th, 2022 (Registration Number 181133 / Tax Identification Number 25199238). The House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church is a full gospel church devoted to the revival of apostolic signs, Holy Ghost fireworks, miracles and the unlimited demonstration of the power of Almighty God to deliver to the uttermost. Our church has been serving the community for a number of years and we continue to reach out to those in need and build communities of believers who experience the life-changing message of the gospel and the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit. Recently, the church has experienced some financial hardship, leaving us in dire need of help. The House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church has not been doing very well for a long time after the covid-19 pandemic crises. Building projects at the House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church have been stalled for some time, and we would be forever grateful if you could assist us. Our financial instability has reached a peak, and there is a great deal of burden on our shoulders. We are writing this letter to humbly request your financial assistance with a lot of great expectations in our heart that you will help us with the House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church building projects. To make this dream a reality, we need to raise $2,000. This work is estimated to cost $2,000. To carry out the necessary work, we need $2,000, and we have already raised $185.00 through fundraising efforts. We need your help today because you possess all the characteristics of a reliable and trustworthy person: politeness, tenacity, courtesy, reliability, kindness, helpfulness, friendliness, independence, assistance, leniency, impartiality, and empathy. The old sanctuary could no longer accommodate us, so we decided to build a larger sanctuary because our church's membership has grown. You can add a 648 square meter building (1 plot of land) to the church area to teach and preach God's grace, kindness, goodness, and mercy with your support. The House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church needs financial support to add another building to its church because currently, members do not have a conducive environment where they can fellowship and worship their God, a new building to accommodate a growing congregation. A few Sundays ago, as I sat on the lawn with our Sunday school youth group, teaching and preaching about God's grace, kindness, goodness, and mercy. The children were so enthusiastic, happy, and full of interest, laughing and singing. It certainly made me feel so proud of what we have achieved so far at our small, little church here in Ipaja, Lagos. It was at that time, the rain came down, and I stopped and realized how much we needed to add new building to accommodate the consistently growing number of our congregation. With your help, we can certainly accomplish this because you are a humble, fair, considerate, conscientious, courageous, intelligent, disciplined, patient, ambitious, empathetic and persistent person. You can help us with raising the funds we need to add another building to our church. We need to start raising the money now because on Tuesday, January 9th, 2023 construction on the church building will begin so that the work can be accomplished when attendance is low, the least amount of inconvenience will result from this.

The House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church building project needs your help now. Supporting and helping us build this extension, you will support the kids in such a big way! Being a devoted Christian yourself, I am sure you will understand the importance of giving our children a proper grounding in our beliefs about Christ and the Lord. This is what our church’s major goal is! We want to teach children and the congregation in the most effective way possible and help them develop into strong and honest Christian adults. As a result of this new church building, you will be able to provide a better care for these children. There will be no more interruptions or cancellations due to weather buffetings during the cold season. An indoor building with seats and proper facilities will mean so much positive difference to the children, and the congregation as a whole. As Jessica, a 12 year old girl from our youth group stated, the Sunday school I attend each week is something I look forward to every week. It gives me the opportunity to see all my friends, have fun, play, laugh, and learn about Jesus Christ all at once. The lessons that are taught are so exciting, delightful, wonderful, and I enjoy learning about Jesus Christ and all that he accomplished whole on earth. He is my superhero! Sunday school lessons have made the children and youth much happier. Moreover, they now enjoy Sunday school, which has helped their confidence. However, then there are some days when the weather is hazardous and our Sunday school gets canceled, and those days are our boring Sundays. “With your gift today, you will help the church's immediate needs and transform our church building from despair to hope and possibility, with a positive commitment of a great future in service to humanity to the Glory of GOD”.

Title Deed of Ownership: The House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church Ipaja, Lagos property deed is in my name as proof of legal ownership of the church property, and I am authorized to act on behalf of the church. As the Founding Pastor and General Overseer of the House of Brethren Gospel Christian Church Ipaja, lagos, I have never in my life used church funds for my own purposes, it is against God's will to use money from a church account for personal use. I don't want to be involved in our church account in any way. I'd rather the church spend its money on activities and member empowerment. I do not rely on the offerings from the church. It is against God's will to use a church account for personal gain; this is unaffected by intentions, justifications, or even promises to return church funds. When it comes to writing checks, I don't have control over the finances. I never use any of the church money for my own benefit. In order to safeguard the church's members, the board of trustees is in charge of this fiduciary duty and properly manages all operations, including finances. Therefore, the church account receives all donations made through offerings and tithes. Additionally, this money is utilized for essential church operations, such as building upkeep and upkeep costs; it is used to pay employees of the church their wages; it is used to educate adults and children about the Christian faith. It is used to reach out to the community and offer spiritual and material support to the people who live in our parish. As my sole source of income, I sell my Prophetic Teaching Cds, which include Growing in Faith cd, Highway of Holiness to the Lord Cd, Journey to Purification Cd, Mercy of God Cd, the Stronghold of Mount Zion Cd, Singing a New Song Cd, the Power of a Holiness Life Cd, Halleluyah to God Cd, the Open Door Cd, Heaven's truth revealed Cd, etc), Church Program Cds, and Revival Program Cds and Prophetic Teaching Books and Messages after the church service through agents at local Christian Bible stores throughout Lagos state. We serve all people regardless of faith, ethnicity or gender. We serve to empower people to be self-sufficient, to build strong families and to be a force of good in our community. Please Sir / Madam; be sure to share our fundraising challenge with your friends and family, other people who want to help our church in our time of needs as well, it would mean so much. The more people hear about our church building project, the quicker we can start our church building project, so the work can be finished as early as possible when attendance is low and the building construction will cause the least amount of inconvenience. We greatly appreciate the time, attention and generosity you have taken reading our letter and for any assistance you can offer. We shall forever remain grateful for this act of kindness and look forward to hearing from you.
