On behalf of this ministry’s Directors and Leadership Team, once again I want to express our deepest gratitude for your continued generosity and unwavering support throughout the years. Your donations have brought hope, healing, and transformation to countless African lives. We are incredibly thankful for the difference you have made. The needs in Africa remain vast, and we hope to reach many more lives this year. Please continue giving and praying.
The continent of Africa continues to face immense challenges, including poverty amidst plenty, insecurity, and a lack of education and access to clean water in various rural areas. Yet, despite these hardships, a spirit of resilience and faith endures among the missionaries we partner with. The failures of various governments to meet the social needs of the people provide the Body of Christ with the opportunity to effect social change and create access for spiritual impact.
By God’s grace, PHGM/PHGMi remains dedicated to the cause of the Cross through our partnerships with Indigenous African missions. These partnerships provide hope for lasting change through essential mission work. We are reaching out to share our scope for 2025 with the body of Christ. We trust the Lord to help us reach our target to continue and expand our vital, life-changing, and Kingdom-enlarging initiatives.
Your generous donation will directly impact the lives of countless individuals across Africa, supporting these vital programs, among others:
Supporting Missionaries on the Front Lines: 200 missionary families and individuals dedicate their lives to serving communities in need across diverse nations. Your support provides essential monthly upkeep, allowing them to focus on their crucial work without the added burden of financial insecurity. These are the hands and feet of Christ, tirelessly serving in often-challenging circumstances.
?Educating the Next Generation: In Nigeria, 25 children of missionaries will benefit from financial assistance for their education. Your contribution will ensure they receive a quality education and have opportunities to reach their full potential. Investing in these children is investing in the future of the Church in Africa.
Nurturing Orphans in Nigeria: The JCRFCF Orphanage in Nigeria provides a safe haven for vulnerable children. Most of the children were traumatized when they saw parents being killed by ethno-religious terrorists in Nigeria. Your donation will help cover the monthly salaries of 45 dedicated staff and teachers and ensure the children receive regular, nutritious meals. Your support definitely directly contributes to their well-being and development.
Bringing Clean Water to Communities in Nigeria: Access to clean water is a fundamental human right. Three new water well projects in Nigeria will provide clean drinking water and improve sanitation for hundreds of people, significantly enhancing community health. Your donation will directly support healthier and more prosperous rural communities.
Building a Medical Center in Mora, Cameroon: A new medical center is desperately needed in the remote region of Mora, Northern Cameroon. This project will provide vital healthcare access to a vastly underserved population, offering hope and improved health outcomes. Your giving will be instrumental in making this vital center a reality.
Establishing a Mission Base in Agyana, Nigeria: A new mission house in Agyana, Nigeria, will serve as a central hub for mission activities. It will provide a safe and secure base for missionaries and community outreach programs, significantly improving their ability to serve and bring hope to this community. It will also be a safe place for converts.
Training Future Missionaries in Mozambique: A four-classroom block at the school of missions in Mozambique will equip the next generation of missionaries with the tools and training they need to serve their communities effectively. Your support will help complete this vital training center and empower missionaries in the region.
?Extending Healthcare Across Rural Nigeria: We plan to conduct vital health and medical outreach programs in 10 to 12 rural Nigerian communities, providing essential medical care, health education, and support to underserved populations. Your generosity will directly enhance the health and well-being of these communities.
We are confident that with your support, we can achieve our goals and make a profound difference in the lives of thousands across Africa this year. This is why the Lord blesses us to blossom.

Sincerely,
Pst. Isaiah Okanlawon, D.Min. International President Praise of His Glory Ministry (International) – PHGM/PHGMi
As the curtains of 2024 draw to a close and the dawn of 2025 graces us with its light, it is with profound gratitude and hope that I extend my warmest greetings to you and your family. On behalf of the leadership team and the Board of Directors of Prince of His Glory Ministry International, I celebrate with you the remarkable privilege of stepping into this new year, a true testament to the unfailing grace, mercy, and faithfulness of our Lord.
The passing year, 2024, may have brought its share of trials, uncertainties, and moments of difficulty. Yet, through it all, God’s sustaining hand has carried us forward, reminding us of His unchanging promise: that in every season of life, His love endures, His plans prevail, and His purposes stand firm. As we now embrace 2025, let us hold fast to His assurances of restoration, renewal, and abundance—a year ordained by God to bring flourishing and transformation into every sphere of our lives.
The inspiration for this year’s journey is drawn from Matthew 13:32, where Jesus likens the humble mustard seed to a great tree. Though it begins as the smallest of seeds, it grows into a mighty structure that provides shelter, sustenance, and refuge for all. In the same way, God promises to take even the smallest beginnings of our lives—those areas that seemed fragile, overlooked, or stagnant—and nurture them into something vibrant, robust, and enduring. Under His divine guidance, we are called to thrive, not merely for our sake but for the glory of His kingdom.
This year, 2025, is a season of revitalization. It is a call to rise from any place of dormancy and to embrace the fullness of God’s grace and provision. It is a year for us to grow spiritually, emotionally, and materially, becoming the instruments of His divine purpose. As the great tree becomes a sanctuary for birds seeking refuge, so shall your life become a source of hope, comfort, and provision for others. The blessings of the Lord upon you will not only enrich your life but will overflow to impact those around you—your family, your community, and even the nations.
Our mandate in this new year extends beyond personal gain. As stewards of God’s blessings, we are entrusted with the responsibility of being His hands and feet in a world that hungers for His love and grace. We are called to reflect His boundless generosity, bringing encouragement to the weary, support to the laborers in mission fields, and sustenance to those in need. The Lord’s endowment will equip you to stand as a beacon of hope, drawing souls to His light and leading them into His embrace.
My earnest prayer for you in 2025 is that God will endow you with a fullness of His goodness that surpasses your imagination. May He grant you wisdom, strength, and an overflow of resources so that your life becomes a vessel through which His purposes are fulfilled. May the burdens of the past fade in the light of His abundant grace, and may you experience His peace and joy in every area of your life.
As we step forward into this new year, let us do so with unwavering faith, steadfast resolve, and hearts open to His leading. Let us commit to thriving in His purpose, expanding our reach for His glory, and walking boldly in the path He has prepared. Together, we will blossom into all that He has destined for us, bearing fruit that endures and glorifies His name.
Wishing you a fruitful, impactful, and blessed New Year. May 2025 be a year of unparalleled growth and divine fulfillment in your life.

Celebrate 15 Years of Impactful Ministry with PHGM at Our 1-Day Worship Conference!
As we mark the 15th Anniversary of Praise of His Glory Ministry (PHGM), we are excited to invite you to a special 1-Day Worship Conference themed:
The Nexus Between Missions & Worship
This conference is set to be a spiritually enriching experience, designed to illuminate the deep connection between worship and missions in the life of the Church. It will provide valuable insights for pastors, music ministers, worship leaders, gospel music writers, and all church workers on how these two vital elements of ministry intertwine to fulfill the Great Commission.

Join us for a full day of teaching, worship, and spiritual renewal. The conference will feature a variety of sessions that tackle the central theme of the relationship between missions and worship, delivered by seasoned ministers and experts in worship theology.
Key Topics:
Revisiting the Purpose of the Church: Missions or Worship? In this session, we’ll explore the fundamental question: What is the ultimate purpose of the church? Should the focus be on mission, or is it worship? We will revisit the Bible’s teaching on the centrality of both in the church’s life.
Recapitulation of Divine Empowerment for Fruitfulness in Missions This session will emphasize the importance of divine empowerment for missions. How can believers and ministers tap into the Holy Spirit’s power to be fruitful in their mission work, both locally and globally?
The Wazobia Gospel Genre: A Veritable Tool for Musical Localization or a Distraction in Corporate Worship? Here, we’ll examine the influence of the popular “Wazobia Gospel” genre. Is it an effective way to localize worship music in Nigeria and Africa, or does it distract from the authenticity of corporate worship?
Making Sense of the Praise & Worship Element – The Method and Content This session will provide practical guidance on structuring praise and worship. What methods work best in a corporate worship setting? How do we ensure the content aligns with sound biblical doctrine?
Making Sense of the Praise & Worship Element – The Art of Worship Leading A hands-on session for worship leaders, focusing on the art of leading worship with both skill and spiritual sensitivity. We will cover topics such as song selection, flow, and creating an atmosphere of genuine worship.
