Ordination is not funfair but work of God<br />
• Bishop Tackie Yarboi to newly ordained Rev Ministers<br />

THE FOUNDER<br />
and General Overseer<br />
of Victory<br />
Bible Church International,<br />
Bishop N.<br />
A. Tackie Yarboi has<br />
called on church leaders not to see<br />
ordination as a funfair but a serious<br />
work for God.<br />
According to him, the demand<br />
for leadership is on the ascendency<br />
and more so when the need<br />
for guidance and fatherhood is in<br />
great demand.<br />
Bishop Yarboi made this call<br />
during the church’s Distinct B ordination<br />
service (Dominion Sanctuary)<br />
in Accra where a total of 90<br />
of its church members were ordained<br />
in positions of reverend<br />
ministers, lay pastors, deacons and<br />
deaconesses.<br />
“Leadership does not only help<br />
in achieving predetermined objectives<br />
but creates an environment<br />
that is serene and decorous. No<br />
other time has there been the need<br />
for leaders than this time. Our<br />
world is making an urgent request<br />
for Godly leadership because<br />
these leaders have the wherewithal<br />
to navigate through the milestones<br />
of life,” he noted.<br />
According to him, “the scripture<br />
has conspicuously outlined<br />
certain leadership capacities and<br />
simultaneously defined their functions.<br />
Our congregating this auspicious<br />
afternoon is to usher some<br />
of our brethren whom the clerical<br />
leadership of Victory Bible<br />
Church International has handpicked<br />
to steer affairs in their varied<br />
designated offices.”<br />
