The Theme of the Rally was - Wanted: Sacrificial, Sincere and Sanctified Vessels The National coordinator, Pastor Dr. Joshua O. Owoeye PhD declared the conference open. In his opening remark, he declared that:
"This is truly the doing of the Lord-for us members of Christ Apostolic Church North America, to see the inauguration and the First North America Conference Sunday School Rally. We have come this far by faith and by the grace of God. We will keep moving ahead in the Lord and doing exploits in God despite what the enemy may bring. As a church and part of the body of Christ, we are victorious and every of our endeavor shall succeed gloriously in Jesus Name. Amen."The Chairman of the Education Department, CAC North America, Pastor Dr. Gabriel Dada Th.D whose selfless service with the committee members of the Education department made the conference a reality, remarked in his Welcome Address that:
"Firstly, God has His work (program) here with us; Secondly, He is looking for vessels to serve Him; Thirdly, He has standard and qualities for the work; and fourthly’ the examples of Jesus. God has always chosen people. He has always thrown out His gracious invitation for people to respond (II Chro. 6:9; Isa. 6:8).”
"God has good, pleasing and perfect plans for His children. He wants us to be transformed people with renewed minds, living to honor and obey Him. Because He wants only what is best for us, and because He gave His Son to make our new lives possible, we should joyfully give ourselves as living sacrifices for His service."The opening lecture was given by Pastor Dr. Francis Iselowo Th.D who spoke on “Jesus Came, Lived and Died For Mankind.” He emphasized that:
Our lives must be rooted in Jesus Christ whose mission was to make Himself the sacrificial Lamb of God that takes away our sins. If you are a Christian and you are not making any sacrifice for His kingdom sake, check your stand in the Lord. Jesus called us to come to him, live for Him and die for Him if possible.
Notable speakers include Pastor Felix Adunyame a Ghanian whose lecture on The Quantity And Quality Of Jesus Prayer resonated with the audience. Pastor Oyegoke spoke on The Compassionate and Passionate Jesus and Dr. Duke Maduagwu spoke on Christ and Crisis Management. Pastor Arnold Ogunmoyero gave the fourth lecture on Jesus and The Children.
The praise and worship team comprised of Lady Evangelist Bolanle Mustapha, Mama Joy Iselowo, Lady Evangelist Funke Ogunwuyi (Texas) and Sister Adejoke Oyelowo from Atlanta Georgia.
There was time for prayers where burdens were lifted up to mount Calvary.
We want to place on record the services of our CAC members in Orlando Florida for their impeccable hospitality. Deacon and Deaconess Ben Akinola and Engineer Olaleye from Orlando Florida supervised and sacrificed their resources in transporting delegates from the Orlando International Airport to the conference venue at Double Tree Hotel by Hilton, Orlando Florida.
The conference ended with the National Coordinator, Pastor Dr. Joshua O. Owoeye praying and declaring prophetic blessings upon the delegates that attended. Finally, Pastor Dr. Gabriel Dada Th. D declared that:
God really glorified Himself considering the short notice and all the Zones in CAC North America which included 10 delegates from Canada. This portrayed a good sign of Unity for CAC here in North America and Canada under the visionary leadership of our Father in the Lord Pastor Dr. Joshua Owoeye PhD whose unwavering love for the correct teaching of the word of God in our churches motivated our organizing this 1st Sunday School Rally and Orlando, Florida happened to be the first history making city in pioneering the venue of the meeting. Thanks to my committee members and our brethren in Orlando Florida.
