The Senior Pastor of Harvesters International Church, Bolaji Idowu, has unveiled a welfare initiative offering financial assistance to church members who serve in the ministry but are currently without jobs.
Idowu disclosed this during a Sunday church service, drawing attention to the challenges faced by some members who are between jobs.
According to him, the monthly support of N50,000 for a period of three months is designed to help affected individuals remain financially stable while they seek new employment opportunities.
He said, “All those that serve in church that are in between jobs, watch what I said. You know, they’re in between jobs. You used to have a job, you lost a job. For the next three months, we’ll be giving you N50,000 every month to help them till they get their next job.”
The cleric noted that the scheme would apply to leaders and workers serving in different roles across the church.
“So all of those leaders that serve in church that I just mentioned, you know, we’re giving N50,000 just to help them stabilise. One of the things the church should do is to be there for one another, hallelujah, to help them stabilise,” he added.
Idowu further encouraged eligible members to formally register with the church administration, stressing that the process would be simple because of the trust built through their commitment and service.
He said, “If you’re that kind of person, that category, you want to see your pastor and your church administration and register. We’re not going to do so many interviews because for you to serve, we trust the fact that you’re honest.”
The announcement was met with loud applause from members of the congregation, many of whom welcomed the gesture as a timely show of support.
