Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission, NCPC, Rev. Dr Yakubu Pam has charged the Pilgrimage Managers to have faith in the pilgrimage process and execute their services diligently.
Pam made this disclosure during a prayer session in Jerusalem, recently.
Newsdiaryonline learnt that the Chief Executive was in Israel for the State of Readiness visit in preparation for the 2021 pilgrimage exercise to Israel and the Kingdom
of Jordan which will hold in the first quarter of the year.
He urged Christians to grow above their feelings and above the negativity they see.
“Always think Positive, we will get it right when we think positive and with faith”.
Pam admonished the Pilgrimage Managers who came along with him for the State of Readiness Visit to have faith like Abraham in the bible.
“You can never know the journey of Faith. We may not know how the pilgrimage will look like, but as people of faith, we should believe, if our foundation is laid by God,
then this pilgrimage will turn to be a great one come the first quarter of the year”.
He reiterated that, working in agreement cannot be easy, urging the pilgrimage managers to always listen to one another, welcome new ideas, and understand each other, saying gradually things will fall in place.
The NCPC boss stressed that the greatest agreement they have is an excellent pilgrimage exercise and that should come with commitment.
He also advised that pilgrimage managers should make conscious effort to observe all the COVID -19 protocol to avoid getting infected as he would not want to go back to Nigeria living anyone behind in Israel as such, they should avoid crowded areas during their stay in Isreal.
Pam also gave the full itinerary for the State of Readiness visit for
everyone to be informed on the programme of event like the visit to
Holy Sites and Inspection of Aircrafts.
The Chairman of Tabar Tours, Mr. Wisam Tabar welcomed his visitors and he expressed his joy for their visit.
Tabard explained that the pandemic had caused great setback for Christian pilgrimage.
He thanked the Executive Secretary for his efforts to revive the
pilgrimage to Israel and also appreciated him for the prayer he made for the Country of Israel at Mount Nebo during the Pilgrimage in Jordan.
