Category: News About Pastors & Men of God
Pastor Lawrence Okechukwu Amuruche, a head pastor for the Satellite Town branch of the Mountain of Fire Ministries Church, in Lagos is crying out for help after he is unable to raise almost N1 million needed for an operation to remove cataract from his eyes.
When asked if his church has done anything to assist him, he said;
“I have gone to my General Overseer for money to do the surgery. To get him was a problem. It was just last week that I was able to get him.
But instead of giving me money to do the surgery, he gave anointing oil, prayer points and water to be washing my face. I told him that I have prayed. I have been doing fasting and have been doing vigils concerning the eyes. But it has been deteriorating. If my coming out to seek for help will lead to my sack, let him sack me and I will go instead of losing my eyes in the name of ministry. And I will not be able to minister, I will not pastor and I will be in the house and they will not pay me.”
Pastor Lawrence Okechukwu Amuruche, a head pastor for the Satellite Town branch of the Mountain of Fire Ministries Church, in Lagos is crying out for help after he is unable to raise almost N1 million needed for an operation to remove cataract from his eyes.
The 61-year-old father of two, speaks out after the anointing oil, water and prayer points given to him by the General Overseer of his church Dr. Daniel Kolawole Olukoya did not help to remove the cataract in his eyes.
Amuruche reveals that he has been battling with eye cataract which
has grown on one eye and may affect the second if he doesn’t get medical
help as soon as possible.
He told The Sun,
that the eye problem started when his eyes were constantly
itching him, and he later had blurry sight. His wife told him there was a
growth forming in his eyes, so he went to see an ophthalmologist.
The optician told him he had developed an eye cataract and he urgently needed surgery.
“At the hospital, they said I should
provide N450,000 per eye. That is N900,000 for the two eyes but I cannot
afford it. I did an eye test for which I paid N130,000 pending the time
I will get money for the surgery. But I have not been able to raise
money and my situation is getting worse by the day.”
When asked if his church has done anything to assist him, he said;
“I have gone to my General Overseer for money to do the surgery. To get him was a problem. It was just last week that I was able to get him.
