- The new senior pastor of Bahamas Faith Ministries, Dr. David Burrow
The baton has been passed to Dr. David Burrows who is now the Senior Pastor of Bahamas Faith Ministries. Kersh Darville, the new BFM Fellowship Pastor was appointed in April of this year, and Darville officially took over the same week Dr. Pinder died.
Myles Munroe Jr. spoke during the first service held by the Church since the incident, obviously touched and moved surrounded by his blood family and church family.
“I was gonna prepare a speech, but as I was getting ready this morning I just knew that I was coming to talk to family,” Myles said, holding back tears. “I figured I would just speak to family. It’s been the hardest week for my sister and I and my family, and everyone else that has been affected; and it’s because of family why we are able to stand here today,” Munroe continued.

“My dad always spoke about his belief in people, nothing else mattered but the people, regardless of how long he spoke or he travelled, he always made time for people. That’s just the kind of person that he was. And we sometimes take that for granted just because people are here every day and you just don’t think certain people won’t be here tomorrow,” he added.
“I encourage people this week to tell people in your life that you love them. If they mean a lot to you make sure you tell them. Don’t take for granted that you will be able to tell them tomorrow because tomorrow isn’t promised.”
“You really don’t know who is sitting next to you and what they are capable of but my dad believed in everyone and that they were gifted in their area of gifting.”
Chairo added, “It’s amazing that my mother isn’t here with us either. She was a helpmate, the perfect helpmate for my dad.”

Vigor Awards Is Here To Stay – Founded by Award Winning Actress & Philanthropist @QynnAmina of @VigorAwards
Praiseworld Radio is glad to partner with Vigor Awards as her official International Media. We introduce to you Vigor Awards since 2015, and her forthcoming Award show- for this year 2016 in Canada and for the first time Vigor Awards will be coming to Nigeria in 2017, plans are already in motion. We honour the Pioneer of this great foundation- Queen Amina a fearless, strong, kind-hearted, talented, God-fearing woman, multiple award winning Nollywood Actress based in Canada and Philanthropist.
For more info, please visit www.vigorawards.com
Purchase your tickets as well on www.vigorawards.com
The purpose of the Vigor Award is to seek to honor those individuals who would not ordinarily receive recognition or be publicly appreciated for their selfless efforts to enhance the lives of people around them, through their unrewarded volunteering efforts or through humanitarian work or by acts of valor in extraordinary circumstances.
=============================================
Because of first-hand experience with some of these unsung heroes giving into her own life, Queen Amina has been given the vision to seek a venue in which those who rise above their circumstances, or those who see the needs of others despite their circumstances can be recognized for a brief moment in time. That ordinary people giving in extraordinary ways might be treated as the VIP’s that they truly are, even if the majority of the world does not know who they are. The people chosen are to be from various ethnic groups, enhancing the recognition that all races, colors, and creeds add to the value of community, whether on a local, national, or international scale.
=============================================
The desire to create a platform for this vision was heightened by Queen’s experience as a rising actress and her participation in Red Carpet events pertaining to the entertainment industry. The seed was planted to recognize individuals who give of themselves selflessly in a similar manner, knowing that there is no such ceremony in the world that specifically recognizes volunteers, humanitarians and achievers. To be able to recognize them as “stars” of life is the ultimate aim of the Vigor Award.

Christian was also presented with a surprise gift of a new guitar which was donated by a local music shop as well as donations garnered by Mr. Calgary himself, Jeff Wilkie.

VIGOR AWARDS 2016- {Windsor Ontario}
The future goal is to have Vigor Award ceremonies in different countries of the world due to the unique nature of the Award, because volunteerism, humanitarianism, and achievements of outstanding individuals is global, and to bring the aspect of “doing good for others” to all countries as well as our own.
=============================================
All guests are treated royally!

One of the best Spoken word concerts in Africa took place on Saturday, 11th June, 2016 and lovers of poetry within Lagos, outside Lagos and other parts of Africa gathered at The Dome, Lekki, Lagos Nigeria for the 2nd Edition of Rhyme and Reason “The Excision“.
The event was full to capacity as more people streamed in through the gates to see four of the best international Spoken word artistes; Jackie Hill-Perry, Preston Perry, Ezekiel Azonwu and Janette…ikz.
Members of the audience were in awe at how much Ezekiel was able to get into the devil character while performing ‘The Letter”. Ezekiel and Janette…ikz pulled off a grand show in “Ready or Not”, and Janette.
ikz got into her role by wearing a wedding dress. The crowd went wild when Preston and Jackie Hill-Perry performed “The Fall” and they didn’t stop screaming for more than five minutes! Preston’s “Jesus is God; and I dare you to tell me otherwise” line was repeated by the awed crowd long after the event was over.
Our very own home-grown Nigerian artistes also owned and rocked the stage, with Gaise, Plumbline, Atilola, DJ Mordu, OR.RAW.DAY and Ibk Spaceship Boi giving amazing performances.
One moment to remember for a long time was when Ezekiel led a typical Nigerian worship session in which he literally stole the heart of his fellow Nigerians.
To those who missed the event, you’re not left out, here’s a link to watch from
The Excision is certainly a show to remember for a long long time and Rhyme and Reason is getting ready to take the bar triple higher on their next event. Follow Rhyme and Reason for updates on upcoming projects.

Lagos, NG — Over the past one week, urban gospel act, Obiora Obiwon, has actively taken to Social Media with the promise to drop a single from his forthcoming album on his birthday, June 9, 2015.
The new single unveiled yesterday, entitled “Floodgates (The New Overflow)”, marks the beginning of a new season for Obiora Obiwon as he clocks 38 years and officially begins to mark 10 years in the music industry. The artiste reflected,
“They say it’s my 38th birthday today, but it’s You My Lord I celebrate. Thank You for giving me You. Thank You for giving me the abundant and eternal life, joy, peace and fulfillment…”
DOWNLOAD
Obiwon’s professional music career journey started 10 years ago in 2005 with the release of his first EP (short form album) entitled “Get ‘Em Up”. The EP’s lead single with the same title was remarkable for pioneering the use of 3-Dimensional Animation in Nigerian music videos.
In recent times Obiwon has been noted more for his unshaken resolve to impact the Nigerian gospel music scene, Nigerian youths and the entire society using the medium of his faith-based music.
His transition from the secular Pop/R’n’B genre in 2008 was initially received with mixed reactions but has slowly gained acceptance in recent times, with Obiwon being featured in both faith-based and secular events. Between 2014 and early 2015 alone, Obiwon clinched 7 gospel music industry awards for the stellar work on his 2013 album, Gold Water.
The release of new single “Floodgates (The New Overflow)” today gives a foretaste of the 10th anniversary projects, which will include an anniversary album aptly entitled “Floodgates: The Beginning Of The New Overflow”.
On the full album scheduled for a November release, Obiwon further mines his musical romance with long-time production collaborator Phat-E, credited for past Obiwon hits including “Hail My King”, “Obi Mu O” and the bulk of work on his last two albums. On the new single, Obiwon and Phat-E experiment with a mix of both conventional and unconventional sounds, as well as lyrics rife with symbolism.
The months ahead will see the artiste announcing the entire project plan for the commemoration of the anniversary, themed “Soli Deo Gloria” as an Anniversary Logo.
ABOUT OBIORA OBIWON:
R’n’B-Singer-Turned-Urban-Gospel-Minister Obiora Obiwon received his first gospel music honours at the 2013 National Gospel Awards and has gone ahead to receive multiple honours at notable gospel music industry platforms between 2014 and 2015. Prior to this, Obiora Obiwon’s previous work was also recognized and awarded at notable Nigerian music industry award platforms. The impact and influence of both his faith-based and preceding work continue to grow both locally and internationally.

Fun filled!
Love filled!!
Mind Blowing!!!
Reality Radio Show 2 was all this and more at Ada’s crib. The delectable gospel artiste had the Praiseworld Radio Family at her beautiful home on the 24th of February ’15.
She shared with us LIVE ON AIR what her afternoon experience is like when she’s not in the studio cooking up new gospel tunes for gospel music lovers.
Praiseworld Radio listeners were treated to few facts and exclusive information about Ada, including some unreleased songs which she sang to us, her favorite spot in the house (a corner between two chairs with throw-pillows stacked together), Inspiration zones (which included pacing around the house), her wonderful skill of using the pots, pans, utensils and raw food and turning it into amazing meals for her family (which we also experienced first-hand)
Ada’s favorite spot in the house. Where she gets her inspiration from. LOL
With different hands on deck, a three course meal was whipped up in record time.
Goatmeat Stew.
Boiled rice.
Fried Plantain.
Correct Ijebu garri laced with Milk, Sugar, groundnut and chunks of coconut on the side with refreshing cold water to go… Phew.
Yele and A’Cube
Bowls of ice-cream and soft creamy cookies rounded up the whole Food-Ministry.
Ada is fun!
An amazing, talented and beautiful gospel artiste of this generation.
She has two beautiful and adorable children and a darling husband.
From The CEO himself Tola, the spice on the Mic overseeing the downing of each meal by everyone to Provabs’ manning of the fried Plantain so A’cube wouldn’t touch to Gamie posing for pictures like he was born to do it to Kishi with his undercover picture-taking skills of the camera shy AwhyOfGod to Ma’am Yele’s helping out Ada in the kitchen and to the listeners tweeting and calling in, we can say Reality Radio Show @AdaEhi’s crib was REAL alright.
It was as real as Jesus’ birth people.
Yes, we never forgot God amidst the fun.
So who’s next? Who’s crib are we storming next? Do you have a clue?
Let us know…
WE ARE PRAISEWORLD… Woohoooo!
