Father’s Day: Clericto ensure, sustain good families

Abuja – Pastor Babatunde Idowu, the District Overseer of Foursquare Gospel Church, Wuse, on Sunday, called on fathers across the country to do their best to make their families successful.
Idowu made this call in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja at the celebration of the 2015 Father’s Day.
The pastor said that a father, who could not provide leadership for his family, had no business to lead the church.

According to him, the father should pass the message first to the family that God has put directly under his care and to the family of Christians at large.
“A successful family does not happen by accident. It happens when people make the choice to take good decisions, involve in decent practices and lifestyles to honour God and their families.
“After God and our spouses, our children should be valued above all others,’’ he said.
Idowu said priority should be given to the time that fathers spent with their families, warning that work, business and other activities could make them neglect their families.
The President of the Council of Foursquare Men, Wuse District, Mr Thomas Itodo, said fathers were the ministers in the family with the responsibility to ensure responsible homes.
“Fathers should be able to raise healthy and well trained children by teaching them while still under parental care,’’ he said.
Itodo therefore called on fathers to create time for their children and wards, to enable them carry out their duties at home.
NAN reports that the Father’s Day, which is observed on the third Sunday of June, honours all fathers, grandfathers, great-grandfathers and father figures for their contributions to their families.(NAN)
