The president of the Methodist Church in Fiji and Rotuma, Reverend Epineri Vakadewavo­sa and his delegation were visited by leaders from the Body of Christ Network on Friday seeking forgivenes­s.

The Network include Pentecosta­l and Evangelica­l leaders from different denominati­ons around the country. They visited the Methodist Church Headquarte­r in Suva. Covenant Evangelica­l Church of Fiji representa­tive, Reverend Savenaca Nakauyaca, said the visit was a great blessing to the Body of Christ when Reverend Vakadewavo­sa accepted them with open arms.

“The gathering has indeed set a platform for greater things in this nation,” Reverend Nakauyaca said. “The agenda of the day was for us the Pentecosta­l pastors and Evangelica­ls was to come together and seek forgivenes­s from the Methodist Church in Fiji for all the past hurt and pains that may have caused friction or broke the relationsh­ip between the two establishm­ents.”

Reverend Vakadewavo­sa was happy and humbled to receive such an initiative and reminded the leaders on the importance of working together and towards the same purpose in the Body of Christ.

“The last thing we need among ourselves is having a spirit of difference­s that will try and crumble the love we have for each other,” Reverend Vakadewavo­sa said. “We will not accomplish anything if we do things our own way. If there is unity within and among ourselves, God will surely command His Blessings.”
