Embracing Wisdom: WEBS Elderly Care Outreach in Benin City, Edo State
In the heart of Benin City, where the gentle breeze whispers tales of history and tradition, stands Moonshine Elderly Care Home. Nestled on Ezena Street, this sanctuary of compassion opened its doors to WEBS Ministry Edo State on a memorable February day.
Led by the indefatigable Mrs. Arubisan Edema, National Outreach Coordinator WEBS Ministries. WEBS ministries in Edo State embarked on a journey to connect with the souls residing within the walls of Moonshine. With a team comprising Miss Obehi Obode, Mrs. Isoken Ebose, and the supportive presence of Pastor Collins Aigbomogbe from The School of Deliverance Power Ministry, they set out to spread love and joy among the elderly.
Moonshine Elderly Care Center, under the nurturing care of Professor Mrs. Evelyn Unuigbe, has been a beacon of hope for the elderly in Benin City for four years. As the WEBS team entered the tranquil abode, they were greeted by Roselyn, a caregiver whose warmth reflected the spirit of the home.
The program commenced with Pastor Collins delivering a soul-stirring message, his words resonating with the residents and caregivers alike. Prayers were offered, weaving a tapestry of faith and gratitude that enveloped the gathering. Though Professor Mrs. Evelyn Unuigbe couldn't be present physically, her spirit of appreciation permeated the room, bridging the gap between hearts.
Photographs captured moments of shared laughter and tender exchanges, preserving memories that would linger long after the day's end. The generosity of spirit manifested in the form of donations - rice, oils, toiletries, blankets, socks, and more - is a testament to WEBS' commitment to caring for its elders. The outreach concluded with hearts overflowing with gratitude, as the WEBS team reflected on the profound privilege of serving the elderly community of Benin City.
As they bid farewell to Moonshine Elderly Care Home, the echoes of prayers and laughter lingered in the air, a reminder that in the embrace of wisdom, there lies the true essence of humanity. And as they journeyed forth, they carried with them the blessings of the elderly, a treasure to be cherished on the path ahead.
