Dear Bro Joe,

I wish to formally use this medium to express my profound gratitude to you for all you have done for me through Deles workshops and other personal advices. I want to thank you particularly for a statement you made during my apostolic work. You may not know what you did for me by that singular utterance you made.

I was holding cutlasses that day and in my mind, what was going on is that why am I suffering like this in seminary but when you saw me you said; "Well done Godwin. This your gift of service is expanding and you are using it well." Immediately I heard that I was surprised.

For me at that point I was suffering but you saw it as a gift of service. I guess you did not know what was going on in my mind that day. But God used you to encourage me and I got more strength from that very statement of yours. I guess God used you to encourage me when I was about to give up and despair.

I want to formally thank you too for the financial assistance you rendered to me when you came for that Deles phase four. Thank you so much I least expected that from you but you did.

Finally extend my greetings to your family members – madam, Emmanuel, Emmanuela and Immaculata. We continue to thank God for you for the miracle of Children.

Finally, finally, we continue to look forward to seeing you when you shall come to have phase three Deles for us. God bless you.
