Pictured: 50 years after, Rev. Moses Iloh renews his vows with wife Pastor Edith

Reverend Moses Iloh, the 85-year-old General Overseer of Soul Winning Chapel in Yaba, Lagos renewed his vows with his 74-year-old wife, Pastor Edith Iloh after 50 years of marriage on Sunday, 21st April 2015. Witnessed by family and friends from all over Nigeria, the event which took place at the Soul Winning Chapel was officiated by their children.

Delivering the sermon, presiding bishop of The Redeemed Evangelical Mission, TREM, Dr. Mike Okonkwo said,”The Devil may tell you your marriage will not work but the fact remains that if it works for the Ilohs, then it will work for you. Let me tell you, every marriage has its challenges but God makes the difference. This couple had occasions to quit their marriage but they didn’t because they have a direction. The Devil likes to intimidate people by telling them about the impossibilities in marriages but that does not mean you should quit. Fear will stop you from attempting what naturally you could have attained”.
