Oluyinka Adewoye’s Unusual Calling
“Give proper consideration to those widows who are truly in need,” 1 Timothy 5:3
We have different callings. While some were called to serve in the vineyard of God as pastors and prophets, some others are called to serve humanity. But for the classy fashionista and elegant woman of style behind the LawrenceGrace Foundation, Mrs. Oluyinka Adewoye is called for the latter.
The beautiful woman is a strong adherent of the holy book of the Bible. She follows and obeys its injunctions to the letter. Apart from this, Adewoye was born with milk of kindness flowing in her veins. Her support for the widows has been described by many as highly commendable and unprecedented.
Society Watch gathered that in her usual gestures, she has once again extended her milk of kindness to over 200 widows of the Makoko community in Lagos.
The well-attended event, tagged ‘Day Out With Makoko Women’, was designed to cushion the effect of the economic hardship among the less-privileged and also bring smiles to the faces of the dejected within the community.
Speaking at the event, Mrs. Oluyinka Adewoye said that it was a thing of joy and happiness to identify with the deprived whose source of livelihood had been hindered due to one factor or the other.
“Today is a special day to celebrate with and put smiles on the faces of over 200 widows in the Makoko community. This is one of our quarterly events for widows. Today’s event would feature free medical consultation and medications, free empowerment training, free health talk, and gifts of food items to help alleviate the food shortage and put smiles on the faces of the widows. And this is coming at this season of Easter as we celebrate.”
LawrenceGrace Foundation is founded primarily on touching lives positively, reaching out to widows and indigent school children in less privileged societies by providing healthcare, free medications, empowerment programmes and gifts to support them in their livelihood.
The convener, however, thanked every individual who went out of their way to make sure those who are deprived have cause to be part of the Easter celebration in their own little way.
