Testimonies

Fr.Mbaka is truly a man of prayer through whom God  has worked many miracles.      I personally spoke to a nurse whose child was born because she had kept her ectopic pregnancy thanks to Fr,Mbaka's urging to hand her situation over to the miracle working God.This nurse lives and works in Enugu,Nigeria.

Your plans will succeed

Do you remember the good old days of mass every morning with Father Mbaka?Do you miss adoration every Wednesday?I do.One way I try to catch up is to listen to Fr.Mbaka's music as often as I can.Another way is to listen to his talk and go to mass as often possible.Father Mbaka has always tried to encourage us not to give up our trust in the Lord.This is because he believes that if we stay close to the Lord  our plans will succeed.
For me the only way our plans will succeed is if we practice adoration outside adoration grounds.This  entails finding a way outside our daily routine to adore Jesus for at least 15 minutes.One of the ways we can do this is to surround ourselves with the  word  of God for every occasion and circumstance.We then find a way to remind ourselves of these words through the rosary and themes like Quote of the week.This week's quote is' "Entrust your works to the Lord,..Your Plans Will Succeed ".This will only happen if we  truly entrust our works to the Lord.This means doing the best we can and asking God to conclude what HE  started.

Doing the best we can includes planning and doing big things a little at a time.Remember how Adoration ministry started with less than 20 people today it consists of tens of thousands of people with no room to spare.First though everyday we must pray for clarity  of intentions so that the Lord can help us Focus.(i.e Follow One Course Until Successful.)

May God  continue to bless all of us.Please feel free to share your thoughts on quote of the  week and on how  to get  FR. MBAKA'S  Music and Talk. 

Memorial

On Sunday March 7 2010  there was a memorial for those who were killed under mysterious circumstances many years ago in the adoration grounds in Enugu during Gov.Chimaroke's regime.During Sunday's service Father Mbaka prayed for the repose of  the souls of those who had died and for the well being of the survivors including widows and children.There was  distribution of hundreds of bags of rice to those present including the most vulnerable members of society.For those familiar with Adoration ministries Enugu,Nigeria, this kind gesture will come as no surprise as Father Mbaka always puts the needy and the poor first.May God have mercy on all of us and help us to live more prayerfully.
To God be the Glory

About us

From Enugu to the World and Back


"God bless you my child ", is a favorite saying of  Fr Ejike Mbaka the dynamic man  of God who started adoration ministries in Enugu with less than 10 people  more ten years ago.Today,every wednesday people of all denominations gather at the grounds of Christ the King catholic church, Enugu,for an all night adoration worship. Tens of thousands of people line up from the church near Park lane General Hospital to New Market in Enugu, Enugu State,Nigeria.This is  more than three football fields.It is a joyous and miracle filled encounter where Fr.Mbaka continues to admonish the faithful to pray without ceasing.Many people come up to the altar during adoration to  give testimonies for the great things God has done for them.

If we continue to watch and pray God will do more for us.It is because  Fr.Mbaka loves his spiritual children so much that he continues to reach out to those who cannot be physically present  at  the adoration ground.To accomplish this he has fearlessly embarked on  physically demanding and spiritually challenging crusades to various parts of  Nigeria,Africa and the world.In addition to the crusades,Father,also spreads the word of God through his music videos,tapes and talks.In this age of the internet he has decided to build a world community of adoration ministry members in various parts of world through   www.Amenfathermbaka.blogspot.com.At this site members can sign up for AmenUS,AmenEurope, AmenAsia, AmenAfrica, AmenAmericas depending on where one lives.

Any one who has been to the adoration grounds in Enugu knows that there is need to move to a different location considering the space available and the number of people that attend the weekly adoration worship.Fr Mbaka being the visionary and dynamic holy spirit-convicted leader that he is has already set up a plan for a project of the development of new adoration grounds in Enugu that will include,a prayer center,a learning center and a clinic among other things.


Every member is welcome  and free to share their stories of how Fr.Mbaka's adoration ministry has affected their lives and the lives of people known to them.Ideas are welcome on how to move our community of AMEN members forward through good suggestions,regular communication with one another and with Father,  helping one another through prayers and working on projects as designated by Fr.Mbaka.This way we can move from "Enugu to the world and back" for we all know that Jesus never fails.

It is well....................Immaculate heart of Mary;Sacred Heart of Jesus
