Proverbs 31:10, 23, 26, 28
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. Her husband is know in the gates when he sitteth among the elders of the land. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he priseth her.
First Lady Ugoeze D. Nnams, affectionately known as ."Rev", hails from Asaga-Ohafia where she was raised, and nurtured in the faith by her parents.
Rev Ugoeze is a gracious, loving and compassionate woman who understands the awesome responsibility of being a First Lady.
Although she is recognized for her many gifts, She is the wife of the anointed and talented Bishop Dr. Prince Nnams Kalu, Founder/Chief Apostle of Great Achievers International Church Inc.They’ve been married since September 25, 1999. Not only is she a devoted wife, but she is also a loving mother to her six blessed children.
First Lady Ugoeze is a licensed and ordained minister of the Gospel through two different Associations, Pilgrims University and Ministerial Association, U.S.A. and UK World Evangelism Trust, London. Coupled with her credentials and her love and concern for people, she counsels the members of the congregation as she gives leadership to the G.A.I.C
In 2001, Rev. ‘Ugoeze’ completed her studies in the Old and New Testament Survey, Diploma in Mission and Theology from Rehoboth Institute of Ministerial Arts and Pilgrims University, U.S.A.
Rev Ugoeze Deborah not only ministers with her husband, but she believes in the vision that God has given him for Great Achievers International Church Inc. She confidently stands together with him proclaiming the vision, "Making Ready A People Prepared For The Lord".
She is a prayer warrior, who is anointed to speak and share God's word with women. First Lady has been the guest speaker for many Women's ministry services, and also partners with her husband to speak and teach at marriage conferences.
She is a special person with a quiet strength. She stands on God's promises, trusting and believing in His word through all situations, and brings that same message of hope and promise to those she comes in contact with.Childhood, adolescence, adulthood, marriage, bereavement, motherhood…. through each and every one of her experiences (and those to come), Rev. Ugoeze Deborah recognizes that “”in Him we live, and move, and have our being.” (Acts 17: 27). And, as noted in Proverbs 3:5-6, she has learned to “…Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”
While obligations to the ministry are important, Lady Ugoeze ensures that her other covenant relationships are well maintained. She joyfully serves as her husband’s helpmeet.
She is a gifted teacher with a simplistic approach to the Gospel that encourages women to develop a more intimate relationship with Christ. She allows the Lord to use her in teaching the Word of God and leading God’s people in worship.
Lady Ugoeze Nnams has a passion for God and is desperate to worship Him in spirit and in truth.
CHRISTIAN FAMILY ISSUES
