Festival of Life

I am back as promised with a continuation of my updates. Friday the 13th of April 2007 was not an ordinary day. The Excel Centre was jam packed as usual with people attending FOL (Festival of Life) - The bi-annual, all-night event hosted by Pastor E.A. Adeboye, General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God. A gathering of about 45,000 people. The theme of the programme was 'All will be well'. The Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone came as promised. He was pleasantly surprised at the amount of people at the gathering. He publicly apologised for the slave trade and pledged his support for the churches. I conducted a 30 minutes interview with him alongside Lee Jasper for FOL.
