The Yearnings and Aspirations of Brother T 

His record of July 1949 reads: 

“Immediately I received from Rev. George Hughes that the authorization  had been given to baptize and observe the ordinances of the Lord's Supper  and Washing of the Disciples' Feet, I advised the saints to hold our week night meetings and services as Revival services instead of the Camp  meetings as we had no facilities to go out of the town for camping. These  meetings brought unforgettable remarks in our records. During the period  of these services, two souls were saved, seven sanctified and six saints  were baptized with the Holy Ghost and Fire. Three more were praying for  salvation and other experiences. 

“Early on Thursday at 5am, we had seventeen saints for Water Baptism by  immersion. Their names were:  

1)Brothers Timothy Gbadebo Oshokoya, 2) Lucas Jonathan Obakoya  3) Jettey Benedict Abbey, 4) Michael Bandele Oduwole, 5) Samuel  Sampson Adetunbo Orimi, 6) Hector Abimbola Elebute, 7) Emmanuel  James 8) Sisters Rebecca Oreolu Onanuga, 9) Elizabeth Oyebola  Abosede, 10) Hannah Emiola Oshokoya, 11) Henrietta Aina Pears,  12) Florence Sonein, 13) Abigail Adunni Odu, 14) Marie Olubunmi  Shylon, 15) Alice Olateju Akodu, 16) Roseline Bridget Lydia Hall  Thompson, 17) Margaret Rachel Lathbridge.”
