Saturday, October 21, 2017 - 11 am "African Party for the Copples" - Host: Apostle Cornelius Babaloa, Tabernacle House of Prayer. 427 McArthur Avenue, Ottawa ON K1K 1G5.
This event included mostly African dishes and fruit prepared by Pastor Ansa Babaloa. We shared communion, greetings from each IPLF member and guests present, prayers and our friend Lorna was led to have the pastors and leaders honoured, while Lorna and Laurie-Ann walked around the room, praying for the pastors. There was even a pastor couple there who are new members of IPLF from Cape Town. Jokes were shared that perhaps the Copples and this couple were exchanging places. :) Tony has been part of the IPLF since 2007, as board member and treasurer in recent years.
