The first edition was targeted at the educational sector, where the church gave out computers and printers to 10 schools within its neighborhood.The second edition focused on the health sector, in which four primary health centres and two general hospitals in Lagos got stretchers and bed sheets.The third edition, which addressed the finance sector, saw the ministry give out 15 motorcycles (Okada) to the commercial cyclists association in Lagos, in addition to cash to some individuals, who were able to put together laudable project profiles but lacked the finances to start up business.
