“Turning Worship into Action” — Wale Adenuga
Speaking during the announcement in Lagos, Green Worship Convener, Wale Adenuga, described the initiative as “a testament to what God can do through people with willing hearts,” likening it to the biblical miracle of five loaves and two fishes.
He added:
“We know these are challenging times, and needs around us continue to grow. Yet, in the midst of this, there are charities doing incredible work — feeding, teaching, and caring for orphans and children with special needs. The least we can do is lighten their burden.”
Adenuga emphasized that Green Worship seeks to transform worship into tangible compassion:
“This is what Green Worship stands for — creating a space where worship becomes a response to human need, and songs turn into support. Compassion is powerful, generosity transforms lives, and together we can bring hope to others.”
Through its Concert for Change platform, Green Worship continues to inspire generosity, demonstrating how faith-driven initiatives can make lasting social impact across Nigeria.
