First Sunday is finally here
SEYI'S POV
At All Christian student fellowship, every first Sunday of the month is always native student, luckily for us all, first service of the semester was the first Sunday of the month.
You could tell Christmas was just over, with the attires, see beautiful and latest styles with nice hair styles and make up everywhere except for the fresher's you could identify most of them with their gentle face, no make up and bogus dresses .
7am, service started with Sunday school service, followed by praise and worship, A pretty sister(lady) Happiness walk up to the altar, see her heavy make up like someone going for a wedding ceremony, with are nice voice lead the worship session, see people jumping and crying, some staring at her, while some blasting in tongues, if u don't join them you will feel left out. After 10mins , the handsome MD Mike led praises, I enjoy his praises, I call it the unusual praise, see people dancing, clapping, some jumping, some running around , it was a beautiful session.
Time for opening prayer, you see people gisting, some praying and blasting in tongues, some praying sincerely while some are praying because it is time to pray

. Then the drama ministration, oh very awesome with funny characters, the drama unit, my unit was known for unity and noise to ginger the crowd during the sermon, always at the last roll at the back. The mass choir climbs the altar for their ministration, as they walk through the middle roll, you begin to wonder if it was fashion parade for the sisters in particular, see heels competition, then you see one almost falling that makes you smile and remember you are in church
After the ministration, the students pastor mounts the pubit begin to blast in tongues, oh Pastor Kingsley , most handsome pastor , he preaches, then you begin to see People talking outside the auditorium, some in the auditorium with their phone on Facebook, WhatsApp, some snap chat, some sleeping, you begin to wonder was it not this same people that was crying and blasting in tongues during worship and prayer session.
Then an usher walks up to you, stop talking, some tapping the once sleeping to wake up, after the long service, closing prayer, family song and the grace.
After the service, you see some sisters gossiping at a corner, some guys staring at sister happiness as she pass, do you believe I also stared, that sister is an epitome of beauty, then she greets u brother Seyi, you quickly smile and wave back, then you walk up to greet some excos in the church.
Service is finally over, lectures starts tommorow, even if most lecturers have not resumed, Dr Ike, the HOD Anatomy won't miss his 4hrs class.
