Events at the 2006 IPPC reached a peak on the last night when outstanding partners across the ministry were recognized and honoured with various awards for their exceptional contributions to world evangelization. The ambience created by the décor, the dazzling pageantry, the suspense and excitement generated by the announcements and the honour accorded the award recipients made the ceremony a most memorable one. Speaking with some of the recipients after the session, LoveWorld News gathered that the awards given them had greatly reinvigorated their passion, zeal and commitment to partnership with the ministry. Ministry departments such as the Healing School, LoveWorld Christian Network, LoveWorld Television Ministry, LoveWorld Publishing Ministry and The Inner City Mission all recorded phenomenal growth in 2006 due to the outstanding commitment of partners in the ministry. Also, several individuals were recognized and honoured for their commitment to the translation of Rhapsody of Realities.

THE PRESIDENT'S AWARDS
Another highpoint of the colourful ceremony was the handing out of the President's awards. Some members of the ministry were lauded by the President of Believers' LoveWorld Incorporated, Rev. Chris Oyakhilome, for their meritorious service to the ministry in the year 2006. Presenting the awards to the deserving individuals, he acknowledged the impact of their commitment to the ministry and prayed God to grant them more grace for increased service.

Surely, the memories, thrills, and bliss of the 2006 International Pastors’ & Partners' Conference would, to say the least, be indelible in the hearts of the delegates. Little wonder it was with renewed vigour and inspiration that attendees returned to their respective stations, determined to do exploits as they look forward in excitement to the 2007 IPPC with Pastor Chris.
