Imphal, March 13 2011:
It was a foundation day celebration, alright, but there was something more meaningful to the 55th Foundation Day of the Manipur Baptist Convention which was held today.
The day kicked off at MBC with former Pastor Sumpi John hoisting the flag of the Church as chief guest.
Later addressing the gathering, Pastor Sumpi regaled the faithfuls with witty anecdotes from the past and drew a vivid comparison between today's youngsters and during his days.
Apart from regaling the gathering with his witty one liners, Pastor Sumpi had everyone eating out of his hand while he recalled the initial days of the MBC and the difficulties they faced.
"It was due to the unstinted efforts and support of the some people who made MBC a reality," he added.
Present Pastor of the Church, L Simon Poumai and the Deacons led the mass prayer with the Church Choir chipping in with their melodious voices.
