Presenting the presidential address, MBC Centre Church pastor Simon Raomai described Gospel as god's spell, which should be understood as good tidings or good news of the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the living lord.
He further stated that culture is the totality of socially transmitted behavioural patterns, beliefs and all other products of human works, characteristic of a community or population.
Apart from being the basic knowledge of a people, culture also includes costumes and attires, dances, folklores, folktales, food and housing, said the Pastor.
The gospel and culture programme featured dance and song presented by MBC Centre Church Women Society, singing by the Worship Team and Okram Rani as well as Liangmai and Manipuri dances by cultural troupes.
