I sing to evangelize and assist the less privileged-
There is always a purpose for any action or decision taken by individuals in life.
This is exactly the story of a Nigerian trained nurse based in Canada, Mrs Rachael Owojori, who combines her nursing career with being a gospel singer.
Interacting with the highly talented gospel singer, Rachael Owojori bares her mind on inspiration behind her New Single, ' Give me Jesus' , her interest in Humanitan Service, her experience with Music Promoters among other sundry issues .
Rachael Owojori is an household name in gospel music circle both in Nigeria and in diaspora.
According to her, the two main purposes of being a gospel singer are to win souls for Jesus Christ and give back to the society, especially, the less privileged through her Humanitarian service unlike other singers who cherish amassing wealth by building mansions and riding exotic cars.
Rachael Owojori revealed that she has dedicate her life to put smile on the faces of less privileged and evangelize through her ministration in social gathering, concerts and churches.
Speaking about her new single;
Rachael Owojori expressed gratitude to the Almighty God for the grace, support from friends and families as well as fans both in Nigeria and in diaspora.
Her words;
"This song is more than just music—it's a prayer of commitment.
God inspired me to compose ‘Give Me Jesus’ during a time when I was urged to stop singing about God and Jesus to attract a bigger audience and achieve fame..
" I stood firm in my beliefs and refused to compromise because I know that fame, money and pretty much, everything without Jesus is nothing.
I find true contentment in my relationship with Jesus and hope that it touches hearts and encourages people to seek peace, hope and strength in Him.
.
"Although, I have faced various challenges due to my Christian faith, one notable experience was when a record label approached me with an offer to become one of their artists..
The condition, however, was that I would not sing about God or Jesus and I declined the offer. While I have encountered different challenges as a Christian, nothing compares to what our brothers and sisters endure when they are tortured and killed for their beliefs.
We must therefore continue to pray for our brethren who face persecution day and night". Rachael Owojori stated.
Rachael Owojori is the Choir Director in her church, The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Heaven’s Gate in Saskatoon, Canada, where her husband, Dr. John Owojori
