The Invitation

Six decades of grace, faith & legacy.

Rev. Joseph Akanya is turning 60 this October! A milestone this special couldn’t fit into a single day, so we are taking a week-long celebration to honour a life of impact and devotion.

We are bringing together the family, friends, and community who mean the world to him for four unforgettable days of worship, sports, laughter, and thanksgiving across Surulere.

You have been a cherished part of his journey, and we would be honoured to have you celebrate with us. Please let us know you’re coming below so we can share all the event details with you.

Saturday is adults only

Children and young ones are warmly invited to Worship Night, the Sports Tournament and Sunday Thanksgiving — but our Saturday Celebration is exclusively for adults.

To help us manage capacity and keep these gatherings close and intimate, we kindly ask that this invitation link is kept within our immediate community rather than shared publicly.

The space for the Saturday Celebration is strictly limited to invited guests. However, you can invite people one-on-one for the Worship Night, Sports Tournament, and Sunday Thanksgiving. Thank you for your understanding.

With love, the Joseph Akanya Family Daylight International Ministries · Surulere, Lagos
