Less than 48-hours after news of the passing of his son set the internet on fire, the Founder and General Overseer of the United Denominations of the Lighthouse Group of Churches (UD-OLGC), Bishop Dag Heward-Mills, has taken to the pulpit to preach the word of God.
Opened up about the death of his 31-year-old son in a sermon titled, “The grave is not the end,” the renowned Evangelist said the death of his son, Dr David Heward-Mills, has created a “funny environment.”
A video posted on citinewrsoom captures the Man of God questioning what the reaction of others would have been if they had lost their son.
“My son David just passed away. It spoils everything. You ask me am I sad? If you had a son who died, will you be sad? You should ask yourself that question. It spoils everything. It brings a funny environment and it makes nonsense of everything. We always try to wish it further and further away but that is how it is.”
Dr David Heward-Mills, a 31-year-old medical doctor based in the United States passed away on Good Friday.
In a communique addressed to the church and the general public, the family requested privacy as they mourn the first son of their leader and founder.
“It is with deep regret and great sorrow that we announce the sudden passing away of David Heward-Mills, after a short illness. David was the first son of our Founder and Presiding Bishop.”
