According to Dr Christian Omojefe "fasting can promote fertility ..." He made this statement at a lecture he gave in portharcourt on 17th January 2016 where he made known of the benefits of fasting. Dr Omojefe a member of GMT (Gilead medical team) a voluntary service group of the living faith church, spoke as the resource person.
He described fasting as a healthy medical exercise and urged Christians to engage in it once in a while. He explained that not only does fasting boost a persons spiritual well being and awareness, it also boost fertility, brain cells and immunity.
He also lamented on the benefits of engaging in routine medical check ups for early detection of ailments. He made known that the aim of organizing the lecture was to enlighten the public on the importance of medical care and access to faith based healing through fasting. The doctor also told the audience that the Gilead team is a non governmental organisation made up of medical doctors, nurses, and pharmacists who are also members of the living faith church that provides voluntary medical services to the community.
In the progress of the lecture, Omojefe explained that surely healing comes from God but cautioned against refusal to seek medical help under the guise of searching for faith based healing especially in the face of very challenging medical crisis.
The resident pastor of the living faith church Iriebe Obio-akpor local government area of Rivers state pastor Steven Ndubisi thanked the Gilead team for the lectures and for the donations they made to the Iriebe community and then urged the members to take advantage of the free medical services the team provided in order to remain healthy.
