A Tribute To Myles n Ruth Munroe From David Oyedepo

Bishop of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, popularly known as Winners’ Chapel, David Oyedepo paid tribute to his late friend Myles Munroe and wife Ruth.
It would be recalled that the internationally famous preacher, his wife and their daughter were on board of the private jet, which crashed in Grand Bahama last Sunday, November 8, 2014 leaving none of the 9 people alive.

The Nigerian cleric expressed sorrow over tragic passing of the family as he took to his Facebook account with a message dedicated to the late spouses. Oyedepo called Myles his “twin brother”, while he referred to Ruth as “a bundle of joy”.

A Tribute to Myles and Ruth Munroe

Myles and I called ourselves ‘twin brothers’

 Myles, my twin brother is gone up to glory

 Ruth, his partner in life and death has gone to eternal rest

 Faith and I miss you both!

Our moments together on this side of the Jordan were most memorable.

We stayed together on several occasions under the same roof

 We lodged in same hotels time and again; we shared the platform together preaching the good news of the Kingdom over the years.

 Our friendship of over 24 years was a most enriching and adventurous one,

 Our partnership in ministry was also a most profitable and rejuvenating one. 

Myles, my twin brother

 A bundle of inspiration

 A man of spiritual depth and insight

 A leader of leaders and teacher of teachers

Ruth, a bundle of joy and divine radiance

 Your smiles were ever contagious,

 You exhumed gentleness, love and care like a fountain

 You were indeed a priceless jewel! 

The two of you were swifter than eagles

 You literally traversed the globe

 As you taught nations the principles of the Kingdom

 You were both as strong as the unicorn,

 Energetic, untiring, never relenting, purposeful and focused 

I could still remember, Myles and I took all the inaugural induction lectures for the pioneer Faculty and Staff of Covenant University in August 2002.

 All of Myles’ meetings on our church platform were ever inspiring and impactful.

 The Living Faith Church Worldwide really misses you! 

Good night Myles, my twin brother!

 Good night Ruth, his partner in life and in death. 

Meanwhile Oyedepo has been recently in the news in connection with the scandal surrounding his Winners’ Chapel International (WCI) and its plans to establish a school in the UK. 

Several human rights groups urged the authorities to turn down the bishop’s bid expressing concern that his church attributes poor discipline to witchcraft.

Earlier this year pastor Oyedepo was caught in another controversy after he had been called world’s richest clergyman, with an estimated net worth of $150 million.
