The Citadel of Triumph Ministries recently hosted the 2nd edition of its annual parenting conference, “The Intentional Parent,” aimed at equipping young Christian parents with the necessary tools to raise godly children in today’s rapidly evolving world.
The two-day event, held on August 17 and 24, at the church’s Abokobi branch, was hosted by Apostle Dr. and Lady Pastor Dr. Mrs. Armah-Glory, with panel discussions led by experienced ministers.
The conference focused on two critical subthemes: “Raising Children of Integrity in this Generation” and “Building a Healthy Parent-Child Relationship.”
On Day 1, Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Woode emphasized the need for parents to be intentional in their approach to child-rearing, stressing that training should begin early.

“Parents must not embitter their children by holding grudges,” they advised while highlighting the importance of fostering trust and encouraging healthy emotional development.
Drawing from Proverbs 4:3 and Proverbs 22:6, the Woodes stressed the biblical principle of training children in the way they should go.
“Labouring in prayer consistently until Christ is formed in them and being an example in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity are essential,” they explained.
The audience found these principles particularly powerful, resonating with the message that God is the ultimate parent, and parents must partner with Him in raising children.
On Day 2, Rev. Prof. Ayete-Nyampong and Dr Mrs. Ayete-Nyampong addressed the importance of building a healthy parent-child relationship.
The couple shared valuable insights on effective communication, discipline, and the role of faith in family life.
“Your relationship with God impacts your marriage, which in turn impacts your relationship with the children,” they reminded parents while encouraging them to create a culture of love for God within the home.

The panellists also urged parents to pay attention to their children’s progress rather than solely focusing on performance, advising parents to embrace the uniqueness of their children.
“It is important to set realistic family goals and plan even before children come into the picture,” they emphasised.
The conference was met with overwhelmingly positive feedback from attendees, who expressed gratitude for the practical strategies shared.
Many participants acknowledged the importance of learning from experienced parents and connecting with others navigating similar challenges.
With the next edition scheduled for 2026, both organisers and participants are eagerly anticipating the continuation of this impactful event.
