Christian have been challenged to take religion beyond praying and fasting and embrace Mercy, Justice and compassion to the widows, less- privileged and the disadvantaged in the society. Preaching a sermon on the topic “God Created us for Good Works”, at the September edition of  MOUAU PRAYS- a monthly prayer meeting for management, staff and students of Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Professor  O. O. Ukoha identified sin and disobedience as gateways to cruses and advised Christians to keep away from them in order to enjoy God’s glory.
Taking his text from Ephesians 2:1-2, 8-10, John 14:12-13, I Peter 5: 8-9 and Zechariah 5:4, Professor Ukoha emphasized on the need for Christians to serve God through their chosen professions and lifestyle, adding that chosing to do the will of God at all times leads to living a fulfilled life in Christ.
 In a closing remark, the Vice- Chancellor Professor Francis Otunta who thanked the speaker and the Evangelist for their fervent prayers for the University challenged Christians to desist from practicing submarine Christianity which according to him is a situation where Christians only live for Christ on Sundays and go back to sin the rest of the week. He also urged all present to practice the word of God and thereby appeals that others should be invited to join in worshipping God.
 The prayer meeting featured songs, special prayers for the sick, the University Management, Staff, Students, Nigeria and Abia State.
