Apostle Helen Ukpabio, revered evangelist and visionary behind Liberty Foundation Gospel Ministries, has issued a bold caution to believers worldwide, urging them to rethink participation in hallmark celebrations such as Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and similar observances.
With passionate conviction, she identifies these widely embraced traditions as contemporary iterations of idol worship—ingeniously disguised but spiritually perilous.
The charismatic leader traces their lineage to ancient pagan customs, asserting that modern adaptations carry forward hidden rituals under new branding.
“Behind these cheerful greetings lies a dangerous echo of history,” Ukpabio warns. “What appears innocent today mirrors forbidden practices where communities abstained from work, exchanged offerings, and honored false deities.”
“Scripture foresaw this deception,” she observes, citing Acts’ prophetic warnings about idolatrous practices repackaged for new generations.
Her voice intensifies as she challenges conventional thinking: “Why restrict gratitude to calendar dates? True honor flows continuously—not confined to designated days.”
The spiritual leader dismantles the logic of seasonal appreciation: “Does loving parents require annual reminders? Shouldn’t every sunrise bring opportunities to cherish family?”
Ukpabio concludes with sobering spiritual counsel: “Beloved, recognize these celebrations for what they truly are—subtle altars where unknowing worshippers bow. The heavenly ledger records all such compromises.”
