Helping people in need will be the aim for Pita Tiko moving forward in life.

The 23-year-old played the role of Jesus Christ in a play at the World Harvest Centre in Kinoya this Easter weekend.

“After playing this role, now I just want to help all the young people out there,” he said.

“I know there are a lot of young men and women who are struggling with their family or personal life so I just want to help them and motivate them that there’s a way out.”

Mr Tiko said playing the role of Jesus Christ was not easy, however, with the help of the Holy Spirit he was able to portray it as required.

“For me playing this role means a lot because when you portray the character of Jesus Christ you just want to help someone and because of that soul I chose to play this role.

“I want to advise all the young people that if there comes a situation in your life that you think you cannot overcome, remember that through God we can overcome all our hurdles.

“Sometimes, we think that drinking and other activities can help us, but just come and taste what the Lord can do in your life.”
