Sovereign Grace Community Church | Abuja, Nigeria

Tell us about your family.

My wife is Ifetayo and we have been married for 2 years. We have an 11 month old whose name is Jesse.

Oh, we love to have people over at our place, we love to be with friends and family. We also like to travel when the opportunity affords itself.

How have you seen God working in your life?

Being a newly wed (of sorts), I have seen the Lord expose just how selfish I am. The last year, has been God working in me to kill selfishness in me. I have found myself thinking more about serving others.

How have you seen God working in your family?

We have seen how the Lord has used praying and reading the Word together daily, to draw us closer to one another. Truly the Lord blesses homes that come to Him as one.

How have you seen God working in your church?

I have seen the fruit of faith, hope and love through the course of the year. Apart from numeric increase, there has been spiritual increase. I have seen brothers and sisters who have experienced deep loss still worshipping the King and declaring His faithfulness, even through tears.

What is your church’s mission/vision?

Our Vision is: To be a community of believers who demonstrate from Monday to Sunday the power of the gospel in every area of our lives.

Our mission is to spread the gospel, serve our community, and glorify God in all that we do.

How can we be praying for you?

1. That the Lord will raise faithful men who can serve in leadership.

2. That he would bless us with a zeal for reaching our Muslims neighbors.

3. That the gospel will work powerfully in our hearts to bear fruit for all in our city to eat from.
