The Supreme Head of the Cherubim & Seraphim Unification Church of Nigeria, His Most Eminence, Dr Prophet Solomon Adegboyega Alao JP, will on Saturday, January 11, 2020, inaugurate an ultra-modern National Secretariat complex of the C & S Unification Church of Nigeria and Women Development Centre built on Seraphim Land, Kilometer 40, Lagos/Ibadan expressway, Maba, Ogun State.
A statement by the Chief PRO of the church, Ap. Muyiwa Adeyemi, on Wednesday, revealed that the multi-million naira buildings were donated to the church by the world-renowned evangelist and philanthropist, Reverend Mother Esther Abimbola Ajayi, also known as Iya Adura.
Adeyemi noted that the National Executive Council of the church would hold its first meeting of the year at the new secretariat, immediately after the inauguration service.
The state-of-the-art secretariat, which has been fully furnished, has offices for the Supreme Head of the church as well as the national officers and staff.
It also has a conference centre and modern equipment to operate the 21st-century office.
The Secretary-General of the Church, Supt Ap. Tunde Ogunkunle, had at the last conference hosted by the Faith Mission C & S Church at Golden Tulip Hotel, Amuwo, Lagos, appealed to public-spirited Seraphs to assist in the building of the Secretariat and provide the equipment needed for its operation.
On that day, Reverend Mother Ajayi who attended the conference for the first time promised to build the Secretariat and provide all that was needed to make it the best in the country.
Commenting on the projects to be inaugurated, Ap Ogunkunle said, “We can only thank God for this. It is a dream come true. We thought it would be possible in the next eight or ten years but let’s thank Mama Ajayi for this wonder. We appealed for it in February and by May it has been handed to us. It is a special grace and this magnificent secretariat is what any church can dream of.”
The National Chairman of the church, Supt Ap. Emmanuel Omoniyi Owomoyela, said, “It’s Lord’s doing and it is marvellous in our sight. The way the two projects came into reality was beyond our expectations.
“Left to our capacity, the two projects would still remain on the drawing board. But we thank God who raised somebody to achieve this feat. We can only thank God and those God used for the projects. We have all these projects in our master plan but we never thought they would come to reality so soon.”
The chairman of the building committee of the church, Special Apostle Akin Owolabi, added, “For me, it is a fulfilment of prayers of several generations of Seraphs. It is a dream come true and as I am speaking and as I have expressed in different fora, I am still dreaming because I am overwhelmed.
“I am still dreaming, coming from a position wherein we put a caterpillar on that virgin land in 1996 and for decades, it appears nothing was moving until the first bungalow and the three pavilions we had, things looked static. But all of a sudden like a volcano, help from above erupted and for every honest Seraph, it is beyond our comprehension, that is why I call it a dream. Between May 2018 and now, that is within a period of 20 months, the entire landscape of the Seraphim Land has been transformed, hundreds of millions of Naira has been sunk.
“For me, the transformation is awesome; it is fantastic. It was progress not envisioned, but in summary, it is a revelation of God’s mightiness through the philanthropic gesture of Reverend Mother Esther Abimbola Ajayi. I want to say it equivocally that this generation and the next generation of Seraphs will forever remember, admire and praise her God for the heart of Gold.”
The dedication service which will begin by 10 am will be attended by all members of Ecclesiastical Council and NEC of the church.
Reverend Mother Esther Ajayi; her husband, Reverend Dr Ademuyiwa Ajayi, and other prominent Seraphs will also grace the epoch-making event.
