Family Worship Centre Abuja
Family Worship Centre Abuja
[1][2]Family Worship Centre Abuja was established on the 11th of April, 1993 in the city of Abuja Nigeria capital. No one would have guessed that the 212 people who attended that first meeting would become a 14,000 strong Christian Church by 2017. In its early days Sunday services were held initially in the Sheraton Hotel Abuja before moving to the Nicon Hilton Hotel. Weekly meetings were moved around different facilities like the Pilgrim’s Welfare Board, Ecumenical Centre and the National Centre for Women Development. At a point the church got the tag, ‘the most mobile church in the city’. By December 2001, the church completed and moved into its ultra modern campus with much fanfare.
On the 25th of February 2003, Pastor Ina Omakwu went home to be with the Lord and the mantle of leadership fell on his beloved wife, Pastor Sarah Omakwu. She is currently Senior Pastor of Family Worship Centre and President, Family Ministries International.
