Redeemed Christian Church of God

Redeemed Christian Church of God is a Pentecostal holiness denomination based in Nigeria. It was founded by Josiah Akindayomi after he saw the church’s current name in a vision even though he couldn’t read or write, but he was supernaturally able to write these words down, “Redeemed Christian Church of God.” It currently overseered by Ps. E.A Adeboye.

     

Since 1981, an open explosion began with the number of parishes growing in leaps and bounds. At the last count, there are at least about 2000 parishes of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in Nigeria. On the International scene, the church is present in other African nations including C’ote D’Ivoire, Ghana, Zambia, Malawi, Zaire, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Gambia, Cameroon, and South Africa.
