Foursquare Gospel Church, Asokoro, Abuja

The Sprawling Edifice

The Foursquare Gospel Church Asokoro which started in October 2002 is a part of the church planting initiative of former General overseer, Rev Dr Wilson Badejo. Then,  there was this vision God gave him called Barley Harvest, which was a church planting initiative to plant about 2000 churches all over Nigeria. Foursquare Gospel Asokoro was one of the churches planted in that era.

Resident Pastor, Rev. Julius Msheliza

UNIQUENESS
Foursquare Gospel church asokoro is unique in the sense that, it is one of the mega churches that foursquare intended to plant. The vision is to have mega churches in cities in Nigeria and Asokoro happens to be part of the initiative.

Secondly, Foursquare Gospel church Asokoro is unique in location. In the words of the resident Pastor, Rev. Julius Msheliza, “God planted us in a strategic location in the city of Abuja very close to the seat of power and to me that is not a coincidence. God did that because he wants us to be part of what He is doing in the country in terms of governance as a gateway church, not only to Nigeria but nations of the world.

Since we started, we’ve planted five churches which we have released to Ado Keffi District. We also have four other churches we are planning to start all over Abuja. In fact, one will soon be inaugurated. We also have what we call THE OMEGA 2 PROJECT  which is a mission project where we partner mission agencies to raise missionaries and send them to unreached groups all over the world.”

E-governancetoday also sought to know why the church is not growing at an alarming rate considering the rate of new worshippers that throng the church every Sunday. The Resident Pastor replies,

“The issue of church growth….no one comes to the Father except he who the Father draws. Well in our own effort, we advise members to invite people to the church; we also have some outreaches being organized by the church to reach out to our mediate neighbourhood and catchment areas. Our prayer is that the whole seats will be occupied because the seats are meant for people to sit on and hear the gospel. As it is now, we  have every reason to thank God because He has really increased us.
The church is involved in many Kingdom projects every day through various church services and meetings.
