OUR VISION

OUR MISSION

Our Senior Pastor - Dr Sylvanus Ukafia

Dr. Sylvanus Ukafia was born on the 18th of April 1960 to the royal family of Ede in Okorete, Eastern Obolo Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State. He began his educational career at St. Silas Anglican Primary School, Okorete and completed it at Government Primary School, Atu Street in Calabar, Cross River State. On completing primary education, Sylvanus gained admission into the prestigious Hope Waddell Training Institute, Calabar. He was admitted into the University of Calabar to study Medicine and Surgery in 1979, from where he graduated with MB, BCh in 1985. Determined to improve his professional standing, Dr. Ukafia returned to the same institution in 1991 and in 1993 obtained Master’s of Science degree in Human Anatomy.

Dr. Ukafia has had a rather tortuous career in medical practice, largely because of an irrepressible sense of divine call to ministry that he perceived quite early in life. During his National Youth Service year (1986-87), he served at Rural Health Center in Sabon Birni and General Hospital, Isa both in Sokoto State. After the Service year, Dr. Ukafia stayed back in Sokoto for a short while and practiced at Muhammadiya Medical Clinic, Talata Mafara and at the same time pastoring. In 1988 he relocated to Port Harcourt and took up appointment with Mile One Clinic, Ikwere Road. About a year after, he was offered an appointment as a lecturer in the Department of Anatomy, College of Medicine, University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT), from where he resigned to answer God’s call to the ministry.
