WE HAVE MOVED!
New Year, New Location, New Horizon for Faith District
It is not the first time. Growth always demands room.
Like the young prophets told Prophet Elisha thousands of years ago, ‘Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us. Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan...,’ when there is a special grace of favour on a people, a corresponding expansion usually follows.
It is thus the responsibility of the man, or the people, to not cower in fear, but take courage and embrace the blessing of expansion that the Lord has provided.
We started small in Modupe Street, Akoka, but it did not take too long before we became to many for that ‘strait’ place. God moved with us into Sholanke Street where we grew from just a handful score of recognizable faces to thousands.
But God was not done with us just yet. Despite splitting into two services, God continued to multiply us as he did for the Israelites in Goshen, and now, after four years in Sholanke, HERE WE ARE! Our Sunday Services will now hold at a new location: Archbishop Akinde Christian Event Centre, Igbogunu, Bariga, Lagos.
For years, we prayed.
We planned.
We stretched.
And God made room for us.
Our new location is not just about numbers, size, comfort or convenience alone. It represents capacity: our capacity to grow, to impact more people, to fulfil purpose, and to press on doing the work God has started amidst us. What does the new location mean for us?
1. More Room for People
Of course, we know that God’s people, particularly the younger generation, abounds in their large numbers out there, confused and seeking Christ. Our previous space served us faithfully, but God has continued to add to us. Young adults returning to church, first-time worshippers, and those seeking a spiritual home needed room. This new location allows us to receive more people without restriction, without turning away those God is drawing.
2. More Room for Worship
Expression matters a lot to young adults. With a larger space, our worship can become unhindered, and our prayer gatherings can expand freely. With this new venue, we now have a home that can carry the weight of the hunger God has placed in our hearts.
3. More Room for Growth
There is something about Growth. When you create space for it, growth fills up such spaces. And this growth is not only numerical, it is both spiritual and personal. This new space gives room to build a more personal community, stronger discipleship, leadership development, and intentional mentoring of young adults.
THERE IS ROOM FOR SPIRITUAL MATURITY
With increased space comes increased responsibility.
God does not enlarge us without expectation. As a church, we are being called to deeper consecration, stronger discipline, and greater commitment to Christ. This is a season to pray more intentionally. To study the Word more diligently. To live out holiness more consciously. As God expands our territory, He is also expanding our capacity to reflect Him.
And this is not just about Faith District Young Adults as a building, it is about YOU as a part of the church. We believe God is calling our members to growth in their careers, businesses, academics, and callings.
This is the season to:
Think bigger about your purpose
Develop new skills and competencies
Pursue excellence in your workplace
Build discipline, integrity, and consistency
Trust God for promotion, clarity, and open doors
As the church grows, so must the people.
In 2026, WE MUST ALL MOVE TOGETHER.
And by God’s grace, we are just getting started.
