Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo led COZA to establish Church Camp for Special Programs
*This is Not Our Final Place says Pastor Modele Fatoyinbo
The Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) is establishing a camp in the first few months of 2021 which would likely be ready for use sometime this year.
Speaking at the ongoing 12 Days of Glory, the wife of the Senior Pastor and Co-Founder, Pastor Modele Fatoyinbo announced that the ultra modern Guzape Abuja facility was not their final destination as a Church headquarters as there was a need for a place where they would have adequate time to worship God without the need to worry about closing time snd going home.
According to Pastor Modele,
“What unlocks the presence of God is worship. You can imagine if we are in a camp meeting right now, and it will happen this year. We will be in a bigger place having our own camp meeting and nobody will need to leave. Everybody will have a room to himself somewhere.
We have just started and that is what will happen. It doesn’t take long, it takes God, so don’t get tired of worship, don’t get tired of praying”.
Quite a number of major Nigerian established Churches have set up camps for major programs and some of the most prominent are the RCCG’s Redemption Camp (1983), Living Faith’s Canaanland(1998), MFM’s Prayer City (1999), Deeper Life’s Conference Centre(1998), Dunamis’ Lord’s Garden(2014) and Christ Embassy’s LoveWorld Grounds among many others. These camps or estates are semi-autonomous and run like mini cities while providing themselves essential facilities and infrastructure like water, electricity, medical, good roads, Fuel Stations and even providing structures for the Nigeria Police and even Fire Service. Some of these camps also host universities. These Churches have spent and continue to spend trillions of naira to develop these cities and also provide jobs for members and the populace as a contribution to the spiritual life and environment of the nation as well as real estate and the economy of the Country.
Currently Churches like RCCG, Living Faith, MFM, Christ Embassy, Salvation Ministries, The Citadel and Masters Place, etc have multi billion naira building projects ongoing.
