On Sunday, September 27, 2026, the Envoy Nation, a Christian church based in the United Kingdom, celebrated its fifth anniversary in Leicester. The congregation, which began as a small group of 10 during the COVID-19 pandemic, has now grown to over 700 members. The anniversary service was marked by fasting, prayers, thanksgiving, and a love feast.
Founded in September 2021 by 10 individuals at Bath Lane in Leicester, the church evolved from meeting in a sitting room to utilizing hotel halls and conference centers before establishing a permanent location on Burleys Way, Leicester. Dr. Dele Osunmakinde, the Senior Pastor, reflected on the church's journey as one of grace and divine favor during the service.
He began his address with Christian hymns, including "O God, Our Help in Ages Past, Our Hope for Years to Come" and "Great Is Thy Faithfulness," and emphasized the church's growth as a testament to God's faithfulness.
Dr. Osunmakinde praised the church's directors for their leadership and contributions to the ministry's development. He also commended the congregation for their unwavering commitment and loyalty throughout the past five years. Pastor Morin Osunmakinde, Dr. Osunmakinde's wife, joined the service via video call from Nigeria and expressed her gratitude to God for sustaining the church.
She acknowledged the dedication of members who supported the ministry since its inception and noted that the congregation had spent the previous week in prayer, fasting, and thanksgiving.
The celebration concluded with the cutting of an anniversary cake and a love feast at the church venue.
