A leading Pentecostal church in Nigeria, El-Shaddai Covenant Ministries (ECM), has concluded plans for its 40th anniversary. The celebrations hold at the El-Shaddai Cathedral at Plot 6441, Yakubu Gowon Way,
The El-Shaddai Covenant Ministries, a prominent Pentecostal church in Nigeria, has marked its 40th anniversary with festivities held at the El-Shaddai Cathedral in Jos, Plateau State. The celebrations took place from Thursday, October 29 to Sunday, November 1, 2026. The theme of the celebration, 'See what the Lord has done,' emphasizes the church's belief in God's faithfulness and divine assistance throughout the decades.
The anniversary was hosted in Jos due to the significance of the city as the birthplace of the ministry. The General Overseer of the ministry, Dr. (Mrs.) Temitayo James, revealed that the ministry, headquartered in Lagos, originated in Jos before expanding across Nigeria. She introduced anointed ministers of God who participated in the programme, including Dr. Paul Enenche, Bishop O. C. Fred, Dr. John E. Akpami, Pastor Ishaya Paul Demsa, and Rev. Sunday O. Academe.
El-Shaddai Covenant Ministries, founded by Dr. James O. James (who passed away), started in the living room of the late leader with only his family and a few friends. Over the years, the ministry has grown and established branches throughout Nigeria. To celebrate the milestone, the church announced a nationwide thanksgiving service on Sunday, November 8, inviting current and former members, friends, and the general public to participate in the historic event.
