The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) says if churches were to be excluded in Nigeria, the nation will not stand.

This was stated on Saturday at the dedication a new church building in Abuja, named ‘Jesus House’, — a ceremony presided over by the General Overseer of the church, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye.

Information Nigeria learnt that the new church building, located in the Durumi area of Abuja, is a magnificent 5-storey facility that can accommodate up to 3,000 worshippers at once.

The Pastor-in-Charge of the ‘Jesus House’ parish in Abuja, Pat Akem-Vingir, speaking at the ceremony, highlighted the importance of the church in Nigeria’s social and economic fabric.

“If you remove the church from Nigeria, the country will collapse. People may deny it, but I am saying it unapologetically.

“If the church were not in Nigeria doing what it is doing; serving as the light of the world and as the salt of the earth, the degradation would have been more than we can imagine.

“70% of the country is youthful. You can’t allow that kind of generation to be wasted. The church is a place where they can find hope, direction and purpose,” he said.
