RCCG PRISON & HOSPITAL MINISTRY History

It's an established fact that the Prison and Hospital Ministry of RCCG are in almost all Regions, Provinces and Zonal Headquarters nationwide. Regrettably, despite their exploits over the years for the Lord, their activities were not harmonized and it never had national face. Late Pastor Abu first came up with the idea of moving the Ministry to National frontiers. He died without fulfiling this dream. However, after his death, Pastor Rotimi Thomas the present Vice Chairman of the Coordinators galvanically moved other Coordinators to write a letter to our daddy in the Lord through Pastor J.F.Odesola. Daddy G.O replied and mandated Pastor J.F.Odesola to inaugurate the Prison and Hospital Ministry. This was done under the unction of the Holy Spirit on the 6th day of March 2016 with a mandate to sensitize and establish a Prison and Hospital Ministry in all RCCG Parishes nationwide and whose primary roles amongst others, will be to heal the sick and spiritually rehabilitate Inmates from incarceration.
