OKE AAFIN, EPE - EKITI CHURCH 2
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH OKE AAFIN,
EPE EKITI
The
Seventh-Day Adventist church Oke Aafin was inaugurated on the 2nd of
November, 2003. Pastor S. B. Dada was the first Pastor of the church while the
first Elder of the church was Elder M. O. Fadare. Both of them worked
tirelessly in ensuring that the dream of having another church at Epe came
true. This church was formerly named Oke – Agbara, during the period. The
church started with seventeen members. The owner of the building where they
started worshiping was Mr. Olalere Ajayi. They worshiped there for two and half
years.
The
members continued to struggle in order to get a befitting land. Their dream was
not realized until 2010 when they secured a portion of land at Oke Afin Street,
Epe Ekiti. This brought a change of name from SDA Church Oke Agbara to SDA Church
Oke Aafin, Epe Ekiti in 2010. Pastor J. O. Olatunji was the church Pastor
during this period. The land was bought from Ile Titun Compound, Epe Ekiti.
With
the help of God Almighty, the population of the church has increased from
seventeen to thirty five members now. The church was organized on 1st
of July, 2017.
The
main challenge of the church is the completion of the church building which is
still in progress. Members still worship under a lamb shelter at present.
To
God be the glory.
