Our Story
FOURSQAURE GOSPEL CHURCH STADIUM (winning faith Assembly) was planted in the month of June 2002 by Alaka Foursquare Gospel Church, Alaka during tenure of Rev. Yomi Kasali, the senior Pastor of Alaka Foursquare Church, Alaka.
This great work started with the founding Pastor – Rev. Tosin Odusote ably supported by the pioneering Advisory Council members- Pastor( Dr) Diran Ayodeji, Mr Ufot. W. Ufot, Deacon Tunde Oloko, Deacon Maxwell Ejeh.
The pioneering members include- Pastor (Mrs) Odusote, Pastor & Mrs Albert Nnamuka, late Dcns Funmi Ayodeji, Dcns Emem Ufot, and Bro. Yinka & Sis. Seun Odekunle and Sis Duru Chinasa.
The church started in the office space of the Pastor at 5, Aibu Street, Surulere, against all odds the church stayed for six months.
The church relocated to another office space on Adeniran Ogunsanya Street, where God granted us favour for another six months.
The relocation continued as the church moved to Bode Thomas, an open space by the side of the house of a sister to one of our members, popularly referred to as “Open heaven”. We thank God for the house because it serve as “Noah’s Ark” whenever it rained.
The church moved again to a club house at Bode Thomas called “pokomiko”. Though the environment was “wonderful”, the Lord proved himself great in our midst with great manifestations of His presence. The Lord added to His church in unique ways even though our meeting place was a hindrance for many to stay long with the church.
The exodus continued, as the church made a major relocation from Bode Thomas to Itire Road in 2004 in a more conducive environment. Though we started with the hall on the ground floor, we eventually occupied most of the entire building as the ministry work expanded.
On 16th of October 2016, the church was chartered and upgrade to a full-fledged zone by the Alaka District Overseer- Rev. Henry Obialor. In December 31st 2017, a major event occurred with the movement of the pioneering Pastor- Rev. Tosin Odusote, to Foursquare Gospel Church Bode Thomas as the Senior Pastor, as Rev. Oluyinka Abodunrin was installed as the new Senior Pastor of the church.
