We give thanks to God for the inauguration of the Diocese of Lagos South West, the 166th diocese in the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion). We praise the Lord for this joyful milestone and for the faithful leadership of the Primate, The Most Rev’d Dr Henry Ndukuba, who inaugurated the new diocese and who serves as a valued member of the Gafcon Primates’ Council.
We pray that the Lord will bless Bishop Ebenezer Adewole, the clergy, and all the people of this new diocese. May they build firmly on the foundation of Jesus Christ, united in purpose, bold in mission, and eager to break new ground for the gospel.
We also give thanks for the global fellowship of Gafcon, standing together to proclaim Christ faithfully, support orthodox Anglican ministry, and encourage the flourishing of dioceses like Lagos South West around the world. May God grant wisdom, strength, and joy as this new diocese begins its ministry.
