No one can write the history of our mother without Jerusalem Church of the Lord International. It is like "No Nile, no Egypt". We have Jerusalem Church of the Lord today because God has found in our mother the true Spirit of the Prophets of old; humility, a deep reverence for God, and love of mankind rather than love of money. All these made God to be delighted in her and chose her to lead His people, Jerusalem.

 

It is noteworthy that where the church's headquarters is today was not the original site. The original site was behind Alhaji Ajibola's house opposite the road, work there was stopped because of strong opposition to our building a Church behind a Muslim's house. When all efforts to continue there failed, God opened the road to this site for us through the benevolence of late Pa. Adesina who was the then occupant of the sawmill near us. May his soul rest in peace.

 

Jerusalem Church of the Lord International is a fully registered and incorporated Church with a Board of Trustees of ten members initially, now increased to seventeen for administrative purposes. Jerusalem Church of the Lord International within the first seventeen years of its establishment has got branches in Ekiti, Ondo, Oyo, and Lagos state, The Federal Capital, Abuja, Nigeria, London, U.K, and in the U.S.A.

 

You may be surprised that our Mother is also known as Iya-Ewe. In fact, this was the first title that God gave her in the Church. He also endowed her with the power to deliver and take care of babies, pregnant women, and nursing mothers without undertaking any training for it. Indeed, more than a thousand babies have been safely delivered by her in our Maternity Home. It is the power of the Holy Spirit. Some deliveries were very difficult and unique. After one such delivery, our mother had gone home to have her bath when she heard the voice, "doctor," "doctor," "doctor." It was on 11th January 1991. That was the first time she started bearing the title of a Doctor. It was a divine calling.
