Meet Pastor Mike

Rev. Michael Igunza Ovotegah was born in a Christian family. His father was a pastor in "A Friend Quaker Church". Rev. Mike is the seventh child in the family of 12 children and gave his life to the Lord in 1990. His mother died at an early age when he was one and a half years old and Rev. Mike was mistreated by his step mother until when his father divorced her. Rev. Mike is now married to Matroba and they have four beautiful children: Brian, Victor, Faith and Mercy. Before joining the pastoral ministry, Rev. Mike served as a primary school teacher and worked as a head teacher and manager of the school for eighteen years. He heard a call from God to serve Him, so in 2004 he left teaching and became a full time minister. Though life was not so easy without a job, what he learned was to depend on God in everything for His provision, and he had full trust and faith in God. Nahum 1:7. Rev. Mike went to a bible training in Theology in 2001 and qualified with a diploma in pastoral ministry. He has also gone back to advance in theology. He has joined PAN AFRICA CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY. He needs your prayers in his ministry of serving God. God bless you. Pastor Mike leading worship as his son Victor plays keyboard
