Christos church opens Port Harcourt branch

Christos International Worship Centre, headquartered in Abuja, has announced the opening of its first branch in Port Harcourt, Rivers state.

In a statement on Sunday, David Ogudu, the church’s general overseer, said he was previously offered free land in Port Harcourt but God instructed him to decline as it was not yet time.

He added that within a year, Port Harcourt emerged again as the designated location for the church’s expansion.

“I simply did what I had to do. I said yes. He is the master planner and I do not question Him if He gives directives,” the statement reads.

Ogudu further said the official launch of the Christos International Port Harcourt Worship Centre will be a two-phased “prophetic invasion”.

He said the first phase will kick off with a powerful revival service on April 12 and 13, from 5 pm to 9 pm, at a location near the new church building.

He added that the new branch, situated at 99 Egrita Road in Eneka, Port Harcourt, will officially open its doors on April 14, with the theme, ‘Weep No More’.

The cleric said the “prophetic invasion” is more than just an “empty boast”.

He said attendees will experience a “genuine encounter with God’s healing power, comfort, and liberation”.

He also clarified that soul-winning remains his ultimate focus.

“Prophetic Invasion? That will not be an empty boast or just a crowd-pulling gimmick or claim,” he said.

“At this “Prophetic Invasion”, he will bring something wonderful to Port Harcourt; the glorious power of God to heal and make whole, to comfort, bind and unbind all in a bid to give glory to the mighty name of God and bring solace, comfort and victory to the sons and daughters of God. And in all, what matters to Ogudu is to win souls for Christ.”
