About | RCCG Jesus House Abuja

Our Story

A house planted in Abuja for the glory of God.

Jesus House Abuja was raised up to be a sanctuary in the centre of the nation, a place of worship where the presence of God is the priority, where the Word of God is preached with fire, and where every soul that walks through the doors leaves with an encounter.

From a small gathering in Durumi to a thriving congregation of over a thousand souls today, the journey has been nothing short of grace. Generations have been raised, marriages restored, leaders formed and destinies launched into purpose.

We believe Sunday is the beginning, not the end. Through our cell groups, mid-week formation, School of Disciples and outreach arms, we equip every believer to walk in their calling and reach their world for Christ.

Why We Exist

Vision & Mission

01 — Vision

To raise a generation that pursues hard after God.

A community where every member knows Christ intimately, walks in purpose powerfully, and impacts the world authentically. A parish that is a beacon of light in Abuja and a launchpad to the nations.

02 — Mission

To make heaven, and to take as many with us.

We preach the gospel without compromise, disciple believers into spiritual maturity, plant churches, and serve our community in the love of Christ — until every soul in our city has heard the Name of Jesus.
