Celestial Church of Christ – Covenant of God Parish


Welcome to the glory of God, Celestial Church of Christ – Covenant of God Parish. Our parish was established in 1993 in South East London (UK). The Church was founded by the will of the ALMIGHTY GOD in a two-bedroom flat of Hon-Most-Evang. J. Femi OMOGBAI on Wednesday, 20th October 1993, with 17 members.

On Friday, 22nd October 1993, during the power day service, the name of the Church was revealed through spiritual inspiration as “COVENANT OF GOD.”

The aim and objective of our church are to propagate the Ministry of Christ and to worship in Unity and Love. The Parish moved from the residence of Hon-Most-Evang. J. Femi Omogbai to Wheatsheaf Community Centre SW8 in 1994, and in 1995, we moved to 9 Brighton Terrace in Brixton SW9.

Presently, the LORD has blessed us with our own building, including a vicarage, situated at 12 St. Aubyn’s Road, Upper Norwood, LONDON SE19 3AD in 1997. This is a testament to the promise of God fulfilled amidst His true chosen ones. Therefore, dear brethren in Christ, join us to worship Christ together.

A Brief History Celestial Church of Christ


The Celestial Church of Christ was founded by Samuel Joseph Bilewu Oschoffa, a former carpenter born in Dahomey (now the Republic of Benin) in 1909. Raised as a Protestant (Methodist), he had a divine revelation on 27th May 1947, during a solar eclipse, in a forest where he was lost.

The Celestial Church of Christ is a spiritual church recognized worldwide for its unique way of worship, an indivisible Holy Church that came into the world from heaven by DIVINE ORDER on the 29th of September 1947 in Porto Novo, Republic of Benin. Its founder, Samuel Joseph Bilewu Oschoffa, was later called into God’s glory in 1985.

The Celestial Church of Christ (CCC) was officially recognized and authorized by the Republic of Benin in 1965.

Since the late 1990s, this church has shown its willingness to use the Internet as a privileged means of evangelization, allowing the many existing branches of the church within the African Diaspora (United Kingdom, Germany, Austria, France, and the USA) to connect.
