A HISTORIC AND GLORIOUS MOMENT IN IRELAND ๐ฎ๐ช WITH BISHOP FRANCIS WALE OKE!
August 15, 2026 will remain a remarkable day in the history of the Church in Ireland and Europe.
In a moment marked by grace, honour and divine purpose, we joyfully celebrate and congratulate Bishop David Richman Olayinka on his Episcopal Consecration, in the presence and under the ministry of Bishop Francis Wale Oke.
As the first Black Pentecostal Bishop in Ireland, this is more than a personal achievementโit is a significant milestone and a powerful testimony of God's faithfulness. Perfectedlight. It is a reminder that when God calls a man, He prepares him, preserves him and positions him for His purpose.
> โBefore I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained youโฆโ
โ Jeremiah 1:5
> โFor promotion comes neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the Judge: He puts down one, and sets up another.โ
โ Psalm 75:6โ7
Indeed, God is still raising leaders, breaking barriers and advancing His Kingdom across generations and nations.
Bishop David Richman Olayinka, we celebrate the call of God upon your life and the grace that has brought you to this historic moment. May the Lord continue to enlarge your territory, strengthen your hands and cause your ministry to impact Ireland, Europe, the nations and generations to come.
May this new chapter be marked by greater grace, greater influence and greater fruit for the glory of Jesus Christ.
> โThe LORD will fulfil His purpose for me.โ
โ Psalm 138:8
Congratulations once again, Bishop David Richman Olayinka, on your Episcopal Consecration!
