History

Dunamis International Gospel Centre was established on November 10, 1996.[4] A church service was held there for two weeks before the church moved to the Abuja Sheraton Hotel & Towers, where worship took place for about six months.[5] [6] [7] The church moved to its own worship location at Area 1, beside the Old Federal Secretariat in Abuja, in June 1997, less than a year after the ministry started. The ministry has several branches worldwide.[8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

Glory Dome

On November 24, 2018,[13] [14] [15] the new international church headquarters, known as the Glory Dome (or glory sanctuary), was dedicated. It has a 100,000 capacity auditorium.[16] [17] [18] [19] [20]

The Glory Dome sits on an expanse of land referred to as the Lord's Garden, situated on the airport road in Abuja, Nigeria.[21] Its foundation was laid on September 14, 2014, and construction took four years from 2014 to 2018 with its roof built by Geometrica Incorporated.[22] [23]

Church collapse

On Friday 3 October 2023, Dunamis International Gospel Centre's North Bank branch in Makurdi, Benue State, Nigeria collapsed, killing pastor Emmanuel Ahmed and leaving 4 others injured.[24] [25] The senior pastor of the commission Paul Enenche visited the scene.[26] The state governor Hyacinth Alia also visited the church.[27]
