The remarkable story of God's calling and the establishment of RCCG Green Pastures Sanctuary
On April 28, 2007, Pastor Ayobami Oyebami attended a minister's conference where God planted the seed of calling. Like a seed in fertile ground, God's message was clear: "Be different" and the divine name was revealed - RCCG Green Pastures Sanctuary (A Place of Blessed Abundance).
Like a plant beginning to sprout, Pastor Oyebami initially hesitated. But on October 8, 2009, God's voice was unmistakable: "Get ready or become a resident prison evangelist." The seed of calling began to break ground as he resigned from his attorney career to follow God's path.
After months of prayer and fasting, the Holy Spirit revealed the next phase of growth: relocate from Maryland to El Paso, Texas. Like a plant reaching toward the light, Pastor Oyebami moved with his family to the place God had prepared for the green pastures to flourish.
The green pastures began to bloom! From house fellowship with 16 people in November 2010 to the first Sunday service in February 2011, and finally moving to the current location with 54 people in April 2011. God's garden was taking root and beginning to flourish.
The green pastures have flourished beyond imagination! From 2017 to the present, RCCG Green Pastures Sanctuary stands as a testament to God's divine establishment - a true place of blessed abundance where lives are transformed.
Following Pastor Ayobami's transition to glory, Pastor Olubunmi Oyebami has faithfully continued nurturing these green pastures, ensuring God's vision continues to bloom and bear fruit in every heart.
