SCOAN Holds First Thanksgiving Church Service On Sunday

After 21 months of closure and public suspense on reopening, the Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) will from Sunday, December 5, 2021 begin live services at its Ikotun-Egbe headquarters in Lagos.

The late Prophet T B Joshua, the Founder and General Overseer of the ministry had in March 2020 suspended the regular Sunday services following the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Till his passing on June 5 this year, the church remained under lock unlike other churches which had commenced services since last year. Joshua had said that he was “yet to hear from God on the church reopening, we will only reopen when we receive an instruction to do so from God.”

There has been a lot of pressure from members globally for the church to resume services after the passing of Joshua but the church’s new leadership under Prophetess Mrs Evelyn TBJoshua maintained the position of her late husband that “the reopening of the church for normal Sunday services will only commence with the intimation of the holy spirit.”

Besides, the mourning period of Joshua would have been over.

The SCOAN has its own fair shares of the usual leadership and succession tussles in human affairs. But the few disciples who caused the crisis at the SCOAN have now retraced their steps.

I tell you categorically, God would never forsake His own. The Synagogue Church Of All Nations is alive. Glory be to God !”
