| ABOUT US: The revelation first came to the late Apostle Joseph A. Babalola by the Holy Spirit on October 1928 followed by a powerful revival and the establishment of Christ Apostolic Church in Ilesha, a town in Osun State, Nigeria. Since this time, the spirit of Pentecostalism/Evangelism has never been the same in Nigeria till today. Nigeria remains the International headquarters of Christ Apostolic Church. Following the footsteps of late Apostle Joseph A. Babalola, Christ Apostolic Church of America, Inc. was founded in 1981 by Apostle (Dr) T.O. Obadare, the founder , “ Winning of Soul Evangelistic Ministry”, who had a burning desire for souls of Nigerians and other nationals abroad. CHURCH HISTORY: It was on the 15th of July 1979 at a revival conducted by Prophet T. O. Obadare of the World Soul-Winning Evangelistic Ministry [WOSEM] -that a prophecy came out. A woman who prophesied for more than 2 hours during the revival program spoke God's message to the prophet and said that God wanted him to take the gospel to his citizens abroad who have neglected to follow Christ. Based on this prophetic instruction, Prophet Dr. T. O. Obadare brought the Gospel to United States and Europe starting in 1981. He founded Christ Apostolic Church of America, Inc. a/k/a Christ Apostolic Church WOSEM. (C.A.C.WOSEM). Although there have been series of persecutions, the prophet had endured by the grace of God. The work has expanded to many states in the USA, Canada and Europe. There are presently about twenty eight (28) churches throughout the U.S. and Canada This is all about the eagerness of God towards His creations. We are a religious non-for-profit organization established under the Internal Revenue Code of the United States of America. On October 11, 1992, the church in New York was re-established due to the devil's attack on the church. Although there were merely four members in attendance on that day but to the glory of God by the end of the calendar year of 1993 the membership enrollment had increased to over thirty five. The growth was achieved through the continual assistance of the Holy Spirit as He crowned the efforts of the Revival Committee and the entire membership of the church. By the end of 1994, membership had increased to sixty. By 1996 our yearly revival was conducted in our newly acquired church building at 108-02 & 04 Sutphin Boulevard, Jamaica, New York. Glory be to God, we currently have an average membership of two hundred and forty people in Queens Assembly alone. Following the instruction of Christ, this church has gone ahead to plant more churches in Brooklyn, NY; Bronx, NY, Philadelphia, PA; and Bridgeport, CT. To the glory of God, this church now serves as both the New York District Headquarters and the National Secretariat of the Ministry throughout the USA. |
