RCCG G.O Pastor Adeboye Opens Mount
Carmel Prayer Village, Camp In His Hometown
Of Ifewara Osun State 30 Years After 30 years
after he conceived the idea, the general
overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of
God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has
finally opened a prayer mountain.

The camp, which was opened at a relatively
quiet ceremony, is located in Ifewara the
hometown of the respected preacher, some 10
minutes away from the ancient city of Ife in
Osun State.

Elders and pastors from the RCCG family and
dignitaries from Ifewara as well as workers
and volunteers of the project attended the
opening of the facility named Mount Carmel
Prayer Mountain.

Conceived as a prayer village, the facility
boasts of a magnificent mix of sanctuaries,
dormitories, chalets and numerous prayer huts
flowing down the slope of a hill, overlooked by
bigger residential blocks.

There are also halls of various sizes, a
restaurant, bookshop and supermarket.

Welcoming guests at the opening ceremony,
Pastor (Mrs.) Foluke Adeboye, who was in
charge of the construction, revealed that
although the plot of land had been bought
years ago but was lying fallow until about
seven years ago when her husband moved for
its development.

Tracing the origin of the project, she said:
“We had been inspired to build a prayer
mountain by what we saw in South Korea in
1985.

“We went for a David Yonggi Cho prayer
conference there, and one afternoon, they
took the delegates to their prayer mountain,
which we admired so much.

“So since 1985, we had it in our minds that
one day, there would be a prayer mountain of
a similar status in Nigeria.”

Also explaining the name of the prayer
mountain, she said: “We named this Mount
Carmel after the Mount Carmel where Prophet
Elijah defeated the work of the devil. We also
remembered the Mount of Transfiguration.”
Corroborating his wife’s account, Adeboye
said, “When we returned from South Korea in
1985, we decided by this grace of God that
there would be a prayer mountain in Nigeria
that people from all over the world would
come to pray.

“The way I had planned it, the place should
have been built many years ago. But in the
face of the enormous challenges, we resorted
to building a place called “Halleluyah House”
at Redemption camp.”

He went on: “Yet the passion for the prayer
mountain was still burning in my heart. I
believed that by the time I was 60 years old,
we would have built it but it was not possible.

“When I was getting to 70 years old, I
remembered that every year after 70 years of
a man on earth is extra time.

“To ensure that the dream would not die, and
efforts that had been made would not be
fruitless, I called my wife and gave her the
responsibility to build this prayer mountain.”
