Bishop Thomas Aremu of the Living Faith Church Worldwide has said that he has no plans of opening his own church and will remain with the ministry after his retirement.
Bishop Aremu said this on Tuesday during a valedictory service held at Living Faith Church (aka Winners Chapel), Bashorun, Ibadan. Living Faith Church was founded by Bishop David Oyedepo.
While giving his speech at the event, he said, “God’s presence is my greatest asset. I have seen God in practical terms. He gave me a pastor ( Bishop David Oyedepo) after His own heart in the person of the apostle over this commission. He is my pastor.
“I don’t have a church, and I cannot have a church. This is my church. Even after retirement, I remain in the Winners family,” Bishop Aremu said.
Bishop Aremu was born in 1957. He was one of the eight foundational members of the church in 1983. He began active service as a pastor in 1984.
He was the pioneer pastor of Living Faith Church, Ibadan. He was ordained a bishop in December 1999. His last designation in the ministry was Vice President Mission Inspectorate.
It is the custom of the ministry to hold valedictory services for its ministers who attain the age of 60. However, there are provisions for such ministers to continue serving under the Elongated Service Scheme. Thirty-three ministers are serving under the scheme. The first set began in 2020.
