THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF NIGERIA, IJESHATEDO PARISH
According to Dante Alighieri: 'From a little spark may burst a mighty flame.'
The church began when some brothers from St. Peter’s Presbyterian Church of Nigeria, Ebunwana Edda, namely: Emmanuel Eni Ikpe, Elias Agwu, Uduma Ukwu, and Okam Udu, and others doing business in Ijesha-Tedo felt the need to start a church in the area.
THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF NIGERIA
The Presbyterian Church of Nigeria is one of the oldest Christian denominations in Nigeria. Its roots trace back to the nineteenth century when missionary activities from the Church of Scotland and the United Presbyterian Church of Scotland reached West Africa. This movement of faith was part of a wider global missionary expansion that sought to spread Christianity, education, and medical care during the colonial era.
