Yesterday Monday March 23, 2020 will ever remain historic as Christ Apostolic Church, Olushi Zonal Headquarters commenced the building of her 5000 capacity ultra modern cathedral.
At the declaration and commencement service, the Zonal Superintendent of Olushi Zone, Pastor (Dr.) J.B Olajide noted that the church just started the building of her own church auditorium since her establishment almost 50 years ago.
Pastor Olajide disclosed that when he was transferred to the Zone, as the second Zonal Superintendent, it was his expectation to meet a very big cathedral that matched the big name CAC Olushi has, even bigger than where he was transferred from, but to his surprise it wasn't so.
According to him, he was almost discouraged but heard a voice in his ears that "it's a challenge to you" hence, building Olushi Cathedral has become his vision since then.
The Cleric appreciated his predecessor, Pastor Samuel Idowu Obafemi; the Akinyele Regional Superintendent, Pastor M.O Yusuf who was in attendance; CAC Wolrdwide Missions Director, Pastor C.S. Fasuyi; the Baba Ijo of CAC Olushi, Elder Akinola Fashina; the building committee headed by Elder J.A Oluwayomi; and the entire members of the church for their understanding and support so far.
The ultramodern Cathedral building project kicked off with a sum of Seven Million Naira (N7,000,000.00) out of about One Hundred and Fifty Million Naira (N150,000,000.00) quoted.
In his words of encouragement, Akinyele Regional Superintendent, Pastor M.O Yusuf gave kudos to CAC Olushi for taking the giant step.
Pastor Yusuf who was admonishing from Psalm 24 stated that God made everyone what he/she is today, saying there is nothing you can become outside God.
He added that everyone should do the work of God, saying it is one of the ways to appreciate God for the things He has done for us.
He reiterated that what we do for God now on earth is the reward we will get in heaven.
"If you fold your arms and didn't join or support the work of God, the work will be completed right in your presence. This building work is a challenge to you and me," he said.
