This was stated in a document dated January 5, 2024, with the subject “Invitation of Guest Ministers in RCCG.”
Pastor Oladele Balogun, the Special Assistant to the General Overseer (Admin), signed the letter, which was sent to pastors and leaders overseeing regions and provinces across the globe, along with continental overseers, deputy continental overseers, and assistant continental overseers.
