Pastor Theophilus Owase was more than a minister; he was a spiritual architect, a compassionate mentor, and a beacon of unwavering faith. Born on March 24, 1982, into the loving home of Late Elder Peter and Late Deaconess Christiana Owase, he was the sixth child in a family of seven—an upbringing that cultivated his deep humility, resilience, and profound sense of responsibility.
His academic journey laid the groundwork for a life of discipline and excellence. A product of St. Charles Secondary School (1998–2002), he went on to pursue a degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering at Ambrose Alli University (AAU), graduating in 2007. Though he honed his professional skills during a practical training year at TOTAL Energy in 2006, his true calling was already taking shape in the spiritual realm.
Pastor Theophilus’s decades of active ministry were defined by a rare combination of profound biblical exposition and boundless empathy. As a global ambassador for the Gospel, he organized impactful programs across East Africa, West Africa, and Asia drawing thousands into the Kingdom. Under his visionary tenure, the BLW Zone A Zonal facility at AAU saw monumental physical and spiritual progress—including structural completion, land expansion, fencing, and critical infrastructure development.
Beyond the pulpit, his passion for community development and youth mentorship was undeniable. Believing that faith was best expressed through compassionate action, he established outreach initiatives that fed families, supported students, and built enduring bonds of unity across diverse communities.
While his transition in July 2026 leaves a deep void in the hearts of his family, congregation, and the countless lives he touched, his spirit lives on. We celebrate a journey faithfully run, a race well fought, and a Kingdom impact that will echo across generations.

"Pastor Theophilus Owase (My Big Brother) Today I celebrate not a loss, but a legacy. A preacher of the Gospel with fire in his bones and truth on his lips. A shepherd after God’s heart — a lover of men with compassion in his hands. Caring. Generous. Selfless. Always giving. Always serving. Always pointing souls to Jesus. He was more than my cousin. He was my brother, my covering, my blessing. He didn’t just proclaim the Word — he became the Word. He fed the hungry, prayed for the broken, and made room at his table for everyone. Christ-like in character. Kingdom-minded in purpose. Heaven has gained a true servant. But his faith, his love, and his gospel work will echo in us for generations. Rest well, my dear brother. “Well done, good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of your Lord.” Matthew 25:23."
"Thank you Pastor Sir, for being an inspiration to us all. You lived the Gospel, and didn’t just preach it."
"May your soul rest in peace and may the good lord comfort all in Jesus name, Amen"
"In Loving Memory of Pastor Theophilus Owase A faithful servant of God. A beloved son, brother, and friend. To me, he was a brother-in-law whose life pointed everyone to Christ. Pastor Theo was called and he answered. He served God with his whole heart in the pulpit, in prayer, and in quiet acts of kindness. He had a burden for souls and a love for the word. His preaching was simple, deep, and it stirred faith. He mentored the young, encouraged the weary, and carried people in prayer. He was generous with his time, his counsel, and his resources. In church and at home, he made everyone feel like family. He was a pillar, steady, dependable, and full of wisdom. The church has lost a diligent worker. The family has lost a strong support. Heaven has welcomed a faithful servant. We grieve, but not without hope. Well done, good and faithful servant. Rest in the Lord, Pastor Theo. Until we meet again. Pastor Vincent Okpibhi"
"My Pastor, My Teacher, My Mentor, My God-given Instructor for a particular season in my life, I am most grateful to the lord that I got to meet you in my life time. A pure demonstration of love and inspiration. Farewell my papa."
