Pastor Theophilus Owase

"My Dearest Brother & Friend, Esteemed Pastor Theophilus Ozii Owase, Gallant Soldier of the Loveworld Kingdom. The time has come for your body to be committed to mother earth, even as your soul has gone to be with the Master, our Lord Jesus Christ, whom you served with total loyalty and dedication under our Man of God, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome. Thank you for the short yet impactful life you lived. Heaven bears testimony of your good works. May the Holy Spirit comfort your family and the brethren you left behind. May your gentle soul rest in perfect peace until we meet at the Resurrection Morning. **Ọkhin ewiẹ, obhiaba mhen.**"

"Dear Beloved Pastor Theo You were a man of such warmth. I will always remember meeting you for the first time when you came to the UK. You were even much more warm. I recall my first time in Nigeria you wanted to make sure I was comfortable and said lunch is on me buy anything. Pastor Theo you were one of a kind, the only one like you in every which way. I am glad I had the privilege of knowing you on this side of heaven. You promised me a blue carpet and when we meet I expect nothing less. I love you dearly and I will miss your warm smile."

"TRIBUTE TO MY BELOVED BROTHER, PASTOR THEO — PEE TEE Dearest Pastor Theo… PEE TEE, as I fondly called you… Today and always, I will celebrate the life you lived in Christ—a life of purpose, service, love, and impact. PEE TEE, you truly lived your name, THEOPHILUS—a friend and lover of God. I admired the way you loved and cherished people. I admired the way you loved and cared for children. I watched how you honoured everyone who was your boss at different times in ministry, and I learnt so much from your humility, loyalty, and respect for leadership. Growing up, everything about you was about God. You served Him and loved Him with everything you had. Your life was a testimony of devotion and commitment to the things of God. Your passion for the vision as delivered to us by our dear Man of God was contagious. Your diligence, resilience, and faith to impact your world and everyone within your sphere of contact were unparalleled and truly worth emulating. My beloved brother, words can never truly express how much you meant to me. You treated me with so much love, kindness, and respect. After our dear mum passed away 19 years ago, you honoured me not merely as your only sister, but as a mother. That place you gave me in your heart is something I will cherish forever. PEE TEE, you were just one call away........... You checked up on all of us every day. You cared. You were always there! Family ia a value you held dearly.... What a saint you are! You were a brother who cared deeply, showed appreciation, and made me feel valued. Your love and respect brought me so much joy, and I will forever be grateful to God for the beautiful bond we shared. Your absence has left a deep emptiness in my heart. Words cannot truly elucidate how much I miss you, my brother. I have unconsciously dialled your number several times over the past few days, only to remember that you are no longer at the other end of the phone. I miss your voice. I miss your presence. I miss your kindness. I miss the way you made me and your brothers feel loved, valued, and honoured. Though you are no longer here with us in the flesh, the memories of your love, your service, your laughter, and your impact will remain in my heart forever. I thank God for giving me a brother like you. I take strong solace in the Scripture that says, “To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.” I hold firmly to the Holy Spirit, our Comforter and Advocate, who strengthens us in this season of loss. Your numerous works of faith and your impact on the lives of many will live on. The seeds you planted through your love, service, sacrifice, and devotion to God will continue to bear fruit. You lived a life of purpose. You lived a life of service. You lived a life of faith. You lived a life that pointed people to God. Rest peacefully, my dear brother, Pastor Theo. You are deeply loved, greatly cherished, profoundly missed, and forever honoured in my heart. PEE TEE you are forever in my heart and your memories can never be forgotten Your legacy will live on. And your love will never be forgotten. sleep on, rest peacefully my beloved brother, we will see at the resurrection morning. I love you endlessly my brother Pastor Rita Owase-Adeboyejo Sister"

"TRIBUTE TO PASTOR THEO Words cannot fully express the gratitude in my heart for Pastor Theo. Today I celebrate a life that changed mine forever. When I gave my life to Christ as a student at Kenyatta University, it was through Believers Loveworld (BLW). I was discipled by Pastor Evans and Pastor Victor, who faithfully served under Pastor Theo. Through their ministry, I encountered Jesus, and my life has never been the same. I thank God for Pastor Theo, who answered the call of God and left his home in Nigeria to come to Kenya with a heart to reach university students with the Gospel through the ministry of Pastor Chris Oyakhilome. Because of his obedience, BLW was established in our universities, and countless lives, including mine, were transformed. Through that ministry, I came to know who I am in Christ. I discovered the truth that Christ in me is the hope of glory, and that in Him I live, move, and have my being. Those truths have shaped my walk with God and continue to anchor my life every day. Pastor Theo, thank you for saying yes to God's call. Thank you for pouring your life into raising disciples and winning souls. Your labor in the Lord was not in vain. I am one of the many lives that bear the fruit of your obedience, and for that I will always thank God. Though our hearts are heavy, we rejoice because you are now in the presence of the Lord whom you served so faithfully. Until we meet again at Jesus' feet.

"Some people don’t just preach the Gospel—they become living examples of it. Pastor Theo was one of those rare men. He was a man completely resolved for the Gospel. His life was poured out in service to God and in raising others. One thing that always stood out to me was his unwavering passion to see young people’s lives transformed. He believed in people long before they believed in themselves. He loved deeply, encouraged generously, and always wanted the very best for everyone he encountered. I first met Pastor Theo in 2011 when I had just joined university. I was passionate about starting a campus fellowship, so I reached out to him on Facebook. To my surprise, he responded and soon informed me that he would be coming to Rwanda to help establish the campus ministry. Looking back today, I can confidently say that the foundation I received through those campus ministry trainings is one of the greatest reasons I am still standing firm in the faith today. Pastor Theo saw potential in me that I had not yet fully discovered myself. He challenged me to become relevant in the Kingdom and taught me to remain steadfast regardless of the circumstances. As the years have passed and I have now become a pastor myself, I find myself drawing constantly from the wisdom, discipline, and convictions he imparted. His words to never give up on the work of the ministry and never yield to pressure continue to echo in my heart. My last encounter with him was on 9th June 2026 during MBTC. I specifically requested to meet with him because I needed guidance on some important matters, and there was simply no one else I desired to speak with more than him. We spent nearly an hour together, and he spoke words of wisdom, direction, and encouragement that ministered deeply to me. At the end of our conversation, I told him, “If this was the only reason I travelled to Nigeria, then God has answered my prayer.” I left that meeting strengthened, encouraged, and deeply grateful. Today, I thank God for the gift that Pastor Theo was to my life and to countless others around the world. His impact cannot be measured merely by the messages he preached, but by the lives he transformed, the leaders he raised, and the unwavering faith he inspired in so many of us. Thank you, Pastor Theo, for believing in me, for investing in me, and for showing me what a life fully committed to the Gospel looks like. Your legacy lives on in every life you touched, and I will forever be grateful. Rest well, dear Pastor T. Your labor was not in vain."

"Pastor Tee, as you were fondly called, I never had the privilege of meeting you in person, but through the wonderful things shared by loved ones, it is clear you were love personified, selfless in service, and a gallant soldier for Christ. ​You will be deeply missed, but your incredible legacy will live on forever. We love you dearly. Keep resting in the bosom of your Creator."
