Renowned pastor, Andrew Umoru unveils international miracle service in Lagos

Renowned evangelist and senior pastor, Pastor Andrew Umoru, has unveiled the inaugural edition of the International Miracle Service (IMS), a global spiritual outreach that debuted in Lagos with a message centered on divine intervention, forgiveness, and transformation.

The maiden service, held on Wednesday, April 15, 2026, at the Paradise Event Arena in Ebute-Metta, attracted participants from across Nigeria and abroad. The gathering was described by organisers as a landmark event aimed at ushering believers into what the cleric termed a “new season of grace and manifestation.”

In his inaugural address, Pastor Umoru said the programme was more than a routine church meeting, describing it as a “divine appointment” with deep spiritual significance. He expressed confidence that the service would trigger “unusual testimonies, undeniable miracles, and supernatural shifts,” raising expectations of healing, deliverance, and breakthrough encounters.

The launch of IMS comes amid growing public interest in the pastor’s recent ministerial direction, including discussions surrounding his administrative status and reported transition from previous affiliations.

Pastor Umoru, widely regarded within and beyond Nigeria’s Christian community, reiterated the need for spiritual depth and doctrinal soundness in worship. He also advocated a return to hymn-based expressions, which he said “prepare the soul” and foster deeper encounters with God.

Organizers disclosed that the International Miracle Service would hold weekly, with worshippers gathering every Wednesday for intensive prayer sessions, prophetic ministrations, and teachings focused on faith, restoration, and divine empowerment.

Attendees have been encouraged to approach subsequent services with readiness and expectation. “Come hungry. Come expectant and come with faith in your heart,” the cleric urged.

The weekly programme is expected to attract increasing participation, particularly in Lagos, where faith-based gatherings continue to play a significant role in social and spiritual life. Organizers also noted that digital platforms would be utilized to enable global participation in the services.
