Since the death of Apostle Ola-Ojo 20 years ago, the church has been sustaining his legacy of compassion with the distribution of foodstuff and other support to the needy every month.

Pastor Adaramola said the distribution of foodstuff was in the spirit of the late Apostle Ola-Ojo, who left the legacy of compassion outreach to the less privileged.
“Sunday September 28, 2025 is the grand finale of ‘Compassion Outreaches’ to all our branches in Nigeria, which we commenced September 2024.
“We shall be distributing foodstuff to all worshippers. This huge programme is powered by committed members of the church nationally and friends of the ministry,” Pastor Adaramola disclosed to Sunday Independent.
