The Head of the United States of America Diocese of Celestial Church of Christ, Assistant Most Superior Evangelist Joseph Olorunishola has expressed his heartfelt condolences following the transition to glory of late Venerable Superior Evangelist Solomon Oyelade, Head of Region A, USA Diocese.
AMSE Joseph Olorunishola described the late VSE Solomon Oyelade as a complete and devoted man of God, a loyalist, dedicated servant and a fulfilled man who lived with a clear sense of mission. According to him, the late Regional Head made significant contributions to the growth and establishment of Celestial Church of Christ in the United States of America.
He recalled that late VSE Oyelade was among those whose commitment helped lay the foundation for the continued presence of CCC in the United States of America, particularly through the establishment of the church in Washington, D.C., in the early 1970s.
AMSE Olorunnisola further noted that VSE Oyelade’s service to Nigerians extended beyond the church.
