Sunday 8th May, 2016 was the Celebration Sunday for the 35th Anniversary of Winner Chapel. With a newly completed International Minister's Conference in Canaan Land, the church's head quarters in Nigeria, many of the ministers were around to join in on the celebration.
But the congregation saw a different spectacle when Papa and Family knelt down in front of Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye who leads the Redeemed Christian Church of Good worldwide.
As has been explained, Bishop Oyedepo credits Pastor Adeboye for some of his early guidance steps in his Christian Missionary journey. So he still introduces him as his spiritual father.

On May 2nd, the exact date Winners Chapel turned 35, Pastor Adeboye video link message included that he was happy for his spiritual son for the exploits that has thrust Winners Chapel to a global limelight.
Winners Chapel has grown by leaps and bounds and continue to do so. It is known for often having some of the largest auditorium for worshippers in most cities.
It's current Auditoriums at its Canaan Land Head Quarters in Nigeria seats 50,000 with four services held each Sunday. In spite of that, several tens of thousands are usually seated in tents outside the main auditorium.
The church is currently building a new 100,000 strong capacity Faith Theatre that will serve as the new service auditorium.
The new facility billed for commission later in 2016 will be bigger than London's Wembley Stadium that seats some 80,000 spectators.
