About Us - Christ Faith Church North America

ABOUT US

CHRIST FAITH CHURCH NORTH AMERICA

Christ Faith Church North America is a Bible-based, evangelical, Pentecostal church with global roots in Nigeria. Founded through the ministry of the late Archbishop Dr. Daniel Udo Otong in 1957, the church began as a humble house of prayer after a 40-day and 40-night fast and has since expanded across Africa and now into North America.

Motto: Christ the Sure Foundation

Our North America Story

Founded by the grace of God in April 2024, our first official worship service was held on Easter Sunday in the home of Reverend Uyobong Richard Udo and Dr. Blessing Udo.

In August 2025, during our annual Fire Conference, we moved into our first dedicated worship space at:

2090 Sugarloaf Parkway, Suite 235, Lawrenceville, Georgia.

From here, the Lord continues to grow a house of prayer, worship, and discipleship.

What We Believe

In the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ
In the Trinity — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
In the baptism of the Holy Spirit
In water baptism by immersion
That the Bible is the inspired Word of God and manual for life
That the Church is called to holiness, worship, prayer, evangelism, and discipleship

Our Mission

To remain a house of prayer for all nations, fulfilling the Great Commission by making Disciples of Christ—transforming lives, families, and communities for the glory of God.

Our Vision

To raise a praying, spirit filled, and heavenly minded church that reaches the nations with the gospel of Jesus Christ, builds disciples, strengthens families, and transforms communities through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Leadership – North America

Lead Pastor – Reverend Uyobong Richard Udo:

Called to ministry with a passion for prayer, teaching, and missions, Reverend Uyobong continues the legacy laid by the founding Archbishop. In 2018, he completed a 40-day and 40-night fast, marking a major spiritual milestone.

Co-Pastor – Dr. Blessing Udo:

An anointed teacher of the Word and woman of prayer, Dr. Blessing strengthens discipleship, spiritual formation, and family ministry within the church.

Together, they provide pastoral covering and leadership as the ministry advances in North America.

Our Roots – Nigeria

Founding Father & Mother:

Christ Faith Church honors the legacy of the late Archbishop Dr. Daniel Udo Otong and Arch Deaconess Marit Daniel Otong. Through prayer, fasting, and obedience to the Holy Spirit, they established a ministry that continues to bear fruit across generations and nations.

Early Pillars of the Ministry

God raised faithful men who stood beside the Archbishop in the early years, shaping the spiritual and organizational foundation of the ministry:

Late Reverend Richard Udoudo – First Assistant Bishop and biological father of Rev. Uyobong Richard Udo
Reverend John Akpan Essien
Reverend James Akpan Udoidiong

and many more men and women of faith.

Their commitment, loyalty, and sacrifice remain honored in the history of Christ Faith Church.

Current Bishop – Christ Faith Church Nigeria

We honor Bishop Abasiakan Daniel Otong, consecrated in 2000 after years of faithful service alongside his father, the late Archbishop Dr. Daniel Udo Otong. His consecration, conducted alongside the late Archbishop Dr. Elijah Mboho of blessed memory, marked a significant moment of generational continuity.

His Vision

Bishop Abasiakan Otong carries a clear apostolic vision to expand the church and reach the unreached through missions, evangelism, and discipleship as the church advances into new territories.

Looking Ahead

As Christ Faith Church grows both in Africa and North America, we remain:

Rooted in prayer
Guided by the Holy Spirit
Committed to the Great Commission
Anchored upon Christ the Sure Foundation
