About My Family
I am originally from Lagos, Nigeria, and made the life-changing decision to move to the United States in 2016 to pursue a degree at the Reformed Theological Seminary. During my time at seminary, I developed a strong foundation in theology and a deep burden to reach immigrants in the United States with the transformative message of God’s grace.
About My Church Plant
Manna House’s vision is to establish a gospel-centered, culturally-sensitive Christian community in Charlotte, reaching immigrants and anyone who appreciates such a nurturing space. Unfortunately, the challenges of adapting to a new culture and the allure of Western self-sufficiency can draw immigrants away from their faith. We recognize that we are all spiritual sojourners, awaiting our eternal home.
Our primary goal is to be an earthly home for new and old immigrant sojourners, serving as a landing spot that addresses their spiritual, physical and community needs. We aim to reach out to these new individuals before the cares of this world carry them away from their faith, with the ultimate aspiration of equipping these immigrants to, in turn, reach their neighbors for Christ.

NAMB Church Planting
Millions in North America are in desperate need of hope. Ultimately, the only hope that’s going to last - in this life and the next - is the hope of the gospel. North American missionaries build relationships and share this hope in their communities and beyond.
