Archdeaconries

YEWA SOUTH-WEST ARCHDEACONRY


We cannot but give glory and praise to God and our Lord Jesus Christ for the life of wonderful people like Chief Mrs. J.B. Mautin, JP and Late Chief E.O. Fagbohun, who was the Baba Ijo of St. John’s Church, Ihunbo. They were the frontiers people pulled, confronted and advised to catch the vision and mission of creating the new Archdeaconry. Also the Parochial Church Council of St. John’s Anglican Parish Church, Ihunbo and other churches under her for their support.
The church has vibrant youths, only that they reside outside the Archdeaconry because of their studies in higher institutions and white-collar jobs. A Nursery and Primary School has been established at the headquarters while teachers have been employed and paid as at when due.
We give kudos to all our fathers in the Lord who have served in the churches comprising the Archdeaconry. Revd.Canon J.O. Orukotan now Venerable Orukotan, Revd. Canon J.S.S Wusa (now Venerable), Revd. Canon S.B. Olaniru and their wives. Also Revd. and Mrs. Z.A. Abodunrin, Revd. and Mrs. A.O. Kolade and host of others. May the Lord increase and strengthen them and bless their ministries.
