Pastor Adeboye Shares How Rev. Uma Ukpai Strengthened Him When He Lost His Son

  • Pastor Adeboye, shared how he drew strength from evangelist Rev. Uma Ukpai after the sudden loss of his son over three years ago.
    • Pastor Dare Adeboye, the third child of Adeboye, passed away on May 4, 2021, in Eket, Akwa Ibom State, where he lived with his family.

    Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the leader of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), shared how he drew strength from famous evangelist Rev. Uma Ukpai after the sudden loss of his son over three years ago.

    Pastor Dare Adeboye, the third child of the 82-year-old Adeboye, passed away on May 4, 2021, in Eket, Akwa Ibom State, where he lived with his family. He was married to Temiloluwa and had three daughters.

    During a special service on Friday, January 10, at the International Worship Centre in Uyo for Rev Ukpai’s 80th birthday, Pastor Adeboye shared that Ukpai’s strong Christian faith supported him during his toughest times. Ukpai had tragically lost two children in a car accident.

    In Pastor Enoch Adeboye’s words:

    “If you really, really want to serve God, then you must be ready to serve him whether things are pleasant or not. In the darkest moment of my life since becoming a Christian — when I lost my son without notice — my son called me on a Sunday evening and said, ‘Daddy, the weekend programme was extremely successful. Glory be to God, thank you for your prayer support.’ The next thing I heard on Tuesday night was that my son was gone.

    I had to preach on Friday, and one reference point that gave me strength was Uma Ukpai. I know he lost more than one child in a day, yet he did not waver. He kept on serving God. He gave me strength at a time when I needed it most”.
