WEALTHY PLACES Church Thanksgiving : Abia, Enugu, Ebonyi Write History Together
…Faith, Culture and Destiny Converge in One Glorious Worship.

NDI OMA ABIA, ENUGU NA EBONYI!
On Sunday 6th September 2026, history was made.
The Wealthy Places Church Thanksgiving Service became a melting pot of praise as brethren from Abia, Enugu, and Ebonyi States converged in one spirit, one faith, and one family.
This was not just church.
This was a divine homecoming — a reunion of people bound by shared roots, shared borders, and a shared God. The atmosphere was charged with God’s presence and was further lifted by a soul-stirring ministration from renowned gospel artist, Segun Odubanjo.
FROM THE ALTAR: A HEART FULL OF THANKS
The Founder and Head Pastor, Evang. Dan C. Daniels, with Pastor Mrs. Patience Daniels, led the church in gratitude to God and to man.
“We thank God and we thank everyone for making this Thanksgiving a huge success. We all made it happen.
What moved me most was the unity, the creativity, and the love that flowed between our pastors and members.
We are a blessed people. Your sacrifices will not be in vain. God will surely answer you at the point of your need. Amen.”
A special highlight was Little Princess Nissi, whose beautiful presentation of the bouquet brought smiles, joy, and innocence to the service.
HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE
The church paused to celebrate Bro. Chigozie Onyeike, Leader of the Abia/Enugu/Ebonyi Group, for his vision and commitment.
Bro. Chigozie, thank you for your doggedness and leadership. You created an atmosphere of love that made this gathering a blessing to all,” the church noted.
Responding, Bro. Chigozie called the brethren to deeper unity:
“As we anticipate the next host state, we will collaborate with our pastors and leaders to foster fellowship and spiritual growth on this platform.
Thank you all… One Love ”

*EBONYI: Named after the Abonyi/ Aboine River. Known as _ The Salt of the Nation”_ because of Okposi and other salt lakes.
HISTORY & CULTURE
*ENUGU — THE COAL CITY: Coal discovered in 1909 turned Enugu into the industrial and railway heartbeat of colonial Nigeria.
*BIRTH DATES: _Abia_ was born Aug 27, 1991 from Imo. _Ebonyi_ followed Oct 1, 1996 from Enugu & Abia.
COMMITMENT TO THE FUTURE
In 2026 budgets, these 3 states lead the South-East in education:-*Enugu: 32.21% — meeting UNESCO’s global standard

A clear sign that the next generation is a priority.
