Conference President
The Lagos Central Baptist Conference serves as the collective body representing Baptist Churches situated in the central district of Lagos State, Nigeria. It plays a vital role in fostering meaningful connections and spiritual growth among believers while promoting the Baptist faith and values within the region.
The historical development of Lagos Central Baptist Conference recognizes the selfless efforts of the founding fathers, especially those who formed the Lagos State Baptist Conference on August 11, 1973 at First Baptist Church, 24, Broad Street, Lagos Island. The efforts of church planters who grew the number of churches from 28 to over 800 are highly recognised and appreciated.
As Baptists, we proudly uphold our reputation as people of the Word. Our focus is on nurturing individuals into men of prayer, praise, and deep biblical understanding. Through our teachings and practices, we aim to build a community rooted in faith, spiritual communion, and a profound connection with God's Word.
Associations serve as collective bodies representing Baptist Churches within specific regions under a Conference. These gatherings facilitate cooperation, fellowship, and coordinated efforts among member churches. They provide a platform for shared resources, mutual support, and a unified approach to various ministry initiatives, fostering stronger bonds within the Baptist community.
Each month carries with it a unique tapestry of divine blessings. You are cordially invited to join us as our distinguished conference president extends a warm welcome to usher you into the new month.
