The Full Life Christian Church (FLCC) presently headquartered at the 5000 capacity Noah’s Ark, Uyo yesterday conducted the groundbreaking ceremony for the 50,000 capacity Crown of Glory Sanctuary in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. FLCC led by Pastor Ntia I Ntia is presently the largest single church in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria.
The landed property known as GLORYLAND was purchased a few years ago and subsequently announced plans for a 50,000 capacity auditorium on Sunday 21st August 2022. Yesterday 4th February 2024 was however the groundbreaking ceremony for the mega project with Dr Pastor Paul Enenche of Dunamis International Gospel Centre on hand to break ground on the occasion.
FLCC was established in June 2000 by Pastor Ntia Ntia and her Noah’s Ark auditorium is presently the largest single church in Akwa Ibom State. The Crown of Glory is thus the second largest church building project in South South Nigeria and one of the top 5 ongoing projects in Nigeria:
