About The Grace Trybe
OUR HISTORY
The vision of THE GRACE TRYBE (formerly known as house of grace ) began in the latter part of the year 1997. The decision to start the ministry was taken in September 1997 God told us clearly ” Nobody has the patent to God … go help my people become all I created them to be and all they want to be in me ….. “
The first service of the then house of grace was held on the last Sunday of November 1997
at our residence on the outskirts of lagos with about 20 people in attendance including our gate man and his six children . The rest they say is history .
The church has since grown from that initial 20 people to thousands with ministry arms ,branches, campus fellowships , cell site churches ,missions outreaches within Nigeria and outside the country. It’s been a walk of faith ,hope and love .
A dynamic church of influence, demonstrating the virtues and excellence of Christ, breaking boundaries and walls, releasing people’s potentials to be all they were born to be.
To raise a people who are His expression.
