National Temple

The National Temple is the Convention ground of The Apostolic Church Nigeria located in Olorunda-Ketu, a suburb of Ikorodu in Lagos State. It is the biggest church in Nigeria and arguably one of the largest in the world with a sitting capacity of over 10,000 worshippers in a service.

In 1969, the annual Lagos, Western and Northern Areas (LAWNA) Convention which was usually held in Ebute Metta was moved to Orishigun, a town in Ketu due to rapid rate of increasing converts. In 1970, the Convention was moved to the present location in Olorunda-Ketu and 1976 annual Conventions started holding place in what is now known as the Old Convention Hall.

In 1979, the first LAWNA Territorial Chairman, late Pastor S. G. Adegboyega laid the foundation of what was to be the National Temple. In 1994, late Pastor Samuel Jemigbon made rapid progress in the construction of the structure in his tenure as third LAWNA Territorial Chairman.

The National Temple, with a sitting capacity of over 10,000, was completed on 19 November 2011 under the pastorship of Pastor Gabriel Olutola who described it as "the House built with prayers" and "a symbol of the church's unification."
