My dear Chairman,

The news of your passing to Glory came as a rude shock to me. I was devastated when it was done on me that you are no more in this earth. You are a pillar to so many people, many of us that crossed your path are on top of our chosen careers because of your various trainings, guidance and supports. You raised so many business leaders, captains of industries, business owners and landlords through your guidance and financial supports. Your good works will continue to keep you alive in our hearts. 

The only solace I have is that you have gone to rest of all your labour and the good Lord will grant you eternal rest.

Adieu my great Chairman.

We are deeply saddened by the sudden passing of Elder Pius Olarewaju, Life Patron CCC, Rehoboth Parish London. He was a cherished member of Celestial Church of Christ worldwide, and his spirit and kindness touched many both at home and abroad. We remember his dedication to our community and the joy he brought to our gatherings. We're expressing the hope that Elder Pius is now in the loving care of a higher power Almighty Jehovah.

May God comfort his family and the church during this time of grief. Apostle Paul wrote these words to the Corinthians, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort." (2 Corinthians 1:3).

With sympathy,

Sister Ibi & Family.

“My sincerest condolences for the loss of our beloved father. His spirit lives on in the lives he touched so deeply.”

“All Members of CCC Omoalade Alafia  and Olarewaju Family,

Please accept my deepest sympathy as you navigate this tough time. Your father was a remarkable person who brought joy to so many lives.”

TRIBUTE TO LATE ELDER PIUS IGE OLAREWAJU

Grand Patron, Celestial Church of Christ, Omo Alade Alafia Parishes

Daddy,

Writing these words still feels unreal. You were not just an Elder or a Grand Patron to us; you were a father in every sense of the word—a shelter, a voice of wisdom, and a steady pillar in the household of faith.

As a daughter in the Lord, I remember your warm hospitality with deep gratitude. Your doors were always open, your table always ready, and your heart always wide enough to receive all who came—young and old, rich and poor. In your presence, no one felt like a stranger. You had a rare grace of making people feel seen, valued, and at home.

Daddy, your love for the needy spoke louder than words. You gave quietly, consistently, and compassionately. Many lives were lifted through your kindness—school fees paid, needs met, burdens eased—often without seeking recognition. Truly, you lived the Scriptures: “He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord” (Proverbs 19:17). Heaven surely records what many of us may never fully know.

Your leadership was marked by humility, firmness, and godly counsel. As Grand Patron of Celestial Church of Christ, Omo Alade Alafia Parishes, you led not by force, but by example. You stood for peace, unity, and righteousness. You encouraged the weak, corrected in love, and strengthened the work of God with your resources, prayers, and presence. You were dependable—when Daddy said, “I will do it,” it was as good as done.

Personally, I will always cherish your fatherly advice, your prayer life, your heart of giving, your sacrifice towards Imeko Basilica  and the way you believed in us, the younger generation. You taught us that Christianity is not only what we say in church, but what we live out daily—through love, service, and integrity.

Daddy, your race was well run. You fought the good fight. You kept the faith. Though we mourn, we do not mourn without hope, for we are confident that you have gone to rest in the bosom of the Lord you served faithfully.

Thank you for a life well spent. Thank you for loving us. Thank you for leading us.

Sleep on, Baba wa.

Sleep on, faithful servant.

Your memories remain a blessing, and your legacy lives on in our hearts.

— A Daughter in the Lord

A TRIBUTE TO OUR PILLAR

Our hearts are heavy, and our souls are deeply wounded by the sudden and shocking loss of our beloved uncle and pillar of strength to our entire family. Scripture reminds us that “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints” (Psalm 116:15), yet this truth does not remove the pains in our hearts.

There are losses that shake us, and then there are losses that change us forever. Your sudden departure has left our hearts heavy, our minds confused, and our family standing in shock. We were not prepared to say goodbye so soon.

You lived as a gift from God to us. You were more than an uncle - you were a father to many, a counselor, a protector, and a steady voice in times of uncertainty. You carried the weight of the family with strength and quiet sacrifice, always showing up. When others were unsure, you stood firm. When others were in need, you gave - freely and selflessly.

You were our pillar, our support system, the one we leaned on without fear. The gap you leave behind cannot be filled.

It hurts deeply that you are gone. Your legacy is written not only in memories, but in lives shaped by your kindness, discipline, and love.

Though our hearts ache, we are grateful for the years we had with you. We are grateful for the impacts, the sacrifices you made, and the love you poured into this family. Your life was a gift, and your memory will forever be our guide.

Though your departure was sudden, we take comfort in the hope of Christ. “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain” (Philippians 1:21).

Rest well…

The Ogunniranyes 

The sudden passing of you has left a silence that words can barely fill. This loss still feels unreal, and my heart aches as I try to come to terms with it. You were not just a father to me; you were a pillar, a guide, a strength behind the person I am today.

You believed in me even when I doubted myself, spoke life into my dreams, corrected me with love, and stood firmly by me in moments when I felt unsure. So much of what I am today is tied to your influence, counsel, discipline, prayers, and example. Thank you for believing when belief was costly, for giving when giving was inconvenient, and for standing when walking away would have been easier.

Today, every step I take forward carries your imprint. Every achievement bears evidence of your influence. I am better, stronger, and more purposeful because you chose to invest in me. My life is a tribute to your kindness, and my future will continue to reflect your legacy.

Your sudden departure has reminded us how precious life is and how deeply one life can shape many others.

I remain forever grateful.

Gabriel O.
