Rooted in Christ, Growing in Faith and Mission
The Diocese of Lagos is the premier Diocese in the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion), founded on 10 December 1919, with deep historical roots in the evangelical movements of the 18th century.
From its inception, the Diocese has stood as a beacon of faith, committed to the call to glorify God, edify believers, and multiply disciples.
Our mission is to advance the work of evangelism across the Diocese and beyond planting new churches, strengthening those in need, empowering the youth, supporting the aged, and enriching the spiritual lives of parishioners through purposeful programmes; with the vision of transforming every congregation within the Diocese into a vibrant, Christ-centred community.
