OWO ANGLICAN DIOCESE

It is with a joyful heart that I therefore welcome you all to this Website of our dear Diocese, so that weare kept abreast of what is going on within the Diocese as well as members of our diocese who reside outside the Diocese.

We would like to thank those on our media team who are working behind the scene to bring these information to us. We shall appreciate your input and trust that together we can work together. Owo Diocese: Arise and shine (Isaiah 60:1) God bless you all as I hope that you will enjoy visiting the website. Sincerely,
The Rt.Rev’d Stephen Ayodeji Akinwale Fagbemi.
