Our Founding Pastors
Apostle John & Rev Stella Ebegbuna
Tree of Life International Churches began in the living room of Apostle John Ebegbuna and Rev Stella Ebegbuna — a small gathering of people hungry for the presence of God. What started as a home fellowship has, by God's grace, grown into a family of over fifty branches across several African nations.
From the very beginning, our founding pastors carried one conviction: that the church exists to be passionate about God and passionate about people. That same passion still shapes every TOLIC branch today, from the cities to the villages.
Apostle John and Rev Stella continue to serve as General Overseers of Tree of Life International Churches, leading with a heart for discipleship, prayer and the raising up of the next generation of Godly leaders.
