RCCG Worldwide
Victory Centre Oxford is a part of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) worldwide. The general overseer of the church is Pastor E.A. Adeboye. The RCCG was founded by Nigerian pastor Josiah Akindayomi (1909-1980).
After being involved in several churches, he founded the Redeemed Christian Church of God in 1952. In the early 1970s pastor Akindayomi started to look for a successor, claiming that God had told him to find a young, educated man who was not at that time a member of the church. He chose Enoch Adejare Adeboye, a university lecturer who joined the church in 1973.

We value the Family!
We believe God ordained the family to glorify him. We are committed to cultivate an atmosphere which promotes spiritual growth within the family by reaching families with the gospel, discipling them in Christ-like character and teaching each family member how to fulfill their God-given role.
