About Us
Over the years, to God’s glory, Victory Parish Miami has been consistently known for vibrant and glorious praise, awesome worship and effectual and fervent prayers, with lives being transformed daily and burdens lifted. Also, as soldiers of Christ in VPM, we understand from God’s Word that we do not wrestle with humans but against unseen forces of evil that require spiritual weapons as taught in Ephesians Chapter 6 verses 10-20. We fight by these weapons and God remains faithful and true to His Word that says that the gates of hell shall never prevail against His church (Matthew 16:18). Victory Parish Miami (VPM) continues to wax stronger and stronger, to God’s glory.
Victory Parish Miami is a hospitality hub where we do not forget to entertain or share with gladness and simplicity of heart, with those within and without. Newcomers are received as they are, guided through formal orientation to be transformed by the renewing of their mind through God’s Word and His Spirit. Best of all we encourage a consistent lifestyle as ambassadors of Christ, that will draw men to Him.
Our church can be found both online and in-person and you are invited to join any of our services. We look forward to meeting you.
Our Mission & Vision
-To raise a generation that will impact God’s kingdom and their society.
About The Pastor:
Pastor Chris E. Ogali
Pastor Chris Ogali is a man of great faith in God. He believes that with God, nothing shall be impossible. By the grace of God, he combines this with passionate worship and praise and God has continued to be faithful to Him. He loves to pray effectually and fervently as a way of life. Jesus Christ through all of these, by His Spirit, has continued to be the mainstay of his walk with God, a walk which he began over 35 years ago.
As a professional accountant who was running his own accounting and insurance businesses having worked for several years in top management in both sectors, Pastor Chris Ogali committed his heart, time and resources to the service of God. This later took him to serve as an official in the Victoria Island, Lagos Full Gospel Businessmen’s Fellowship and later to the Ikoyi/ Victoria Island Parish of the Redeemed Christian Church of God. Here he served diligently and faithfully as pioneer praise band leader, a Sunday School teacher and in various other capacities as his pastor assigned to him. He was later appointed as a minister to assist a Parish Pastor. From here, he was sent to pastor a new church in Lagos Island. By the grace of God, he was able to purchase land in a prime location, put up a building to which he relocated the church from the rented uncompleted building where it had started. He pastored the church until he got the call to move to the United States of America. Before relocating, Pastor Ogali properly handed over the church (congregation and building) to a couple whom God sent to him miraculously to pastor.
Pastor Chris Ogali has continued to grow through many conferences, seminars, and workshops. He attended the Haggai Institute for Advanced Leadership Training in Singapore as well as the RCCG Bible College Victoria Island, Lagos. These exposures fired up his zeal for missions and church planting. He planted, by God’s grace, with his wife, some churches while in Lagos. He took literally the notion that, with a congregation of 100 people one could plant 5 churches, by the grace of God.
Pastor Chris Ogali moved to Miami, Florida in 2001. Here, a pastor of a new church that was having conflicts was led to hand over the remnants of the church to him. Pastor Ogali accepted under one condition, that he first of all fulfill his mandate to plant a church in Miami. This he did and thus started his mission in Miami with him supervising two churches from the onset. Pastor Ogali later taught his team that despite the challenges, with some sacrifice, church planting even in the prevailing climate was achievable. Out of these two churches, six more were planted. Out of the eight parishes, six are standing strong to date. Moreover, leaders have been raised who should be able to stand firm and lead others in righteousness.
