The Kingsrealm International Summit and Anniversary (KISAN) 2025 was a four-day spiritual program organized in commemoration of the third year anniversary of Christ Apostolic Church Kingsrealm Middlesbrough. The event, held from Thursday 17th to Sunday 20th July 2025, brought together church members, community leaders, and guest ministers for a time of spiritual edification, worship, and celebration.
Christ Apostolic Church Kingsrealm, Middlesbrough officially began in 2022 with just four members. Since then, it has experienced remarkable growth, now welcoming over 150 worshippers. The church was birthed by a campus-based church in Akure, Nigeria—which was dedicated and inaugurated in 2020 by our spiritual father, Pastor G.O. Oladokun, the Chairman and Superintendent of Christ Apostolic Church, Itire District (DCC ITIRE), Nigeria. The establishment of Christ Apostolic Church Kingsrealm in Middlesbrough is an answered prayers to the burning passion of young people to take over nations for Christ. Hence, another campus-based church in Middlesbrough North East of England.
The third year anniversary and summit with the theme: “The Kingdom Man”, aimed to awake believers to their identity, responsibilities, and authority as kingdom citizens, with a focus on order, obedience, and service.
Sunday 20th of July, the last day of KISAN 2025 was both a celebration and a moment of honour, as the church commemorated another year of God’s faithfulness. The Sunday service was graced by several dignitaries, notably: Chris Cooke the Mayor of Middlesbrough, as the Special Guest of Honour, John Kabuye Councilor of Newport and also member of Middlesbrough Council and other community leaders, partners, and guests
The Mayor of Middlesbrough delivered a heartfelt speech, referencing Philippians 2:3:
“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves.” He emphasized the importance of servant leadership, sharing his personal commitment to serve without partiality or nepotism, and encouraged the congregation to uphold these kingdom values in their daily lives. The Mayor commended the church for its positive contributions to the community and pledged his continuous support, including assistance in helping the church secure a permanent place of worship.
The keynote sermon was delivered by Pastor Gideon Oladokun, who expounded on the summit theme: “The Kingdom Man”. He stressed that:
