Admin/Founder
Elon Prayer Network Int'l Ministry is a faith-based, not-for-profit organization established to serve as a beacon of hope, reconciliation, and spiritual strength. We are a community of believers united by a common commitment to the teachings of the Holy Bible and a passion for humanitarian service.
Leadership The ministry is founded and led by PC Pastor Stephen Afolabi (also known as James Afolabi). His spiritual guidance and administrative leadership have been supported by the Holy Spirit and a dedicated team of great leaders, PC members, and coordinators within Nigeria and the Diaspora, all of whom have laboured tirelessly to bring this vision to fruition.
Our mission began in 2009 as "Pastor Steve on Point," utilizing Facebook to connect with believers. As our community expanded, we transitioned in 2015 to WhatsApp, where we became known as the Goshen Prayer Network—a name born out of dedicated prayer and seeking. Through sustained growth and divine direction, we officially incorporated in 2026 as Elon Prayer Network Int'l Ministry (RC: 9535771). While our name and platforms have evolved, our core commitment to prayer, fellowship, and serving humanity has remained steadfast for nearly two decades.
We believe in the power of fellowship, regardless of physical distance:
Global Fellowship (Google Meet): We host our worship and prayer sessions via Google Meet, fostering unity among members worldwide.
Community Connection (WhatsApp): Our WhatsApp platform serves as our daily hub for prayer requests, reflections, and ministry updates.
Physical Fellowship: For those in Nigeria, we marked a significant milestone with our first physical meeting in January 2026 at the Air Force Base, Port Harcourt, Rivers State. We continue to gather to strengthen our local community bonds and spiritual fellowship.
