It is true that death on earth is not a barrier to us at all, aside that we will be missing our General for a very short period of time. We boldly receive the Barton passed to us from our General and with this Barton, I personally increase my soul winning to three weekly in commemoration of his departure. So help me LORD

March 23, 2021

The General, your life itself was the bible that reached the hearts of many. Your humility yet authenticity was enough to make people want to know Christ, you were worth every listen, dearly admired and highly emulated. My greatest pain is the loss the earth would face to the absence of such a presence. Thank you for being you Sir, thank you for impacting my life, thank you for answering The Call. You’re are the literal meaning of one in a million.

Till we meet to path no more, salute!!!

March 23, 2021

Dear Pastor Bola, a passionate and faithful General in whom is no guile. Full of love, ever smiling and ever ready to serve.

You took a bow when the ovation was loudest in this year of Preparation. What a glorious exit! What a delight to the righteous.

For..." to be absent from the body,....is to be present with the Lord.
2 Corinthians 5:8 KJV

Now you are dancing with other Saints on the streets of gold at your arrival to hear the most precious words from our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, "Commending his servant, the master replied, ‘You have done well, and proven yourself to be my loyal and trustworthy servant. Because you have been a faithful steward to manage a small sum, now I will put you in charge of much, much more. You will experience the delight of your master, who will say to you, “Come celebrate with me!” ’
Matthew 25:21 TPT
See you soon at the Rapture, dear brother and incomparable Son of my Father Pastor Chris.

My deepest condolences to beloved Pastor Jay, Timothy and Isabelle. Our Lord comfort and strengthen you at this time. You are in my prayers. Blessings.

March 23, 2021

Baba wept like a child, he asked God why it wasnt him that He took. Bjay, you served God with everything. You led a life of sacrifice and selflessness. You large smiles, your large heart, your prayers, your encouragement i will miss and more. I will miss you too much. I pray the God of all comfort will comfort Sis. Jemine and the children, kehinde, folake, Baba and your other siblings ; and by extention all of us. Love you and see you at the feet of Jesus.

March 23, 2021

Dear Pastor B as you were fondly called by many who knew you as a devote Man of God, you will be truly missed. I have known you for over 30 years, from way back Auchi Polytechnic in Nigeria. Our paths crossed again in Canada and you remained a true friend and brother. You were always ready to help, putting others before yourself and always having good counsel for all. In your simplicity you were a man of courage and strength.

I met with your lovely family when I immigrated to Canada and you were out there for me, to ensure that I settled down well. I trust that you have replicated yourself in them. Your lovely wife and children are courageous soldiers and I thank God for the loving husband and caring father that they celebrate today!
Pastor Jen you are in our thoughts and prayers. Above all, we are there for you, as we continue to share good memories of your darling husband and father of you wonderful children.

We celebrate your life, until we meet in glory! Rest on Pastor Jegede Daniel Bola!

March 23, 2021

Thank you Pastor Sir, for for your steadfast tenacity in the Word. Your gift to issue the prophetic word, blessed and set me in my divine destiny. You made an impact in my life and especially my daughter. Thank you for your kindness towards us. Thank you for teaching me about honoring my spiritual leaders, for example when a Pastor is praying, you stand up. I am excited to see you when we are all raptured. I know you are singing, laughing, so full of Joy for you are now with our Lord Jesus Christ. Hallelujah!

March 23, 2021

Pastor Bola was my brother, friend. He was a christian indeed and in truth. His legacies, impact cannot be gainsaid. They will live on. It is sad i will not see here here again, but i know where he has gone to, that gives me consolation.

March 22, 2021

My dearest Pastor, Elder brother and my burden keeper, still cant believe you have gone. Well, rest in the bossom of our lord Jesus for I can only give God all the praise for the uniquely blessed life you lived.
However, words can never express how blessed i have been to have you in my life since the 80s!

Lord Jesus, continually strengthen our families especially now!

Love you forever Pastor.

March 22, 2021

Thank you Pastor Bola Sir. The warmth you directed towards me from the start could never be explained humanly, little wonder though because you weren't human but the very embodiment of God's love. I still remember how you woke up at midnight and prayed for me till I fell on my knees consumed with God's presence. I will miss you Sir. The trip to Toronto with you and back, what an experience.

Thank you for all the investments made in my life. I love you. God strengthen your family.

March 22, 2021

Hmmm! Pastor Bola you are such an amazing personality. You were friends with the high and mighty, mostly with the low and lonely. You always leave a footprint in the hearts of those you come in contact with...your laughter and discipline for the work of the Master is most admired. You have done well sir! I was looking forward to having a chat with you at THOHP, but I will have to wait for that chat as we meet in the sky with Lord... I will see you soon ❤

March 22, 2021

Oh Pastor B, it’s hard to believe we now refer to you in past tense . Each time I was privileged to be where you were guarantee there’ll be a word of prophecy “thus says the spirit..” I admired your hard work and dedication to the work of the ministry. To me , the general has taken his seat.. rest in heavenly peace Pastor.

March 22, 2021

Pastor Bola,
I LOVE YOU! You always made me feel seen, heard, and LOVED!
You give the best hugs and never fail to hold my face in the palm of your hands...no matter how much makeup I had on, lol. whenever I brought it up, you would say “won’t you fix it after? Okay then, let me hold your face”

I spoke in new tongues when I heard the news. I love you so much Pastor Bola. I will always look for you after programs to greet you.

The two are indeed one, Pastor J, you are strong, ma. thank you for comforting me during this time. You are selfless. What you shared with me will always ring true...I see him when I look in your eyes!

It is well! I look forward to seeing your bright smile, when we are caught up in the sky Pastor B

March 22, 2021

Pastor Bola will not be forgotten, happy times I could never regret. Your wonderful memories will live on forever in our hearts.... Pastor Bola's legacy lives on in us.

March 22, 2021

Thank you for being my father.
Having you as my dad was the best thing ever.
Your kind... unparalleled!

You flew all the way from Ottawa to Toronto just to celebrate with me on my graduation. That.... is embedded in my heart forever; I’ll never forget.

Your special care for my family and I.

The counsel, rebuke and prayers, all to ensure I walked the right path.

But dad you promised you’ll walk me down the aisle when that “fine brother” comes ... and we didn’t discuss change of plans. What happened then?

Irreplaceable Pastor B. One in a million Pastor B. “My Naa” as you fondly called me.

Thank you for being a true definition of Christ’s love.
Thank you for assuring me you loved me dearly. The last text from you confirmed you did.

I love you and I’ll miss you.

March 22, 2021

Pastor B! Still processing this, it's like a dream really. Blessed to have known you. You were loving and kind. Always called on my birthday. I'll never forget the words you told me once, many years ago. I have seen those words come to pass in my life, thank you for yielding to God and I'm grateful you gave your life wholeheartedly to the cause of Christ. My heartfelt prayers for comfort and strength are with his wife, children, church family, extended family and all his loved ones. Indeed you ran your race with grace. We will miss you so, so dearly.

March 22, 2021

The last time I show pastor B , was a month a go at a wedding. Last year September you prayed and prophesied in my son's life on his birthday. I can't believe you are gone pastor B. Thank you for all the words of God you preach to us and prayers, also the prophecies. You will be really miss but never forgotten.

March 22, 2021

My Daddy, Pastor, Protector, Advisor and Laughing partner. Meeting you filled a space that was void. You made me enjoy the love of a father again. I talked to you about everything. You directed me to things that mattered and scolded me when there is a need. Thank you for mentoring my significant other. You have made him so strong. Daddy, I will miss you and your early Sunday morning phone calls when you will ask " Mary-Kate where is your husband?", But I am glad that you will always be a part of the Asante-Antwis. We love you, daddy. Rest On. Enjoy the room services. I Love you. Its the daughter you love
Mary-Kate

March 22, 2021

I am still in shock. But we have this hope that we shall meet again and always be together. And that time is not so far away.
Pastor Bola, the liquid love of Christ truly flowed through you. We could see Christ in you every time we met you. This is truly a painful time for us in Canada Region. We truly miss you.

March 22, 2021

Scrabble brought us together in Golan Heights 32 years ago.
I am here to celebrate your life and the measure of its worth.
It’s been a privilege to have known you. We were family, not just friends.
Our friendship is forever. Until death, did we part.
Although you’re away physically, you’re always in my heart.
Good night, Bola Daniel Jegede.

March 22, 2021

I truly treasured working with Daniel since I met him 5 years ago. He was knowledgeable, well presented and always looked into how he could help with the situation. It’s a great loss for everyone who met him in his life. May he Rest In Peace and my deepest sympathy goes to his family.

March 22, 2021

Pastor B you have been a blessing to my family. Your kindness and love. Your hugs at the end of every service. I pray that God strengthen Pastor J and the kids.

March 22, 2021

Pastor B, when nobody was there for me in my darkest hour, you stood by me. You encourage me, prayed with me, called me in the deep winter of 2016 when I have no home to call me own. Your life is one of a great man that has gone too soon Sir. I will always love you come what may.
You are indeed a man of God, your passion for Christ and love for humanity is second to none. You in collaboration with Pastor Kehinde brings out the fire in Ottawa. REST IN POWER PASTOR B

March 22, 2021

Dear Pastor B, thank you for being who you are. Last time I saw you, you hugged me , told me you loved me and prayed for me and my wife; this was just a month ago. I was not ready for this news but we are not of those without hope, till we meet you again via the first flight; good work done Sir. You were a great father. My most favorite tie was a gift from you.
Thank you for teaching me God's word and blessing my life. Medaase!

What a loss, what great loss..
I know that we can't question God, but at this time, I have no choice, but to ask, God... why? Why JEGEDE? A true friend and a great brother.
Why why why????
Jegedize you will forever remain in my heart,
May Jah rest your Soul Peacefully in Paradise.

Words fail to describe how I’m feeling! I’m at a loss for words.
To a father, Friend, mentor, Pastor sir
It was just a month ago I saw you .. we were jokingly planning for the next meet where I’d have a proper photo shoot with you .. you telling me you’d have plenty suits so you could change, I held onto that and the countdown till we were to see again was closing only to hear of this!
Thank you for the guidance, the leadership, the love, the care! the constant check in with me.
Heaven has gained a great General

Pastor Sir I miss you , and I love you dearly!

I salute God's General. I thank God for the opportunity He gave me to know you for the past 7 years as my Pastor. My consolation is knowing I will see you Sir when the trumpet sound .
Thank you Sir for your impact, your life , the word you shared . I love you Sir.

March 22, 2021

March 22, 2021

Such a nice person in every word, kind, funny, helpful, we always had a laugh every time we would meet. Man I will miss those encounters for sure. We have lost a great gentleman.
All my condolences to the family

March 22, 2021

Although I only knew Daniel for a very short time, I quickly realized that Daniel was the embodiment of joy, humility, selflessness, a strong desire to help in any way, and a true model of devotion.
I always appreciated every chance encounter with Daniel…always feeling better after meeting with him. Though I knew him briefly, it was evident that Daniel lived his faith.
As believers, we all long to hear the words spoken by Christ and recorded by Matthew (25:21) “Well done good and faithful servant…Enter into the joy of your Lord.”
Daniel has indeed entered into the joy of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer.
A sad time here and now, but I will rejoice when we meet again.
To Daniel’s family and friends, take comfort in God’s gospel.

March 22, 2021

OlaoluwaPastorB!
My personal person. I miss you. You were always so mindful of me and treated me like a daughter. You were always there to answer all my questions about ANYTHING. And you always showed me and others the love of Christ. I love the way you loved God and I admired your relationship with the Holy Spirit.
Nobody on this earth can fill your shoes.
I miss you so much.
I thank God for the opportunity to have known you. You’ve been such a huge blessing to me. I love you and I thank God for your life

March 22, 2021

You will live on in the hearts of your family, friends and colleagues. Rest in peace, my friend.

March 22, 2021

Dear Pastor Bola,
Where do I begin? Do I start from Warri where I met you or in Canada where you continued soldiering on as a faithful? You were always dependable, trustworthy and faithful. You were humble, friendly and loving.
I know the scripture says ...."and to be with Christ; which is far better" Phil 1:23
Also, in Philippians 1:21,
"For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain."
You have gained my brother and worthy son. Presently, I will miss you, but you are always in my heart.
The comfort and strength of the Holy Spirit will be upon Pastor Jemine, Timothy and Isabelle.
Love Always.
Rev Ray Okocha

His Life

All about Pastor B

March 23, 2021

Pastor Bolarinwa Daniel Jegede was born on the 1st of September 1967 at Ososo in Akoko-Edo Local Government Area of Edo State, Nigeria, to Late Major Michael Adeyemo Jegede and Late Madam Comfort Abiodun Jegede. Pastor Bolarinwa is the 6th. Child and first son of the Jegede family.

Pastor Bola had his elementary education at Command Children in the Yaba area of Lagos, Nigeria and proceeded to Command Secondary School in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. He later went to Auchi Polytechnic, in Auchi, Edo State, Nigeria, where he studied Accountancy.

Pastor Bola later performed his one-year compulsory National Youth Service (NYSC) to the nation after graduation at Kaduna State in Nigeria. After his one-year compulsory youth service in Kaduna, Pastor Bola got employed with a private Accounting firm in Warri, Delta State, where he met his wife, Pastor Jemine and they got married on the 6th of June, 1998 in Warri. In 2001, their first child, Timothy Alvin Jegede was born.

Pastor Bola, a dedicated leader at Christ Embassy Warri, was later sent out to pioneer two outreach fellowships at Ekpan and DSC from 2000-2002. In 2002, he relocated with his family to Mississauga, ON, Canada where in 2008, a second beautiful child, Iszabel Atinuke Jegede, was added to the family. Shortly thereafter in 2005 Pastor Bola was formerly ordained a pastor in the Christ Embassy Canada region where he contributed immensely to the expansion of God’s kingdom until the time of his ascension to glory on March 20, 2021.

Professionally in Canada, Pastor B possessed several decades of accounting & SAP expertise. He has deep knowledge of business operations and core processes. Being a Certified SAP consultant with strong ability to successfully lead complex projects made him to be sought after by many corporations. He worked as a Finance Lead and management level SAP Consultant for several multi-national corporations with one of his key roles being the SAP & Finance Manager with Deloitte Consulting.

After leaving Deloitte, he setup his own consulting outfit (Alvin Hayes) and through this platform, he continued to consult for several fortune 500 organizations.

His last role was as a consultant with the Government of Canada before his ascension to glory.

Pastor Bola’s ministry work was exemplary. He Served loyally and dutifully under several of our CEC members and Regional pastors in the Ministry.

Ministry Work In Warri - From 1994 to 2002 as the Senior Pastor In 1992 Pastor Bola joined LoveWorld Nation and he attended LoveWorld Ministerial College (LMC) in 1995. In 1999, Pastor Bola was sent out as a missionary in the newly pioneered Christ Embassy Ekpan Satellite Church. At the time, the membership strength of the Church was just about 7. This Church eventually grew to well over 300 alongside 2 new Churches pioneered within the 3- Year period with a track record of being the highest giving church after the mother Church in those days, until Pastor B. left for Canada.

Today, majority of the Leaders Pastor Bola raised within the period in review are now Pastors and coordinators of Mega Churches across the LoveWorld Nation, including in Warri, Port Harcourt, Abuja and many cities in Nigeria and abroad.

Ministry Work In Canada Pastor Bola was truly an embodiment of the Ministry Vision, an Ardent follower of our Man of God Pastor Chris, an Excellent Mentor with the heart of a Shepherd. Pastor Bola continue the ministry vision immediately he arrived in Canada and was part of the headquarter church, then in Sheppard avenue. Like in Warri Nigeria, Pastor Bola was sent out as a missionary to pioneer a new church in Brampton (Now Brampton West) in 2003. From then, he was sent to pioneer a new church in Etobicoke (Now North York) in 2004. He then moved to take over the Mississauga church in 2005. With his vison and passion, Pastor Bola was transferred to take over another church in Etobicoke (Now Etobicoke Central – Norseman – Toronto South) after Pastor Lanre Adewoye and Pastor Seyi were transferred permanently to Ottawa to continue their mission in 2009. He was then moved to Hamilton church in 2015 to continue his missionary work by Pastoring both Norseman and Hamilton church with his lovely wife Pastor Jemine as the resident Pastor in Norseman. Pastor Bola was giving a higher portfolio to be the group Pastor of the Mississauga group of churches in 2019 till he was transcended unto glory. Pastor Bola passion was contagious, and his faith always produce results. Pastor Bola hunger for God’s work was deeper and strong and demonstrated the Character of the Spirit of God in all things. He combined faithfully his ministerial work with his secular job and excelled in both successfully. Pastor Bola truly demonstrated exceptionalism, perfectionism, and expansionism of the Love-world nation. He won several partnership and achievement awards during his time here. Pastor Bola lived a life of blessings, love, joy, and kindness. His love for people was legendary and always interested in the welfare and happiness of those around him and those that were just introduced to him. Pastor Bola checked out from here to be with the Lord on March 20th, 2021 at the age 53. Pastor Bola was and will remain a legacy unto all that he impacted and will be dearly missed by all. His family,
