A Divine Institution in the Service of Salvation
Built on the rock of revelation, the Celestial Church of Christianity deploys its worldwide organization to guide every soul toward the light of Christ.
Administration and Constitution
The Celestial Church of Christianity is not only a spiritual movement, it is an institution firmly framed by a Blue Constitution, a sacred and administrative document revealed to the Founding Prophet. This text governs the principles of operation, rites, as well as the moral and spiritual obligations of each believer. It guarantees the unity of faith throughout the world, ensuring that each parish, regardless of its country, respects the same divine ordinances.
The administration of the Church rests on clear decision-making structures that safeguard the spiritual and material heritage of the community. From the management of parishes to that of dioceses, each administrative level is designed to promote order and transparency. This rigorous organization allows the institution to endure through the ages while remaining faithful to the original vision of the "last ark" for the salvation of humanity.
Patristics
The worldwide influence of the institution rests on the work of pioneers such as Papa Gnansounou, Reverend Bada, Agbaossi, Adjaleko, and Gonsalves. These "Fathers of the Church" stabilized the doctrine and structured the dioceses, sacrificing their lives to faithfully transmit OSHOFFA's mission to the four corners of the globe.

Condemned by medicine after months of suffering from a chronic lung disease, I found refuge in the arms of the Celestial Church of Christianity. Thanks to prayers, sanctification, and faith in the power of the Holy Spirit, doctors observed my complete healing after a few weeks. Today, I breathe life and give thanks to the Lord with gratitude.
Brother Simon
Parish of Porto-Novo
A home rebuilt on the rock: 'My house was on the brink, undermined by constant conflicts and an imminent separation. By practicing the teachings of the Church, praying together, and consecrating ourselves, harmony returned under my roof. The Lord restored love between my husband and me, making our home a true sanctuary of peace.'
Mother Rose
Parish of Cotonou
The invisible hand in the midst of danger: 'During a serious transport accident where the vehicle was completely crushed, I came out unharmed, without a scratch. Witnesses spoke of a miracle. Thanks to the protection taught in our holy institution. That day, I understood that the Lord's promise through S.B.J. OSHOFFA is a real ark that protects us from the waves of evil.'
Evangelist Koffi
Parish of Lomé
Organization and Hierarchy
The Celestial Church of Christianity rests on a spiritual organization where each rank reflects a level of maturity and responsibility. From the faithful to the Pastor, this hierarchy, visible through the stripes on the cassocks, is not a mark of privilege but a call to divine service. It ensures the proper order of worship and the spiritual guidance of souls in perfect harmony.
A Structured and Modern Administration
Beyond spiritual ranks, the institution relies on specialized committees and councils that manage social, educational, and administrative matters. This pyramidal structure imposes rigorous discipline and respect for authority, fundamental pillars that allow the Church to manage millions of faithful around the world with serenity and transparency.
