Mutters Over Absence Of 2 Prominent Bishops At 2024 Shiloh

The 2024 Shiloh event of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, titled Ever Winning Wisdom, made history not just for its spiritual impact but also for the notable absence of two prominent church leaders, Bishops David Abioye and Thomas Aremu.

Their retirement from active service earlier in October has left many Living Faith Church members and Nigerians grappling with mixed emotions at the absence of Bishops Abioye and Aremu at the 2024 Shiloh.

This year’s Shiloh marked the first time since the annual program’s inception in 1999 that these esteemed leaders were not present. Both Bishops were integral figures in the Living Faith Church’s growth, serving as Vice Presidents of the Liberation Mandate under Bishop David Oyedepo. Their absence has sparked conversations on social media, with many followers expressing feelings of loss and uncertainty about the future of the church’s leadership.

The absence of Bishops Abioye and Aremu has left an indelible void, as many attendees felt the event lacked the familiar leadership dynamic they had come to expect. While the church officially announced their retirement, the circumstances surrounding their decision have sparked speculation. Some church members suspect undisclosed disagreements over new administrative changes within the church, particularly its evolving mandates.

On platforms like Twitter and Facebook, members lamented the bishops’ absence at Shiloh and voiced concerns about the church’s trajectory with Abioye and Aremu. “It doesn’t feel like the Shiloh I’ve known for decades without them,” one user commented. Another questioned why these key leaders retired while Bishop Oyedepo, the founder, remains active, suggesting there could be internal issues yet to be revealed.

This sentiment has led to growing skepticism about whether the church’s leadership changes align with its core spiritual values or if they represent a shift toward institutionalization and corporate expansion.

The retirement of Bishops Abioye and Aremu signals the start of a significant leadership shift within the church, with more senior pastors expected to step aside in the coming years. The focus now turns to how Living Faith will navigate this transition while addressing concerns from its followers.

For many members, the absence of these foundational leaders raises larger questions about succession planning and the direction of the church. With Bishop Oyedepo still at the helm, how the church resolves these uncertainties will determine whether it emerges stronger or faces further challenges.

As the Living Faith Church continues its journey, members are hopeful that the institution will stay true to its mission, ensuring that the faith and trust placed in its leadership remain intact.
