Welcome to Emmanuel Chapel
Emmanuel Chapel is a vibrant and loving Christian community in Ikoyi, Lagos.
Our name, “Emmanuel,” means “God with us,” and it reflects our deep conviction that God is present and active in every part of our lives. Out of that love, we are committed to glorifying God through worship, nurturing spiritual growth, serving our community, and sharing the love of Jesus Christ with the world.
We are a diverse family of believers from many backgrounds, united by our faith in Jesus Christ and bound together by love. We treasure the unique gifts and stories each person brings, and we strive to be a warm and caring family where everyone is welcomed, valued and loved.
No matter what stage, age or season you find yourself in, you belong here. Come just as you are.

What We Believe
Rooted in God’s Word, Lived Out in Love
At Emmanuel Chapel, a loving church, our faith is built on the truth of God’s Word and expressed through love for God and one another. These are the beliefs that unite our church family.
The Bible
We believe the Bible is the inspired and authoritative Word of God, our trusted guide for faith and life.
The Holy Trinity
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
God the Father
We believe God is the loving Creator of all things, merciful and just, who longs for a personal relationship with each of us.
Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus is the Son of God, fully God and fully human. Out of love, He died for our sins, rose again on the third day, ascended into heaven, and will come again in glory.
The Holy Spirit
We believe the Holy Spirit lives in every believer, guiding, comforting and empowering us, and giving gifts for the building up of the church.
Salvation
We believe salvation is God’s free gift of love, received by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, bringing forgiveness and eternal life.
The Church
We believe the Church is the body of Christ, a loving family of believers called to worship God, make disciples and shine as a light in the world.
The Sacraments
We celebrate Holy Baptism as the sign of God’s grace and our new life in Christ, and Holy Communion as a joyful remembrance of His sacrifice and love.
Christian Living
Christian Living
We believe we are called to live holy lives, loving God with all our hearts and loving our neighbours as ourselves, with integrity, compassion, justice and mercy.
Eternal Hope
We believe in the resurrection of the dead and the final judgment, and in the eternal hope of life with God for all who trust in Christ.
