    • Daniella E. ★★★★★ I came to GLH in 2022 a very confused person. I never believed that I could grow in my knowledge of God. I didn't believe God could touch me and heal me body, soul and spirit. I understood He could do it for men of God and stranger believers but I didn't believe He could do it for me. But the Lord has done these and far above my expectations since I became a member of GLH. I'm eternally grateful to God.
    • Godson K. ★★★★★ This is not just your regular church gathering, this is a gathering of believers who are striving to be soldiers in god's last day army. A group of young people who are striving to attain the very height God has planned and desires his people to attain. They might not look like it, but God has been and is using this gathering to help the young and older generation to go past just believing God, but having a close walking and talking relationship with Jesus. I absolutely recommend this as a place everyone who is seeking to learn of God and not just hearing about him should go to, and I assure you one thing 'YOU WILL GROW IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE ONE TRUE GOD' GOD BLESS!

    • Idongesit E. ★★★★★ The Pistis Place is an amazing Family! The sermons are transformative. I found a home here and I'm so grateful.
    • Mary A. ★★★★★ Honestly, with Pistis it is different. Definitely a place to be. I’ve realized that I’m not just 'attending' anymore. I’m in a rhythm where every service is better than the last, and instead of feeling 'full,' it’s actually making me hungrier for what’s next. I'd say a "spiritual momentum" When the music, the message, and the atmosphere seem to hit a new high every week, it just creates a sense of anticipation that makes me look forward to the next service as soon as the current one ends.

    • Imikane R. ★★★★★ The experience was surreal; the teaching of the word was simple yet deep, the songs were soul lifting and the congregants were warm and welcoming. If you desire an atmosphere to learn God's word and grow, visit this church.

Every service is a beautiful blend of truth, love, and the Spirit of God, empowering us to live out our faith daily. The commitment to evangelism and raising purposeful disciples is truly inspiring, and the atmosphere of fellowship feels like home. My Vanguard, Pastor Christosin Olalere, has been a tremendous blessing, providing guidance and wisdom that have enriched my life journey.

    • Chibueze P. ★★★★ The location lacks precision, full life Christian center is @ akpan akpatai street uyo.
    • Imaobong E. ★★★★★ Full Life Christian Centre holds two services every sunday by 6.30 am and 9.30am WAT. Go early to have a spot to park your car closer to the premises. It is a place where Gods word works when you receive it in your heart. The worship and praise are also on a different level. These sessions are incredibly uplifting. They have the Echo choir, Classical choir, Acapella choir, Shepherds choir and the Mass choir getting you really involved and prepared to feel God. Rev. Ntias' messages are always insightful and practical. If you want to grow in the faith, this is the community to be. There's something for everyone here, from youth groups to Bible studies to outreach programs. If you're in Uyo and looking for a church with a vibrantly charged atmosphere and a strong emphasis on prayer and personal spiritual growth, I definitely recommend Full Life Christian Centre." Don't be a spectator when there; get involved!

    • Ufuoma A. ★★★★★ Haven't really worshiped there but from what I saw when I visited last, the place looks well maintained and neat. The people within all were well mannered and courteous.
