What God Has Done at Jesus Restoration Centre
Jesus Restoration Centre was not built by human ambition, but by divine direction. What began as a word from God became a vision carried in faith, prayer, and obedience. Step by step, the Lord opened doors, gathered hearts, and established a house committed to restoration, freedom, and purpose.
Through seasons of trust and perseverance, God has continued to grow this vision beyond what we imagined. Lives have been transformed, families restored, and a community of believers raised up with a passion to see heaven filled and lives renewed. Today, Jesus Restoration Centre stands as a testimony to God’s faithfulness and the power of obedient faith.
Our Beginning
- Genesis 12 Calling : God commissioned Pastor Sola Fola-Alade through a prophetic word.
- Stepping Out After 20 Years : Leaving his previous ministry in obedience.
- Launch in 2015 : Started with just 30 people.
- 200+ in 3 Months : 200+ in 3 Months
- Growth & Expansion : Building a thriving community committed to restoration.
Who We Are Today

Over the years, Jesus Restoration Centre has grown significantly, with four locations in the UK and international branches in Lagos, Nigeria, and Houston, USA. We have hosted major conferences, bringing worshippers together from around the world, and even during the COVID-19 pandemic, we adapted swiftly by moving services online, reaching a wider global audience.

Our Beliefs
At Jesus Restoration Centre, we are a Spirit-led community united by faith in Jesus Christ. Our beliefs are grounded in the Bible, which we hold as God’s inspired and authoritative Word. Guided by Scripture, we seek to live holy, empowered lives, grow spiritually, and fulfil God’s purpose both individually and as a church family.
The Trinity
We believe in one God, existing eternally in three Persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and co-eternal, working together in creation, salvation, and the guidance of the Church.
