Apostle Emmanuel Iren, the visionary founder and Lead Pastor of Celebration Church International (CCI), is set to launch a series of free learning centers in Ibadan, aimed at providing educational opportunities and skill acquisition programs for residents of all ages.

The initiative reflects Apostle Iren’s unwavering commitment to community development and empowerment. The learning centers will offer a diverse range of programs, including vocational training, adult literacy classes, and youth mentorship schemes, designed to equip individuals with practical skills and knowledge essential for personal and professional growth.

“Education is a powerful tool for transformation,” stated Apostle Iren. “Our goal is to create accessible platforms where individuals can learn, grow, and contribute meaningfully to society.”

The facilities are strategically located to serve various communities within Ibadan, ensuring that residents from different neighborhoods can easily access the programs. Each center is equipped with modern amenities, including state-of-the-art classrooms, computer labs, and resource libraries, to provide a conducive learning environment.

This project is part of a broader vision by Apostle Iren to foster holistic development within communities. In addition to his pastoral duties, he has been instrumental in various initiatives that blend faith, education, and entertainment to reach a wider audience. Notably, in 2024, he ventured into filmmaking with his debut movie, ‘What About Us?’, aimed at spreading God’s message through creative storytelling.

The learning centers are scheduled to commence operations in the first quarter of 2025, with registration details and program schedules to be announced in the coming weeks. This initiative is expected to impact thousands of lives, providing them with the tools needed to achieve their full potential.
