Family Life

Pastor Adeyemi is married to Pastor Mrs. Adenike. They met while he was a pastor at Rhema church.

At the time, she says it was not love at first sight. In her words, “I really did not have much feeling for him, but as time went on I heard God tell me that he was the man for me.”

It was a different story for Pastor Adeyemi, who says, “My heart did not deceive me when it exclaimed, “This is the kind of a girl one should marry,” the first day I chatted with you. I sure understand how Adam felt the first time he sighted Eve. I followed my heart and the rest, as they say, is history.”

Like her husband, she is in charge of many organizations including ‘The Real Woman Foundation’ founded in 2001.

Their union is blessed with three lovely children.
