The Man Behind the Message

Shaped by Grace, Sent with Purpose

2009Founded GGC
15+Years of Ministry
100+Nations Reached

Born in Nigeria and raised in the rich soil of evangelical Christianity, Apostle Harrison Elekwa encountered the grace of God in a way that permanently altered the trajectory of his life. What began as a personal awakening to the radical love of the Father quickly became a divine commission to carry that message to others.

In 2009, he planted Glorious Gospel Centre in the heart of Leicester, UK — a city and a congregation that would become his life's work. From the very first gathering in a borrowed hall to the thriving multi-cultural community it is today, his singular vision has remained unchanged: to make the grace of Jesus Christ so clear, so compelling, and so inescapably personal that people cannot walk away unchanged.

His teaching ministry spans continents. As a sought-after conference speaker and apostolic voice, he has ministered across the UK, West Africa, Europe, and North America — always with the same message at the centre: the finished work of Christ is enough. His sermons blend scholarly depth with uncommon pastoral warmth, consistently pointing listeners not to more effort, but to a greater revelation of who they already are in Jesus.

Alongside his public ministry, Apostle Harrison is a committed husband, father, and mentor to a rising generation of leaders. He and his wife, Pastor Chinwe, lead GGC together — modelling the kind of grace-filled family life they preach from the platform.

Ministry Vision

Three Pillars That Drive Everything

Unveiling Christ

2 Corinthians 4:6

Every sermon, every gathering, every conversation — Apostle Harrison's deepest aim is to make Jesus more visible. Not a set of rules, not a performance standard, but a person. The revelation of Christ changes everything it touches.

Equipping the Saints

Ephesians 4:12

The pulpit is not a performance stage — it's a training ground. Apostle Harrison is committed to building a church where every member understands their identity in Christ and is equipped to walk in it Monday through Saturday.

Discipleship & Leadership

2 Timothy 2:2

Multiplication is at the heart of ministry. Through intentional mentorship, leadership cohorts, and one-to-one discipleship, Apostle Harrison is raising a generation who will carry the grace message further than any one pulpit can reach.

“The gospel is not a message about what you must do — it is the announcement of what Christ has already done.

Family

Life Together, Inside the Home

Behind the pulpit and the platform is a family who genuinely lives what they preach. Apostle Harrison and his wife, Pastor Chinwe Elekwa, co-lead Glorious Gospel Centre with a shared conviction: the grace that transforms a congregation must first be visible inside a home.

Together they are parents to three children, and family life is not incidental to their ministry — it is the proving ground for it. The Elekwas are intentional about modelling healthy, grace-filled relationships, and their openness about the joys and challenges of family life has encouraged hundreds of couples and parents within the GGC community.

Pastor Chinwe leads the GGC Women's Ministry and is a gifted teacher in her own right, with a particular heart for women stepping into their identity in Christ. Together they embody the belief that ministry begins, and is sustained, at home.
