…Daystar’s Sam, Nike Adeyemi lead charge

More than 1,000 pastors, church administrators and ministry leaders from across Africa and beyond will converge on Lagos from July 16 to 17, 2026, for the inaugural Global Church Systems Conference (GCSC), a two-day summit designed to equip churches with structures for sustainable growth and long-term impact.

The conference, which will hold at Daystar Christian Centre, is themed: “Building Sustainable, Scalable, Spirit-Led Church Systems” and is anchored on the belief that while vision drives ministry, effective systems are essential to preserve and expand that vision.

Leading the summit are the founder and senior pastor of Daystar Christian Centre, Pastor Sam Adeyemi, and co-founder, Pastor Nike Adeyemi, alongside other ministry leaders and facilitators.

According to the organisers, the conference is built around more than three decades of organisational experience developed at Daystar and packaged into an eight-part framework known as the S.H.E.P.H.E.R.D. Model, covering key areas including governance, leadership development, people management, technology, operations and succession planning.
