The Glory Dome or Glory Sanctuary, is an evangelical megachurch and the headquarters church of Dunamis International Gospel Centre.[1] It is located on the airport road in Abuja, Nigeria.[2]
Background[edit]
Dunamis International Gospel Centre is a non-denominational charismatic movement founded by Dr. Paul Enenche in 1996.[1] On November 24, 2018, the new International Church headquarters, known as the Glory Dome, a 100,000 capacity auditorium, was constructed.[3][4]
Building[edit]
The building sits on an expanse of land referred to as the Lord's Garden, situated on the airport road in Abuja, Nigeria. Its foundation was laid on September 14, 2014, and construction took four years from 2014 to 2018 with its roof done by Geometrica Incorporated.[5][6]
The Glory Dome has five major entrances, two long galleries and an expansive pulpit. Its yellow -oloured roof spans 228 metres and covers 22,148 square metres – over two hectares (five acres) without an interior column.[6][2] Wow Other facilities situated on the same grounds include Rose of Sharon Gardens, Still Water Restaurant, Destiny Christian Academy (a Boarding and Day School), Pastors' Quarters and a Water Fountain.[6]
