Our History
When a child was born on February 17th, 1967, by Mr & Mrs Osharejemren Izeze of Oginibo Community, in Ughelli South Local Government of Delta State, little was it known that a messenger of God, for the reconciliation of man back to God was born. Even though the family into which he was born, was predominantly a non-Christian one, God was not deterred from creating a vessel for His own use, originated from a place surrounded by idolatry. That vessel is Pst Godcan Chris Ogheneseruo.
Because of the seed of God’s mission in him, even though he was raised in the midst of idol worshippers, he had an inner incurable craving for a Sovereign Supreme being, that is not made by man, unlike the carved idols that were then worshipped.
When Pst Godcan Chris Ogheneseruo, was baptized by Rev J. K. Ariemuduigho (of blessed memory), in Oginibo Baptist Church in 1986, the fire to seek the True God was then kindled in him. The result of that fire is the birth of THE BURNING BUSH DOMINION CHURCH INC. The Church which was started by the founding pastor and his nuclear family alone, in a remote village in Rivers State, Nigeria, on 16th March, 2008, was later inaugurated by Rev Dr Joseph Okorhi in 2009.
