Dr. Stanley Orji, the head pastor of The RestHouse was miraculously saved in September 1993 under the ministry of Pastor Charles Omofomah, the senior pastor of The Carpenter’s Church(then Royal Evangel Church), Port Harcourt, Nigeria. He spent the formative years of his Christian life under the ministry of the duo of Pastor Charles Omofomah and Pastor Nkechi Ene, the associate Pastor of the same church. After about seven years, during which the foundation of solid Christian integrity was laid in his life, he relocated to Akure, western Nigeria, in response to his call up for the compulsory national service for fresh university graduates. Here, he met another minister of the gospel, Pastor Albert Omofomah then of The Bible Breed Church, who incidentally was the older brother of his parent pastor. It was pastor Alberts expressed confidence in his inexperienced protege that fanned the embers of a pastoral gift that was unrecognized even by its recipient. Under his experienced guidance, Dr. Stanley learned the rudiments of pastoral ministry and, above all, the virtues of faithfulness. Nine years after arriving Akure, by 6.25am on the 20th October, 2007, God called him to start The RestHouse. With much fear and trembling, he took the first uncertain steps of obedience with the holding of the maiden meeting of the RestHouse fellowship in the seminar room of his private medical practice on December 14, 2007. Today, with his simple and practical approach to sharing scriptural truth and God confirming his word with signs following, The RestHouse has continued to grow in quality membership. Dr. Stanley who holds degrees in medicine and public health is married to Eloho, a family physician, and they are blessed with children.
