Anglican Church of Resurrection
Obianime-Ama

The Anglican mission traces its roots back to about 1946 in Amafina-Ama. However, the difficulties created by violent inter-communal wars scattered the people, forcing the congregation to migrate to Ogbogbo. Even in Ogbogbo, geographical and social complications proved too hostile to sustain a church. Eventually, the believers discovered a lasting refuge and settled successfully in Obianime-Ama.

Following the creation of the Diocese of Okrika, intense efforts were made to rekindle fading churches. In 2011, Revd. Paul M. Oba took control of the station for seven and a half years, stirring leadership that saw the physical walls of the church raised to roof level.

The name "Resurrection" was officially bestowed upon the church on May 27, 2012. It was a powerfully symbolic christening—a direct reference to the extinction of the church's prior settlements and its miraculous revival, mirroring Jesus Christ who died and resurrected again.

Subsequent administrators like Revd. Tamunotonye Kingsley Daka, working under the Bishop's charge, superintended rapid development, installing beautiful marble lecterns, fonts, and a grand chancel. Today, the church powerfully ministers to Obianime-Ama and beyond.
