The Masters' Place International Church
The Master’s Place International Church is not just a church but a LIFE COACH centre, where the love of God is demonstrated and the irreversible principles of God’s word is taught to help you take charge of life’s situations, which are mostly very complex.
Welcome to your week of pleasant surprises from the Lord. As your heart stays on Him, He shall daze you with blessings from even unexpected sources . However note that some people will be disappointed that you are fully following Christ and do no more indulge in the filthy practices of the past (1Peter 4:4). This is a proof you are now on the right path. So let their slander mean nothing to you. You will surely testify in Jesus’ name!

In 1983, Félix Houphouët-Boigny, the first President of Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), was inspired to build the Basilica of Our Lady of Peace. This megastructure modeled after St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City began about 40 years ago and aimed to achieve the following ideals:
-Religious devotion
-Personal legacy,
-A show political symbolism and a mark of national identity.
Today, the Basilica of Our Lady of Peace is a remarkable architectural feat and a symbol of national pride. It was commissioned by President Boigny and consecrated in 1990 by Pope John Paul II,
With a footprint of 30,000sqm, it became the largest church structure in the world but still holds the distinction of being the largest basilica tofay, surpassing even St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City in size (22,000sqm)
The basilica's design, inspired by St. Peter’s Basilica, is situated in Yamoussoukro, the former president's hometown. It was part of a broader vision to elevate the city as the nation's capital and cultural center. It serves as a testament to the country's aspirations and the late president's legacy .
Intended as a place of worship and pilgrimage, the Basilica offers a serene environment for spiritual reflection. However, regular attendance is modest, with ordinary liturgies typically drawing only a few hundred worshippers .
The basilica's cost was estimated between $175 million and $600 million while other estimates peg it at $300 million. It was said to have been built 'out of pocket' by Boigny and on 75 hectares (acres?) of his cocoa plantation
At the time it was built, the national debt was also about $300 million.
This sparked controversy with critics arguing that such funds could have addressed pressing social needs .
Despite its capacity to accommodate 18,000 worshippers, the basilica often remains underutilized
Some view the basilica also referred to as the Second Vatican as a personal monument to President Houphouët-Boigny, noting features like stained glass windows depicting his likeness. This has led to debates just like it did with Hagia Sophia about the intertwining of political ambition and religious expression .
While the Basilica of Our Lady of Peace achieves remarkable architectural and symbolic milestones, its practical impact as a center of worship and community engagement is limited.
Today, the Ark legacy project is over 2 times the size of Our Lady of Peace Basilica and over 3 times the size of St Peters Basilica.
So why the Ark?
Will it go the way of Hagia Sophia?
Will there be consequences like St Peters Basilica?
Will it be under utilized and become just another tourist centre like Our Lady of Peace Basilica?
What lessons have been learnt from the largest churches in the world in the medieval and modern eras?
Join Church Gist Tomorrow Morning by 7am in a 4 part series as we draw out lessons learnt by Bishop David Oyedepo in his drive towards the completion of the Ark legacy project.
