Apostle Queen Belemzy Marks 46th Birthday With Port Harcourt Revival Crusade

Apostle Queen Belemzy, the founder of Queen Belemzy Ministries-School of Power, turned 46 on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, and marked the occasion in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, where members, partners and close associates gathered to honour her.

The birthday celebration was built around a three-day revival crusade tagged "3 Days Holy Ghost Encounter," which ran from Sunday, September 27, to Tuesday, September 29, the day of her birthday.

The Reens Suites and Apartments Event Centre hosted the programme, which was marked by worship, testimonies and spiritual renewal. Christian faithful, followers and partners from Nigeria, other parts of Africa, Europe and the United States attended in person, while millions more joined from various locations online.

Based in the United States, Belemzy is widely known for spreading messages of salvation, deliverance and restoration to a global audience through social media platforms.

Speaking to journalists on the sidelines of the event, some members from Nigeria and other countries recounted how her ministry had shaped their lives, explaining that this was why they travelled to Port Harcourt for the celebration.

Verah Otieno, who is based in Dubai, said she had belonged to the ministry since 2018 and chose to travel down to celebrate the woman whose work had left a deep mark on her life.

She described the ministry as a place of love and teaching, saying it had shown her how to love God and that she had gained much knowledge under the Apostle's guidance. According to her, she has witnessed how Belemzy has blessed numerous people whose lives changed as a result of her love for God and humanity. Otieno added that she had never seen anyone do for people what the Apostle does, and that she admires her obedience, which has also taught members to obey God.

Mary Bruenle, a member from Germany, said her encounter with Belemzy brought change to her life on both spiritual and physical levels, crediting Jesus for the transformation that came through the ministry. She placed Jesus first, followed by her Apostle, and then Nigeria, which she said she likes, though not everything about it.

Recounting how she discovered the preacher, Bruenle explained that she came across her while scrolling through YouTube one day and found herself unable to look away from the video.

Celeste Glichrist from Delaware, United States, who said the visit was her second to Nigeria, described her encounter with Belemzy as transformational. She recalled joining the ministry six years ago after a friend invited her, and said that from the very first time she watched the preacher, she could not stop and decided to become a member.

Glichrist said her life has changed completely in the six years since, adding that God has blessed her and that she has received healing through the ministry for her eyes, high blood pressure, cholesterol and many other conditions. In her words, God has taken care of her through this ministry.

Apostle Felicia Tengu, who is based in Columbus, Ohio, United States, said it meant a great deal to her to celebrate with the woman of God, whose life has reached many people around the world.

Belemzy's aunt, who introduced herself simply as Mrs Margaret, praised the cleric for submitting to God's call, which produced a ministry that has transformed lives in many nations. She recounted that Belemzy grew up in the area before relocating to the United States, noting that she is her mother's younger sister and that the preacher stayed with her after her parents moved to the US.

Margaret said she is very proud of her niece, describing her life as an instrument of change, and added that God is using her to touch lives worldwide, including among her own people at home.

Addressing a press conference earlier, the Port Harcourt-born cleric said she chose to spend her birthday bringing the Gospel of Jesus Christ to her people as God directed. She explained that the three-day revival formed part of her ministry's continuing evangelistic outreaches in different parts of the country, aimed at delivering healing, restoration and revival to the nation.

Belemzy said God instructed her to hold her birthday celebration in Port Harcourt, recalling that she was once a party promoter who hosted large birthday parties in clubs every year, until she got saved and God told her that from then on she would hold the party for His glory. She added that the event was now Jesus' party, and that God directed her to hold it in Port Harcourt, her birthplace and hometown.

According to her, the three-day programme offered an opportunity for people to have genuine encounters with Jesus Christ, resulting in healings and deliverance for individuals and for the nation. She said Jesus is the light of the world, and that this was the word God had been giving her since she arrived for the programme, declaring that Nigeria is about to experience the light of the world, Jesus Christ, who will remove every darkness and bring light into people's lives, and that Nigeria is about to be great again.

Beyond preaching, Belemzy used the programme to meet material needs, distributing food, clothes and startup capital to many attendees.

The event also drew Nigerians from various walks of life, among them figures from the film industry led by the former National President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), Dr Emeka Rollas Ejezie (MON). Veteran actress Patience Ozokwor (Mama G), Steve Eboh, Doris Ogala, Uche Ogbodo and Torino Ojukwu were among the thespians who came to felicitate with the cleric.
