My name is Mohamed Lamin Fadika, born to Abu B. Fadika and Isatu Kamara. I was born in Freetown of Sierra Leone, West Africa. I was born in an Islamic family and as a young boy I was committed to the Islamic faith. All that changed when I migrated to the United States of America. 

In the year 2008, I moved to the United Stated to pursue a degree in Medical Technology. In the same year, I gave my heart to Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, under the ministry of Bishop Link Howard at Faith Christian Community Church, in Port Huron, Michigan. In 2009, along with my brother and friends, we moved to Detroit where we attended, at then, Henry Ford Community College. During my years at HFCC, I attended Detroit World Outreach. 

I am married to my beautiful wife, Feza, a union that was blessed by Pastor Semmeal, at City Covenant Church, who was my wife’s Pastor at that time. Together, Feza and I have two amazing daughters, Elizabeth and Eliyanah.

My journey with God took a deeper depth when I started attending a Tuesday prayer meeting with friends who were on fire for Christ. Throughout the years in that prayer meeting, my relationship with God grew, my knowledge in the word of God grew, my commitment to Christ deepened, and my zeal and love for God was set ablaze. It was during these years that God began to impress His desires for ministry in my heart. This was confirmed to me through prophesies and dreams.

In 2012, I began leading the Tuesday prayer meeting after my friend who was leading the group had to step aside to attend to his newborn and wife. During these years, I taught the Bible and prayer sessions. In 2018, I moved the prayer meeting to my house in Detroit but ended few months after that.

In 2011, God moved me from Detroit World Outreach to White Stone Christian Center, now Restoration International Christian Church. It was there that my gift of preaching and leadership was recognized, unearthed, and built up under the ministry of Pastor Albert Iwondo. Under Pastor Iwondo, I learned the basics of ministry, I learned discipline, I learned how to labor in prayer, I learned how to serve all people, I learned how to preach. It was under the ministry of Iwondo I was ordained as a minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

After another short spell under the ministry of Bishop Link Howard at Restoration International Christian Church, my family and I transitioned to City Covenant Church in April of 2023 under the ministry of Pastor Semmeal Thomas. As God shifted Pastor Semmeal into a different area of ministry, God moved me into succeeding Him as the Pastor of City Covenant Church.
