Elder

Ibukun is humbled and honoured to serve as one of the Pastors at The City of Refuge Melbourne. She has a burning passion to see the Church of Christ grow into spiritual maturity and walk in the freedom Jesus paid for on the Cross.

Teaching the little ones is one of Pastor Ibukun’s favourite things. Little wonder she also serves as one of the Children’s Church Educators. Here, TCR’s children are taught to know the written Word of God which leads them to encounter the Living Word. She also teaches them through creative illustrations, praise and worship, bible games, and lessons to apply the Word of God to defend their minds against Satan’s darts.

Married to the amazing Atilola Idowu since 2018, God has blessed them with two wonderful boys.

Ibukun’s life scripture is Ephesians 3:20. “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us”.
