The Lena Mae Community Space

The Lena Mae Community Space is named in honor of Lena Mae Wells Ogunfiditimi, a remarkable woman whose life was defined by faith, compassion, and unwavering service to others.

As the beloved wife of The Supreme Prelate Rev. Frederick Ogunfiditimi, founder and spiritual leader of the International House of Prayer For All People, established in 1971, Lena Mae stood faithfully alongside her husband as they dedicated their lives to serving God and the community. Together, they helped build a ministry centered on prayer, hope, and love, touching countless lives through their commitment to faith and service.

Lena Mae was widely known for her genuine kindness, welcoming spirit, and deep love for people. Whether offering encouragement, extending hospitality, or simply sharing a warm smile, she made everyone feel valued and cared for. Her unwavering devotion to God was reflected in the way she lived each day — with humility, generosity, grace, and a servant's heart.

Today, The Lena Mae Community Space continues her legacy by providing a place where people can gather, celebrate, learn, connect, and build lasting memories. From weddings and family celebrations to community events, educational programs, nonprofit initiatives, and cultural gatherings, the space exists to foster fellowship, strengthen relationships, and enrich the surrounding community.

More than just a venue, The Lena Mae Community Space is a tribute to a life well lived — a place inspired by one woman's enduring example of faith, love, hospitality, and service. Every event held here carries forward the values Lena Mae embodied: welcoming every person with dignity, treating others with compassion, and creating an environment where community can flourish.
