ABOUT US

​

We are an International church that is on fire for the Lord. As you can see from our name, we seek God first in everything we do and, He had been faithful to His Word. In Acts 4: 31-33, we see the early church on fire as they worshipped and enjoyed the presence of God in their midst. If the church were truly on fire we wouldn’t announce it in the bulletin or by way of a sermon. But I’m proud to announce that this church is officially ‘on fire for God!’

​

There was a village atheist. He was not a bad man, he just didn’t believe. He was not interested in church…and there was only one in the area. It was cold and dead—a social club, with no decisions being made. One day the church building caught on fire, and the whole town ran towards it to help extinguish the flames, including the village atheist!

Someone hollered out: “Hey, this is something new for you, the first time we’ve ever seen you running to church!” He replied, “This is the first time I’ve ever seen the church on fire!”

​

Our vision is to touch the untouched with the Word of God, reach the lost and bring them to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ with love and caring. We are a church on fire for the Lord. May SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM (SYFK) INTERNATIONAL FELLOWSHIP be that church you have been searching for. We welcome you to come worship with us. We love praising and worshipping God.

In March 2006, God came through on His Promise in Matthew 6:33 “But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you.” His Word became a reality when, through the leadership of Pastor Edward Alinyoh, Seek ye First the Kingdom International Ministry (SYFK) was born.

​

​

The first service was held at the home Bro. Bai Coomber and the members present at that are service were:- Bro. Bai and his daughter, Pastor Patrick Koroma, Pastor Eddie and wife Sis. Ama and their three kids – total eight. As each member made their homes and time available to God, He in turn blessed their homes and lives tremendously. In May 2006, Sis. Shenor willingly gave her home to be used as a Place of worship and her garage became a sanctuary for worship to accommodate the few members we had at that time. During this time, God continued to add faithful and dedicated members to this ministry. In July 2006, Mr. and Mrs. Nathaniel Manley offered their business location to be used for church services at no cost. It was at this location that God added to the ministry and praise God “The Children's Ministry” was borne at this time. We thank God for spiritual growth in the ministry and praise God we are still growing.

Through the leadership and guidance of our Pastor (Pastor Eddie),

​

God has taken Seek Ye First the Kingdom of God International Fellowship Georgia (SYFK), from a few believers to dedicated members whose main concern is to seek God first in every aspect of their lives.

​

​

As we overcame the challenges with growth of membership, God touched the heart of Mr. and Mrs. Femi Wright who graciously offered their former business location to the church as a meeting place at 6319 Covington Highway Lithonia GA. 30058 Stone Mountain. We met at there place until December of 2007. God bless their precious Hearts.

​

God being our helper as always, we moved to Glen Haven United Methodist Church in Decatur where the Pastor hosted us for two months and then moved to Fairfield Inns and Suites by Marriott’s, at Stone Crest Mall for another two months. God blessed us with what we will call a “God kept and God sent” place as we continue to fix our eyes on Him.

As we go into another year, we continue to trust and believe God for a church building, a place that we can call our own, where we will continue to grow and worship God in liberty, in spirit and in truth.
