Bishop Joel Andrew Njoku, the visionary founder of City of David Tabernacle, is a man whose life and ministry are defined by divine calling, prophetic accuracy, and a heart of service. Born in Imo State, Nigeria, into a lineage of preachers, he carries a rich spiritual heritage from his parents, the late Reverends Andrew and Cecilia Njoku, and his uncle Reverend Joseph Omereonye—all seasoned ministers in the Assemblies of God Church. With over forty-five years of active ministry, Bishop Joel Andrew has become a spiritual father, intercessor, and teacher whose impact reaches across nations.

His pursuit of both academic and spiritual excellence led him from Nigeria to the United States, where he studied at Rhema Bible College under Rev. Kenneth Hagin and earned a Master's in Urban Ministry from Oral Roberts University. He also holds business degrees from Calabar Polytechnic and the London School of Business Studies. In Maryland, he established City of David Tabernacle, a prophetic and healing ministry known for miracles, divine revelations, and over 180 fulfilled prophecies. His ministry has witnessed the blind see, the deaf hear, and global events foretold with supernatural precision.

Beyond the pulpit, Bishop Joel Andrew is a psalmist and president of Lily Music Company, having released nine albums that glorify God. Married to Reverend Francisca Andrew and blessed with three children, he embodies humility, generosity, and unwavering devotion. His message remains one of faith, restoration, and God's glory—a consistent call to raise people into their divine destinies and to bring healing to humanity and the nations.

Reverend Francisca Njoku Andrew serves as the Co-Pastor of City of David Tabernacle, carrying a deep anointing for prayer, compassion, and mentorship. A true woman after God’s heart, she stands as a pillar of strength and intercession — a wailing woman whose prayers have birthed healing, deliverance, and restoration in countless lives.

A seasoned nurse with over 20 years of experience in the nursing field, Reverend Francisca embodies the heart of a caregiver both in the hospital and in the house of God. Her life reflects an unshakable passion for helping others — tending not only to physical wounds but also to the souls of those seeking comfort and hope.

Her ministry to young adults has become a beacon of guidance and grace, as she lovingly mentors them to discover their divine purpose and live out their faith boldly. Known for her fervent intercession, nurturing spirit, and motherly wisdom, she exemplifies the strength and virtue of a Proverbs 31 woman — clothed with dignity, compassion, and prayer.

Alongside Bishop Joel Andrew, Reverend Francisca has devoted her life to building a ministry that embodies healing, deliverance, and spiritual transformation. She is more than a pastor; she is a mother to many — leading with humility, wisdom, and a heart anchored in love and prayer.
