In August 2001, she started an indoor healing miracle program tagged “HEALING MIRACLE AND DELIVERANCE SERVICE”. This service however metamorphosed into the PORT HARCOURT MIRACLE CRUSADE in November 2003 at the ALFRED DIETE-SPIFF SPORTS COMPLEX CIVIC CENTRE MOSCOW ROAD Port Harcourt. The Port Harcourt Miracle crusade moved from Civic Centre to PORT HARCOURT LIBERATION STADIUM in 2007.

After the 2007 episode of the Port Harcourt Miracle Crusade at the Port Harcourt Liberation Stadium, it became obvious that the stadium could no longer hold the capacity crowd, the program had to be moved to the church site at Igwuruta in Port Harcourt in January 2010 and continued until 2011 and was then called NIGHT OF GLORY.

In 2012, the NIGHT OF GLORY program metamorphosed into the 5NIGHTS OF GLORY with 49 viewing centres.
