During his earthly ministry, Prophet Olowere was known to be a gospel teacher, an evangelist and an anointed preacher who performed signs and wonders.
History shows that he was one of the few young men of God who came in close contact with the highly revered Father of Pentecostal in Nigeria, Apostle Joseph Ayodele Babalola, who originally founded the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) in 1941.
Prophet Olowere, on the other hand, had an earthly ministry which spanned over six decades of preaching the gospel, expanding the church and winning souls for Christ.
