Pastor William Kumuyi, General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, has been honoured by the World Book of Records, London, for his contributions to education, humanitarian service, visionary leadership and global outreach.

Kumuyi disclosed the recognition on Sunday through his official X handle, where he shared a copy of the inclusion letter issued by the organisation.

Reacting to the honour, the cleric expressed gratitude, saying the recognition would not distract him from his core mission of evangelism.

“I received an Inclusion Letter from the World Book of Records, London, @WBRLONDON. Humbled by this recognition, my focus remains unchanged: winning souls for Christ.
“Through five years of #GCK, God enabled us to reach over 50 million lives and see more than 900,000 saved. All glory to God alone!” he wrote.

According to the inclusion letter, signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the World Book of Records, Santosh Shukla, Kumuyi was recognised under the organisation’s Excellence (E1) category.

The organisation stated that the honour was conferred in recognition of Kumuyi’s “outstanding contributions to education, academic excellence, visionary leadership, global outreach initiatives, humanitarian service, and community development, impacting millions of lives across continents through faith-based leadership, educational advancement, and international social empowerment programmes.”

The letter explained that the Excellence (E1) category is reserved for individuals who have demonstrated exceptional achievements, distinguished service and remarkable contributions across different sectors.
“The E1 category is designated to honour and recognise exceptional achievements, distinguished service, or notable contributions in various fields.

The recognition spans academic, professional, social, and humanitarian efforts.

“Awardees are acknowledged for their dedication, leadership, or impact, thereby setting benchmarks of excellence and motivating future generations to emulate their accomplishments,” the organisation stated.

The World Book of Records also congratulated Kumuyi on the recognition and wished him continued success in his future endeavours.
