Over 20 years ago, on Sunday August 1985, The Mount Zion Faith Ministries began with the name Mount Zion Christian Productions. It was borne out of burden and vision in the hearts of Evangelist Mike and Gloria Bamiloye to evangelize the world through the medium of drama and film productions.


This Ministry took off with Mike Bamiloye and the only three other members, Gloria Obembe (now Gloria Bamiloye), Grace Adeyemi (Now Grace Femi-Akintunde) and one other sister. The Sisters were then students of the College of Education Ilesha in Osun State, Nigeria. The President of the Ministry, Evangelist Mike Bamiloye was also a student of the Institution but had graduated three years before that time.


People with same visions and calling began to join the ministry between 1985 and 1986 which was primarily devoted to spiritual preparations of prayers, fasting and searching of the word of God.

On 11th July, 1986, the ministry had the first drama presentation at St. Margaret Girls Grammar School. Ilesha during the first Nigerian Christian Teachers Conference. The first drama was musical theartrical presentation titled: " HELL IN CONFERENCE".

In August 1987, Evangelist Mike Bamiloye and Sister Gloria resigned from their teaching professions to work full-time in the increasingly busy ministry.

On October 8, 1988, Mike and Gloria got married to combine their zeal, attentions and efforts on the growing ministry and in August, 1989, the entire members of the ministry went on full time service unto the Lord in the Ministry.

From then, the ministry has gone on outreaches to Kano, Zaria, Kaduna, Jos, Calabar, Benin, Warri, and many places in Nigeria and the live drama tours has been taken the ministry to other African nations like Ghana, Cameroun and Kenya.

In the year 2003, the Lord opened the door to Europe with drama outreaches in London. From the year 2003, the Lord has opened a new chapter in the volume of the ministry and given us a priority vision of film and T.V. serial productions. Hence, in the year 2004, the ministry was on film locations thrice for the production of "The Haunting Shadows" and "Busy But Guilty". In 2005, we are billed to be on location five times for the productions of "The Youthful Lusts" and "Blood On The Altar" another T.V. Serial.

By the priority of the mission the Lord has set for us, we are vacating the live-drama stage for a while so as to be able to feed the general masses with the word of God through the films and television outreaches.

So far, by His divine grace, we have been able to produce about 40 (forty) films and television serials.

The Lord is increasing the work of our hand; the ministry has expanded into many evangelistic arms: Drama Outreaches, Film Production, Drama Institute, Production Studios, Marketing Outfit, T.V. Production Outreach and Publications.

The ministry presently contains members of nine families, so it can be rightly termed a family ministry. Six out of the nine couples actually married in the ministry.
