Church Verification Report
What we checked
- Not a duplicate: no similarly named church is listed with us
- The name reads as a real congregation
- Contact email reviewed (gmail.com, common for small churches)
- A Facebook page was provided; Facebook blocks automated reading, so it was weighed through the independent search
- Independent web search performed: see the findings on the right
What we found
We searched for "God's Hand of Mercy Int'l Ministries" together with Abuja and Nigeria, and separately tried to confirm the supplied Facebook page, and we found no listing, page, news mention, directory entry or denominational record carrying this exact name in Abuja. The results returned only differently named ministries, such as Divine Hand of God Prophetic Ministries Int'l at Durumi District, Area 1 Garki, Abuja, founded by Prophet Emmanuel Omale (vymaps.com church directory), which Wikipedia also describes as an Abuja church running a television station, plus similarly worded but clearly unrelated pages like a small "God's Hand of Salvation and Mercy Ministry" page with 47 likes (Facebook) and "God's Mercy Ministry" in Nairobi (Facebook).

We have asked this church for one piece of extra evidence: a photo, a link, its denomination, or a church that can vouch for it. The moment we can verify, this report is upgraded. Without a response, the listing is paused after 14 days.
