Senior Pastor & Founder
Rev. Divine Asem
Our Senior Pastor is Rev. Divine Asem, lovingly known as Divine Perez. He carries a heart for young people, campus communities, and the call to raise Christ-centered leaders beyond the walls of the local church.
Preferred name: Divine Perez
Campus GEM was started by Pastor Divine as an offshoot of Redemption Light Chapel International when the Lord spoke to him through a divine encounter on January 15th, 2009. The word was clear: do not over-concentrate on church work alone, but increase his acreage into the whole world.
In that encounter the Lord showed him a vast land and indicated that the church is just a small corner of that land. From that vision Campus GEM was birthed, a ministry devoted to campuses, communities, and nations.
Pastor Divine leads with a conviction that academic excellence is worship, that discipleship forms character, and that young people can carry Christ into every sphere of influence.
Scripture
“And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.”

Founding word
