Pastor (Mrs.) Elizabeth Moradeyo Aremu is a Nigerian pastor, speaker, relationship and family counsellor. She is widely known within the Winners Chapel community for a public testimony of childlessness and restoration that she shared at Shiloh 2014, and for her decades-long partnership in ministry with her husband, Bishop Thomas Olayiwola Aremu.
Pastor Elizabeth Moradeyo Aremu is the wife and ministry partner of Bishop Thomas Aremu, who served as the second Vice President of Living Faith Church Worldwide (Winners Chapel) under Bishop David Oyedepo before his retirement in October 2024. Together, the couple co-pastored the Living Faith Church, Basorun, in Ibadan, Oyo State - the congregation Bishop Aremu pioneered in 1994, which grew to over 10,000 members within four years.
Pastor Elizabeth describes her own calling as that of a speaker, mentor, and relationship and family counsellor, a ministry focus that has made her a familiar voice to women within the church on marriage, the home, and family life.
Early Life
Detailed public records of Pastor Elizabeth Aremu's early life, place of birth, and education are limited compared to those available for her husband. What is documented largely through her own testimony, shared publicly at Shiloh 2014 is that she spent part of her early life in Ghana, raised by a woman she believed for years to be her biological mother.
Her Testimony: A Story of Restoration
At a specialized "Fathers and Mothers of the Nation" service during Shiloh 2014, Pastor Elizabeth was invited to the podium by Mama Faith Oyedepo to share a personal testimony that Bishop David Oyedepo had referenced for years without naming those involved.
In her account, she described growing up under the care of a woman in Ghana who she says exploited her for ritual purposes tied to financial gain, and who told her she would never bear children. After her family discovered her circumstances, one of her brothers helped bring her back to Nigeria, settling in Ibadan. She recounted that this same brother later died under circumstances she attributed to the woman's actions, and that the woman herself died suddenly on the day of Pastor Elizabeth's wedding.
Following her marriage to then-Deacon Thomas Aremu, she says she struggled to conceive for a period of time. She has credited a turning point to a visit from Bishop David Oyedepo, who stayed at their home during a preaching engagement while her husband was still serving as a deacon in the ministry - after which she went on to have four children. She closed her Shiloh 2014 testimony encouraging others facing similar struggles that no situation is beyond God's ability to restore.

Marriage and Family
Pastor Elizabeth is happily married to her heartthrob, Bishop Thomas Olayiwola Aremu. The couple are believed to be the same age - both were celebrated in a joint diamond jubilee marking their 60th birthdays in 2017 — and have spent decades in ministry together, from her husband's early years as a deacon and part-time pastor through his rise to Bishop and Vice President of Living Faith Church Worldwide.
They are blessed with four children — Faith, Love, Thomas Jnr., and Emmanuel — and seven grandchildren. In March 2026, Pastor Elizabeth publicly celebrated her husband's 69th birthday with a heartfelt tribute honoring his role as a spiritual leader and devoted family man, a post that drew notable attention on social media.
Ministry Role Today
Following Bishop Aremu's official retirement from his Vice President role in October 2024, Pastor Elizabeth has continued to stand alongside him in ministry, including his continued involvement in church events such as Shiloh 2025, where he made a widely noted appearance more than a year after retirement.
