Pastor Yemi Oyenubi served in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (Port Harcourt) for 14 years. He rose from being an usher to be the Chief Usher and also held other pastoral offices before he left in 2005 to start this new work called "The Saviour's International Ministry". Pastor Yemi Oyenubi did not just leave to start the work but because He was led by God and this was confirmed by numerous revelations given to Him and shared by highly respected men of God in the church. He found it difficult to leave but when the last prophecy came "Thus saith the LORD if you do NOT leave I will replace you". It dawned on him that the time was up. By HIS grace the work started 6th November 2005.
