I've had the calling to be a pastor since I was a child - Victoria Lebene

Ghanaian actress, entrepreneur and now pastor, Victoria Lebene has revealed that she has felt a calling to the ministry since childhood.

It could be recalled that on April 22, 2024, Victoria Lebene, during an Instagram live session, surprised fans when she transitioned into the role of a preacher, sharing biblical verses and heartfelt messages with her followers.

Speaking in an interview with Joy Prime TV on August 16, Lebene recounted how pastors would tell her mother that she was destined to be an "Osofo Maame" (pastor's wife) when she was very young.

Initially, she believed this meant she would marry a pastor, not realising that she would become a prominent figure in the ministry.

“Yes, I knew. I had that call for a very long time. When I was very little, pastors would tell my mom, ‘This child will be Osofo Maame’ and I actually thought I was going to marry a pastor to be that kind. Never did I know that it would toll towards that line where I would particularly be in the middle of the whole picture as a woman of God,” she said.

Lebene, in earlier interviews, had emphasised that her ministry is not for social media clout but a genuine calling she has nurtured for a long time.
