The reviewed executive members seated from right are Elder S. K. Amegah, Elder
P.L.O Ayer, Deaconess Elizabeth Amoako and Deacon Ebenezer Pobee. Others were
Elder Emmanuel Pasceeco Arthur and Deaconess Cecilia Koomson, immediate past

Apostle Daniel Komi Noble-Atsu, Tema Area Head, has lauded the Area Youth
Executive Committee for its pioneering role and exemplary leadership in
nurturing the youth of the Area.
In a send-off service held at the central chapel of the Community Four District
on Sunday, December 13, 2009 for the Area Youth Executive Committee who were
reviewed in 2008 and three others of the current leadership, Apostle D. K.
Noble-Atsu said the youth constituted the future leaders of all organisations,
not least the church of Christ, and efforts aimed at preparing them for their
respective future roles must be appreciated.
The executive members reviewed included Elder S. K. Amegah, who served as Area
Secretary and Assistant Area Leader for two years and ten years, respectively,
and Deaconess Elizabeth Amoako, who served as Treasurer for 12 years. Others
were Elders Frank Ebow and P.L.O Ayer and Deacon Ebenezer Pobee who also served
various number of years.
Apostle Noble-Atsu said the send-off was a replica of the reward the Lord would
give His faithful servants at the close of age. He said just as awards were
presented to the winners of sporting events at the bema seat in the ancient
Greek society, so would Christians receive mercy and recognition at the
judgement seat of God.
The Tema Area Head, therefore, urged the leadership of the youth ministry to
continue to serve faithfully and remain steadfast in their faith because their
“labour in Christ will not be in vain.”
The Area Apostle underscored the need to recognise and appreciate any worthy
effort made by others in the Lord’s vineyard but, even if, such efforts were not
appreciated, he urged the leaders not to be daunted but continue to serve the
Lord who is a rewarder of those who serve Him diligently.
