As part of The Church of Pentecost’s vision to transform communities through Kingdom values and principles, societal impact remains a key focus.
In line with this vision, the Namong District in the Wa Area of the church, under the leadership of Overseer Joseph Kyei Asomaning, has donated educational items to 106 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) candidates from five basic schools in the district.
The beneficiary schools were Kulkpong D/A JHS (47 candidates benefited), Bonar D/A JHS (22 candidates benefited), Konta Methodist JHS (8 candidates benefited), Kparisaga RC JHS (9 candidates benefited), and Jayiri D/A JHS (20 candidates benefited).
Each student received a mathematical set, a long ruler, a pencil, and a pen to aid their upcoming BECE, scheduled for Monday, June 9, to Friday, June 13, 2025. The total cost of the donated items amounted to GHS 2,150. The presentations, conducted separately at each school, took place on Monday, May 26, 2025.
The heads of the various schools expressed their heartfelt gratitude to The Church of Pentecost for supporting their candidates and instilling hope in them ahead of the examinations. They further commended the church for consistently addressing the needs of students, noting that if more individuals, religious groups, and organisations emulate such acts of kindness, student truancy will significantly decrease.
The students, overwhelmed with joy, described the donation as timely and highly motivating.
In a brief address, Overseer Joseph Kyei Asomaning encouraged the candidates to study diligently to come out with flying colours. He emphasised that the donation was meant to inspire confidence in them and assure them that they are not alone in their academic journey.
He concluded by praying for their success and asking for God’s enabling power to see them through the examinations.
