Two hundred and ten officers have been ordained in the Downtown-Ofaakor Area of The Church of Pentecost.
Among them were 50 elders, 70 deacons and 90 deaconesses. The ordination took place during the August session of the Officers School.
Apostle Dr Benjamin Ali (Rtd.), the immediate past Area Head, addressed the gathering on the theme, ‘Unleashed to do effective ministry.’
He indicated the tendency of some to seek titles and recognition at the expense of genuine ministry work.
He urged leaders to prioritise prayer to enhance their impact on the peopoe and emphasised the importance of unity among leaders for greater impact.
The current Area Head, Apostle William Kojo Edzorhoho, also spoke at the service. He encouraged the newly ordained officers to remain dedicated to prayer and to focus on building a strong church.
He reminded them to uphold the valuable practices of the church passed down to them.
The ceremony was attended by ministers and their wives, ministry leaders, with a total attendance of 715 officers from various districts in the area.
