The Asesewa District of The Church of Pentecost, under the Agormanya Area, has recorded a significant milestone in its infrastructure development with the dedication of four newly completed church buildings.
The dedication ceremony, which took place on Sunday, June 29, 2025, was led by Apostle Dr. Samuel K. Gakpetor, Agormanya Area Head. The four local assemblies—Akhia, Brepaw, Sisiamang No. 1, and Aworworso Sisi—were dedicated in a single event marked by vibrant worship, thanksgiving, and a deep sense of spiritual and physical growth.
A standout moment during the event was the recognition of Deaconess Viva Bentil Owusu, a UK-based widow and mother of four, who personally financed the construction of the Akohia Assembly church building. She contributed GH¢68,685.00 toward the total cost of GH¢83,560.00 and further donated 70 plastic chairs worth GH¢8,500.00 to the assembly.
Speaking at the ceremony, Deaconess Owusu encouraged believers not to wait for abundance before contributing to the work of God.
The other church building projects were also significant in cost: Brepaw Assembly at GH¢71,122.00, Sisiamang No. 1 at GH¢98,555.00, and Aworworso Sisi at GH¢66,000.00.
The Sisiamang No. 1 project was supported under the Church’s Community-Based Church Building (CBCB) initiative, while the Brepaw and Aworworso Sisi assemblies were funded locally through contributions at the local, district, and area levels.
The event was attended by several dignitaries including members of the pastorate from the Upper Krobo Zone, Area Women’s Ministry Leaders (past and present), and the family and supporters of Deaconess Owusu, all of whom joined in celebrating the growth of the church in the district.
Preaching the sermon at the dedication, Pastor Eddie Sarpong, Area Secretary and Akateng District Minister, spoke on the theme “Living as a Spiritual House,” drawing from 1 Peter 2:1-6, 2 Corinthians 2:17, and Acts 2:42-45.
He emphasised holiness, character transformation, and the responsibility of every believer to live a life that reflects Christ, who is the builder of our lives.
He concluded by urging members to boldly share the gospel of Christ wherever they go, in line with the Church’s evangelistic mandate.
Other dignitaries present were Apostle Dr. Samuel Gakpetor and his wife, Mrs. Grace Gakpetor; Pastor Isaac Owusu Gyebi (Asesewa District Minister) and his wife, Mrs. Regina Gyebi; and former Asesewa District Minister, Pastor George Owusu and Mrs. Janet Owusu.
