Anyinofi District, which was created from Birem District during the virtual 44th General Council Meeting has dedicated their newly built four bedroom mission house. The dedication was officiated by the Area Head for Mampong, Prophet Foster Kwasi Aniakwaa.
He admonished the leadership of Anyinofi District to team up and work closely with their newly posted minister so that the District will experience steady growth. He used the opportunity to officially inaugurate the District and pray for the new leadership of Anyinofi.
Preaching at the service, Ovr. Yaw Osei-Mensah stated that ministry is partnership. He said everyone has a key role to play in the success of God’s ministry. Reading from Philippians 1:3-6, he stated that there are three main types of partners. He identified these as Active Partners, Dormant Partners and Lukewarm Partners. He said active partners are fully involved in the work of God. Everything concerning them is used for the service of God. Dormant partners support the work with their finances but they’re participation in other sectors of the church life leave much to be desired. Finally, the lukewarm partners may come to church but do not get themselves involve in anything at the church. He admonished that as partners, we must find active roles to play in the church. Some of these he identified as intercession, proclamation of the gospel, visitation, among others.
The chief of Anyinofi, Nana Amponsah Kenteng Kakabo II was very grateful to God and the church for putting up such a beautiful building in their community. He admonished the members to support their pastor and also take good care of the building by constantly maintaining it. He also pleaded with the church to assist the community with a good school. Nana Amponsah made a request to the government to construct the Atebubu to Anyinofi road and also provide telecommunication network for the people of Anyinofi.
The Deputy Coordinating Director for Sekyere-Afram Plains District who represented the District Chief Executive was also grateful to the church and assured the chief and his people of the commitment of government to bring the needed development to the area. He asked the members to ensure proper maintenance of the mission house and also get themselves involved in communal labour to ensure the cleanliness of the community.
Also present at the service were the queen mother and elders of Anyinofi as well as Ministers and wives of the Mampong Area.
