The Yennyawoso District Youth Ministry of The Church of Pentecost has successfully concluded a 4-day residential retreat dubbed: “Transformers’ Camp Meeting.”
The event, which took place from Tuesday, August 27 to Friday, August 30, 2024, at the Catholic Retreat Centre (CRC), Ofoase Kokoben, was under the theme, “Fresh Fire For Fresh Transformation,” – (Acts 1:8, 2:1-4, 1 Peter 2:9).
The retreat was aimed at empowering the youth with divine strength and igniting their passion to make a positive impact in their spheres.
It featured experienced speakers, including Prophet Samuel Tetteh Doku (New Tafo Area Head), Pastor Maxwell Adubofourh Asiedu (Yennyawoso District Minister), Pastor Joseph Benlam Tasimbo (Kenyase District Minister), and Pastor Mathias Wornu (Resident Minister for Estate Worship Centre and Chaplain for PENSEC-Kumasi), and Pastor Charles Owusu Mpiani (Kwaso District Minister).
Others were Elder Nkrumah Agyemang, Elder Dr. Ramos Agyarko, Elder Daniel Addae Manu, Elder Richard Mpiani, and Elder Joseph Atta Gyamfi.
“Jewels of Praise,” the District Youth Choir, also enlivened the occasion with a blend of Pentecostal melodies and lively praise songs, creating an uplifting and joyful atmosphere.
The retreat not only addressed the spiritual life of the participants but also their physical well-being, as various topics such as health, self-identity and career guidance, and marriage preparation were discussed, making it a well-rounded event.
Speaking to PENTECOST NEWS, Elder Richard Mpiani, the District Youth Leader, expressed his satisfaction with the organisation of the event. He highlighted the holistic nature of the retreat and noted that expectations were met, attributing all glory to the Lord.
Some of the participants also shared that the retreat was life-changing and urged the leadership to continue organising such events regularly.
