In a demonstration of compassion and community service, the Women’s Ministry of the Teshie-Nungua Area of The Church of Pentecost has donated essential delivery instruments and medical supplies to the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department of the LEKMA Polyclinic in Nungua, Accra.
The donation, made on Friday, June 13, 2025, was valued at GH¢80,000.00 and formed part of the ministry’s annual social responsibility initiative to support maternal and child healthcare.
The items include delivery instruments, sterile drums, bedsheets, and trolleys, all aimed at enhancing the quality of care in the gynaecology and children’s departments. In addition to the supplies, the ministry also undertook the renovation of the female ward to provide a more comfortable and dignified environment for mothers and their newborns during recovery.
The delegation was led by the Area Head for Teshie-Nungua, Apostle Wilberforce Nkrumah Agyeman, and included members of the pastorate.
The event coincided with the 12th anniversary celebration of the polyclinic, adding a special touch to the occasion.
Presenting the items, Deaconess Sophia Nana Arthur, Area Women’s Ministry Lead, stated that the initiative reflects one of the core values of The Church of Pentecost – supporting local communities.
‘Drawing from our values, we believe in serving Jesus by serving others. We seized this opportunity to stand with the women and children in our communities by providing basic medical tools to support recovery and safe delivery,’ she said.
She also revealed that the church is in the process of providing an 80KVA generator to the polyclinic to ensure uninterrupted power supply for critical care services.
The Medical Director of the LEKMA Polyclinic, Dr William Okyere-Frempong, expressed deep gratitude for the timely and generous gesture.
‘These items will go a long way in improving maternal care and equipping our staff with the tools they need to provide quality healthcare,’ he said, adding, ‘The Church of Pentecost has once again proven to be a pillar of support to this community.’
He noted that the intervention is expected to significantly boost the hospital’s capacity to deliver safe and efficient services, particularly in maternal and child health, an area of national priority.
Through this impactful gesture, the Women’s Ministry has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to community development and the well-being of vulnerable groups, a mission it has consistently upheld over the years.
