The Home and Urban Missions (HUM) of The Church of Pentecost in the Kumasi Sector has celebrated Mother’s Day with mothers in the HUM Assemblies at Railways Glory Assembly and Santasi Frafra Assembly while extending support to underprivileged mothers within the surrounding communities.
The programme was organised by Pastor Gabriel Owusu Akyaw, his wife, Mrs Patricia Owusu Akyaw, and their family. The event created an atmosphere of joy, fellowship, and encouragement for participants.
Speaking at the gathering, Pastor Gabriel Owusu Akyaw urged Christians to honour and appreciate their mothers, emphasising that Jesus Christ demonstrated care and responsibility toward His mother during His earthly ministry. He cited Christ’s actions on the cross, where He entrusted the care of His mother to His disciple, as an example for believers to emulate.
He also encouraged mothers whose children are battling drug addiction not to lose hope but to remain steadfast in prayer and trust God for transformation and restoration in their families.
The celebration brought together 176 participants from the two assemblies, including children. Participants shared a meal together, cut a specially designed Mother’s Day cake, and enjoyed moments of warm interaction and fellowship.
The men and children actively participated in appreciating the mothers, making the occasion memorable for all attendees.
As part of the outreach, some underprivileged mothers from nearby communities surrendered their lives to Christ during the programme.
Participants expressed gratitude to the organisers for the thoughtful initiative and the love shown to them. The event ended with renewed hope, joy, and strengthened fellowship among participants.
