In 1988, D. D. Day, then an Elder, was called into the full-time ministry of the Church. He attended a one-year ministerial training at the Pentecost Bible Training Centre at Accra-Madina, from 1988 to 1989.
Pastor Dadson Day responded to the call into the full-time ministry of the Church in 1988 and was stationed at Anloga District from 1988 till 1993. He later served at Nkwanta (1993 – 1999), Santa Maria (1999 – 2005), Agormanya (2005 – 2008), and Nkurakan (2008-2013).
Despite his one-year sick leave to recuperate from an ailment, his passion and desire for the work of God did not dwindle. As a result, upon his return, he was assigned to take over the administration of the then newly-created Mayera District in the Achimota Area of the Church in 2014.
By the grace of God, Pastor Dominic Dadson and Mrs. Vida Day will retire from full-time ministry on Sunday, July 28, 2019. May God’s name be praised.
