The Amamorley Estate District Children’s Ministry of The Church of Pentecost held a free National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) registration to enroll children in the district onto the scheme.
The exercise, sponsored by Elder Alexander and Deaconess Patience Debrah, the Amamorley District Secretary and District Children’s Ministry Leader, respectively, received the backing and encouragement of the District Minister, Pastor Jacob Asare, and his wife, Mrs. Salomey Asare.
The motivation for the couple was to thank God for His abundant grace and sustenance in their marriage and business, spanning 16 and 13 years, respectively.
The event took place on Saturday, September 7, 2024, at two zonal centres: McKeown Zone and Nazareth Zone, concurrently.
A survey revealed that many children in the district either did not have NHIS cards or had not renewed them. This prompted the organization of the registration drive to address the issue.
The turnout was impressive, with 221 children registered at McKeown Zone and 213 at Nazareth Zone.
Some adults also took advantage of the opportunity to renew or register for their NHIS cards.
The event was not only a practical solution to a pressing need but also a moment of community bonding for attendees, who included members of The Church of Pentecost, other Christian denominations, and non-believers.
The organisers also seized the opportunity to share the Gospel with the patrons.
