The Women’s Ministry of the Cape Coast Area of The Church of Pentecost has donated some items worth GHS 11,100.00 to inmates of the Ankaful Prisons Annex at Cape Coast in the Central Region of Ghana.
The Area Ministry Leader, Deaconess Mrs. Georgina Ashley, together with Pastor Ernest Ohene Adu (Abee District Minister) and Elder Daniel Quainoo (Cape Coast Area Deacon), led the Church delegation to present the items during a visit to the prison on Tuesday, June 28, 2022
The items include rice, gari, sugar, water, toiletries, parazone, liquid soaps, detergents, soaps, drinks, milk, sanitisers, tissue papers, palm oil, cloths, toothpaste and brushes.
Handing over the items, Deaconess Ashley indicated that the donation is in line with the church’s “Possessing the Nations” agenda, which aims at influencing all spheres of society, including the prisons service, with Kingdom principles and values.
“As Christians, we need to emulate the example of Jesus by doing good to all persons within our society, rescuing the perishing and caring for the dying,” she stated.
She also advised Christians to be socially responsible and contribute to nation-building since the government cannot do it all.
Superintendent Elisha Ntsiful, who received the items on behalf of the service, expressed profound gratitude to the Church for the kind gesture and continuous support of the prison service. He lauded them and urged them to keep supporting the inmates.
Present at the brief presentation ceremony was the Cape Coast Area Executive Committee members of the Women Ministry.
