The Birmingham District Women’s Ministry of The Church of Pentecost, UK, with support from its former District Minister, Pastor Wiseborn Agyare, has donated clothing worth more than £4,000 to the Salaga Area of the Church in Ghana.

The contribution, part of the district’s annual charitable outreach to disadvantaged communities in Ghana, included a bale of assorted clothing, 48 pieces of cloth, and 17 sewn kaba and slit outfits. Members of the Women’s Ministry provided the items as an expression of their Christian faith and in accordance with biblical teaching that encourages believers to support those in need.

The donation was received by the Salaga Area Head, Pastor Hayford Nsiah Yatimboh. He expressed profound gratitude to the Birmingham District Women’s Ministry, offering prayers for God’s continued blessings upon them. He further commended their compassion and commitment to humanitarian service.

The initiative reflects a longstanding practice championed by Pastor Agyare, now serving as District Minister in Tottenham. Throughout his ministry, he has consistently prioritised mobilising members to support the needy, particularly in communities across Ghana.

The Downtown Ofaakor Area of The Church of Pentecost, under the leadership of Apostle William Kojo Edzorhoho, held a foundation stone-laying ceremony on January 18, 2026, at the Downtown District Mission House premises, marking a significant milestone in the construction of a twin mission house to serve both the Downtown and Peace Town Districts.

In his welcome address, the Area Head described the project as a timely and strategic intervention, noting that the twin mission house would provide adequate accommodation for ministers serving the two growing Districts. He commended the ministers and leadership for their dedication and hard work in bringing the project to this stage.

Delivering the sermon, Pastor Daniel Nabaku, Minister of the Ebenezer Estate District, spoke on the topic “The Mission Dynamics.” Drawing from Genesis 28:18, he explained that Jacob anointed the stone with oil to mark it for recognition, stressing that mission houses are built with a divine purpose – to house God’s sent servants. He encouraged members to give the “keys of their hearts” to their ministers, just as keys are handed over to mission houses, adding that ministers are entrusted with God-given vision that must be nurtured over time. He urged the congregation to live harmoniously with their ministers to fully benefit from the purpose of the mission house.

Recounting the history of the project, the District Secretary noted that the old Downtown Mission House, after 25 years of use, had become structurally unsafe and required urgent replacement. Through prayer, consultation, and member involvement, leadership developed plans for a single storey building accommodating two mission houses. Following a sod-cutting ceremony in April 2024, construction commenced in May 2024 under strict supervision.

The Peace Town Mission House project began after the creation of the Peace Town District during the 48th Council Meeting in May 2025, with construction starting promptly to house the new District Minister.

The ceremony was attended by ministers and their wives, traditional leaders, opinion leaders, and members from both Districts. Profound gratitude was expressed to Apostle William Kojo Edzorhoho and Mrs Lucy Dede Edzorhoho, as well as all committees, officers, artisans, and members whose collective efforts continue to drive the project forward.

Apostle David Nii Addo-Pappoe, The Tepa Area Head of The Church of Pentecost, has dedicated three newly completed Community-Based Church Buildings (CBCBs) to the Mpasaso and Wioso Districts, marking a significant milestone in the Church’s mission to strengthen local assemblies and expand its presence within communities.

The dedication ceremonies were held on Tuesday, December 30, and Wednesday, December 31, 2025, beginning at 10:00 a.m. each day. The facilities dedicated were the Mpasaso No. 2 Assembly, Meyeden Assembly, and Nyamebekyere Assembly, all located within the Mpasaso and Wioso Districts of the Tepa Area.

These projects form part of the Area Head’s ministerial oversight responsibilities. Some months ago, the Church released funds for the construction of the CBCBs in line with its infrastructure development policy. By the grace of God and through the commitment of the local leadership and members, the projects were fully completed within the stipulated period, paving the way for their dedication to the Lord.

Ministers serving in the Wioso Zone were present to support the ceremonies, reflecting the unity and shared vision among the clergy in the Area. Traditional leadership also played a notable role, as the Queen Mother and Odikro of Mpasaso No. 2 and Nyamebekyere respectively honoured the occasions with their presence, underscoring the cordial relationship between the Church and the host communities.

During the dedication services, the District presbyteries of the Mpasaso and Wioso Districts expressed profound gratitude to the leadership of The Church of Pentecost for providing the financial resources to construct the church buildings. They acknowledged that the CBCBs stand as monuments to the glory of God and tangible evidence of the Church’s commitment to providing decent places of worship for its members. Special appreciation was also extended to the Area Head for the confidence reposed in the Districts and the opportunity given to them to manage and execute the projects successfully.

The dedication of the CBCBs has already begun yielding spiritual dividends, bringing renewed strength and revival to the local Assemblies. Members testified that the presence of permanent church edifices has enhanced the visibility of the Church and further anchored its ministry within the communities where the buildings are situated.

The events concluded with thanksgiving to God for His faithfulness, as the Church continues to advance its mandate of building both people and places to the glory of His name.

As part of the Church of Pentecost’s “Possessing the Nations” agenda, The Other Sheep Ministry of the Pentecost International Worship Centre, Tarkwa, organised a combined lunch and gospel outreach for members of the Muslim community in Tarkwa on January 1, 2026. The event, which formed part of the Christmas festivities, was aimed at demonstrating Christ’s love in practical terms while proclaiming the message of His birth and salvation.

Held under the theme, “Bring Them Also” (John 10:16), the outreach took place simultaneously at two locations: the Naboso Central Mosque area near the Tarkwa Market Circle and the Muslim community close to the Apinto Government Hospital. An estimated 500 Muslim brothers and sisters participated in the programme, which fostered a spirit of warmth, mutual respect, and community fellowship.

Participants were treated to a hearty meal of jollof rice with chicken, complemented by bottled water and assorted soft drinks. The lunch was generously sponsored by Sister Eva Coffie and Deaconess Esther Agbesi, whose support contributed significantly to the success of the event and reinforced the Church’s commitment to compassionate outreach.

Delivering the gospel message was the Tarkwa Area Coordinator of TOSM, Pastor Ebenezer Awuku Quaye, who also serves as Secretary for the Western and Western North Regional Coordinating Committee. He ministered in Hausa, a language familiar to most of the attendees, ensuring clarity and cultural connection. His message focused on the incarnation and redemptive mission of Jesus Christ, drawing from the teachings of the Gospel of John and highlighting God’s desire to gather all people into one fold.

The message made a notable impact, leading fifteen individuals to publicly accept Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour. These converts have since been enrolled into a structured follow-up programme to support their spiritual growth and integration.

Expressing appreciation for the warm reception, Pastor Awuku Quaye reaffirmed the ministry’s long-term vision. “Our objective is to establish a TOSM Assembly in Tarkwa as soon as possible, by the grace of God,” he stated.

The outreach reflects the Church’s dedication to evangelism carried out with cultural sensitivity, practical love, and a commitment to nurturing lasting faith within diverse communities.
