God’s Power At Work In The Church Of Pentecost: More Miracles Recorded

by with No Comment Church NewsTestimoniesTop Stories

God continues to renew His covenant with The Church of Pentecost through countless miraculous happenings, transforming lives and changing destinies among its members.

In 2024, the church experienced a remarkable number of miracles attributed to the power of the Holy Spirit. Notable occurrences included the restoration of sight for the blind, the return of hearing for individuals with deafness, the ability of the paralysed to walk, the healing of cancerous cells, the restoration of kidney function, and the blessing of couples with children after prolonged periods of infertility, among numerous other miraculous events.

This was disclosed by the Chairman of The Church of Pentecost and President of the Ghana Pentecostal Council (GPCC), Apostle Eric Nyamekye, during the opening ceremony of the 47th Session of the General Council Meetings at the Pentecost Convention Centre (PCC), Gomoa Fetteh, on Wednesday, April 30, 2025.

A few of the miraculous happenings in the church across the globe have been captured as follows:

In Bantama Extension District in the Kwadaso Area, Kumasi, Dr Abena Nyantakyiwaa, a medical doctor, experienced miraculous healing from four years of internal bleeding that had shut down her reproductive system. Despite her husband being a senior gynecologist, medical treatment, including monthly blood drainages, was ineffective. During prayer organised by the church, she encountered Jesus Christ and was instantly healed. A subsequent check-up confirmed her healing, revealing her uterus was now open for conception, with doctors affirming her ability to conceive and give birth.

In May 2024, Mama Obuor in the Darkuman District of the Kaneshie Area in Accra experienced a distressing incident when her handbag containing GH¢35,000.00 was stolen at her workplace. The church gathered to pray and intercede on her behalf. Remarkably, just a day after their prayers, the thief, unable to sleep due to visions of fire erupting from the bag containing the money, decided to return it, with the full amount intact.

In the Berekum Area, Agnes Appiah, who had been diagnosed with an inflammatory breast disease in both breasts, attended a convention organised by the church. After she was prayed for, she felt a sense of healing. The following day, she visited the hospital for another scan, and the results confirmed that the inflammation had indeed vanished from her breasts.

During the climax of the 2024 officers’ retreat organised by the Teshie-Nungua Area, a couple, Elder Patrick and Deaconess Florence Djan, came forward seeking the blessing of children after 15 years of marriage. With heartfelt prayers offered for them, they were joyfully granted the gift of twins, to the glory of God.

In Walewale, a Fulani man named Abduli Alidu and his wife, Yennu-nboib, sought help from the Kambatiak District Minister of the church regarding a pregnancy that had lasted one year and two weeks. They had already consulted various native doctors and shrines, along with a visit to the hospital, where doctors informed them that a cesarean section was the only way she could safely give birth. This news filled them with fear. However, after the pastor prayed with them, the woman miraculously gave birth the next day. Grateful for this blessing, the man brought his wife and their two children to accept Christ, and they are now proud members of the church.

Martin Asiedu, a member of the church in the Ofankor District of the Achimota Area, was admitted to the hospital in May 2024 due to severe stomach pains stemming from kidney stones. He was scheduled for surgery two days later. However, the day before the procedure, the presbytery visited him and offered prayers for him. In a remarkable turn of events, Mr Asiedu returned for his surgery only to find, after a thorough series of tests, that the kidney stones had completely vanished.

Mrs Rhoda Baah Acheamfour, wife of Pastor Isaac Baah Acheamfour of Offinso Namong District, was diagnosed with cancer of the womb at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital. She was given the option of total removal of the womb or to undergo chemotherapy due to the severity of the cancer. She started chemotherapy, and prayers were offered on her behalf. To the glory of God, she was completely healed. She afterwards conducted several tests and was declared fit by KATH. She conceived thereafter and gave birth to a baby boy.

In Indonesia, Emelda from Jakarta was instantly healed of an arthritis condition in the legs when she was prayed for in April 2024. Again, Mama Dorcas of East Nusa Tenggara, also in Indonesia, who had been in a wheelchair for several years, could now walk after the prayers of the saints.

Mr Yuseef, a resident of Tubli in the Kingdom of Bahrain, experienced a remarkable recovery from a ruptured knee ligament. During an evening walk from a shopping mall, our resident missionary and his spouse encountered Mr Yuseef outside his home. After receiving permission, the missionary fervently offered a prayer for his healing. To the glory of God, Mr Yuseef experienced an instant recovery.

12-Year-Old Beatrice, Others Honoured By The Church Of Pentecost For Leading Many To Christ

by with No Comment Children's MinistryChurch NewsTop Stories

The Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, has expressed immense joy over the unwavering dedication of individual church members to soul winning. Among those who made significant strides at spreading the gospel is Miss Beatrice Dzotepe, a 12-year-old Sunday School child of Avoeme District in the Aflao Area of the church, who single-handedly led 12 children to Christ.

Presenting the State of the Church Address (SOCA) at the 47th Session of the General Council Meetings of The Church of Pentecost at the Pentecost Convention Centre, Gomoa Fetteh, on Wednesday, April 30, 2025, Apostle Nyamekye said little Beatrice committed to win the souls during the church’s One-Member-One-Discipled Soul initiative in November 2024, and all 12 new souls have been successfully retained in the church.

One individual who won souls through personal evangelism is Elder Godson Boateng of Offinso Area who single-handedly won 1,024 new souls, comprising 615 adults and 409 children. Out of the souls he won, 425 adults were baptised in water, leading to the opening of a new local assembly in the Tetrem District to accommodate the new members.

In a related development, Deacon Charles Addae from the Tema Greenwich Meridian District, in the Tema Area, also won 92 souls, with 61 of them being baptised in water. Also, from Community One District in Tema Area, Deaconess Comfort Korsa won 90 souls and had 61 of them baptised in water.

‘Dearly beloved, these achievements stand as a testament to our members’ unwavering commitment to spreading the gospel’, Apostle Nyamekye iterated, adding that ‘we must all endeavour to be soul winnings wherever we find ourselves.’

247 Individuals Gain Employable Skills Through PENTSOS Initiatives

by with No Comment Church NewsPENTSOSTop Stories

The Church of Pentecost, through its social services arm—Pentecost Social Services (PENTSOS)—has provided employable skills to 247 individuals as part of its efforts to reduce unemployment and poverty in fulfilment of Scripture.

This has been achieved through the establishment of four state-of-the-art skills development centres located in Bunjai, Mbawundo, Garu, and Siniensi. Three of these centres are already operational, while the fourth is set to open in 2025—marking a significant milestone in the Church’s commitment to sustainable development.

Currently, 55 young men and women are undergoing training at these centres, equipping them with valuable vocational skills to secure sustainable employment, increase their income, and promote gender equality, particularly by supporting the girl child.

Beyond the formal training centres, PENTSOS has also launched a community-based skills training project, connecting 46 unemployed youth with experienced master craftsmen within their local communities. This hands-on apprenticeship model enables trainees to acquire practical, market-relevant skills while remaining rooted in their home environments

Recognising the vulnerability of cocoa farmers to fluctuating market prices, PENTSOS has introduced alternative livelihood programmes in six key areas: Sefwi Bekwai, Essam Debiso, Asankrangwa, Bogoso, Juaboso, and Sefwi Wiawso. So far, 146 beneficiaries have been trained in beekeeping, soap making, tailoring, and other trades—helping to reduce their dependence on cocoa farming and improve financial stability.

The initiative has already sparked positive change, with many trainees expressing deep gratitude for the opportunity to build self-reliance and transform their lives.

The Church Of Pentecost Delivers Quality Healthcare To Over 234,000 Ghanaians web

The Church Of Pentecost Delivers Quality Healthcare To Over 234,000 Ghanaians

by with No Comment Church NewsPENTSOSTop Stories

In a small community in Ayetsekope, a mother no longer has to travel miles to access basic healthcare for her sick child. In Abesewa, an elderly farmer can now get treatment with dignity and without delay. These are just a few of the quiet revolutions taking place across Ghana—thanks to the growing healthcare mission of The Church of Pentecost, through its social services wing, Pentecost Social Services (PENTSOS).

Speaking at the 2024 State of the Church Address (SOCA) during the opening of the 47th General Council Meeting on April 30, 2025, Chairman Apostle Eric Nyamekye shared how the Church’s healthcare efforts are restoring hope and dignity to thousands of people across the nation.

“Our hospitals and clinics are not just buildings; they are places of healing, compassion, and restoration,” the Chairman said.

In 2024 alone, over 234,000 patients were served through 11 healthcare facilities—four hospitals and seven clinics—run by the Church. These facilities, often in remote and underserved areas, have become lifelines for families who previously had little to no access to quality medical care.

This growing demand was met by a dedicated team of 1,199 healthcare professionals, an increase from the previous year, who continue to serve with commitment and care.

Among the many milestones was the operationalisation of the Abesewa Clinic in the Abuakwa Area—a beacon of relief to the local community. In Teshie-Nungua, the PIWC-Graceland went a step further by donating a fully equipped CHPS compound to the Ghana Health Service, directly benefiting the people of Ayetsekope.

One of the most heartwarming stories came from Teshie Praso, where a newly constructed clinic has now been officially registered under the Christian Health Association of Ghana (CHAG) and is offering essential medical services to residents who, until now, had to endure long journeys for basic care.

The Church is not stopping there. Projects are underway in Ohene Nkwanta, Kumbangre, and Asuadei, while feasibility studies are ongoing in hard-to-reach areas like Dwarf Island, Pesator, and Dawusasu. In Accra, plans are in motion for a specialist hospital that aims to set a new standard for healthcare delivery in the country.

Beyond buildings and clinics, the Church committed GHS 10.7 million to support the medical needs of its members—ensuring that no one is left behind due to financial constraints.

These stories of healing, dignity, and access are not just statistics. They are a reflection of the Church’s enduring mission: to minister to the whole person—body, soul, and spirit.

In the words of Apostle Nyamekye: “We are called to serve humanity, and in doing so, we make God’s love visible in the most tangible ways.”

The State of the Church Address (SOCA) is an annual report presented by the Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, typically during the opening session of the General Council Meetings—the highest decision-making body of the Church. Modeled in part after the “State of the Nation” format, SOCA provides a comprehensive overview of the Church’s spiritual, administrative, and social interventions for the previous year.

The Church Of Pentecost Invests Over Ghs 17 Million In Educational Scholarships web

The Church Of Pentecost Invests Over GHS 17 Million In Educational Scholarships

by with No Comment Church NewsPENTSOSTop Stories

For many individuals in Ghana, access to quality education is a dream that can seem out of reach—especially for those in rural communities. But for members of The Church of Pentecost, this dream is becoming a reality, thanks to the Church’s commitment to supporting its members’ educational aspirations.

In 2024, the Church made a transformative investment of GHS 17,186,903.75—a sum that has already begun to change the futures of many students, apprentices, and future leaders.

Apostle Eric Nyamekye, Chairman of the Church, shared this milestone during the 2024 State of the Church Address (SOCA), delivered at the opening session of the 47th General Council Meeting on April 30, 2025, at the Pentecost Convention Centre (PCC), Gomoa-Fetteh.

“The power of education is undeniable—it is a tool that shapes lives, uplifts communities, and builds futures,” Apostle Nyamekye stated. “By investing in the education of our members, we are investing in the future of Ghana.”

This substantial investment came through a variety of initiatives, including the Pentecost Education Scholarship Scheme (PESS). A total of GHS 957,535.66 was allocated to provide full scholarships for tertiary students studying outside Pentecost University, covering their tuition fees and accommodation.

Additionally, the Church supported members pursuing apprenticeship training programs with an investment of GHS 1,810,813.40, providing them with the skills they need to succeed in their chosen trades.

These investments aren’t just numbers—they represent the hope of a young person who can now attend university, the dedication of an apprentice who can now complete their training, and the promise of a brighter future for families and communities.

For many members, this investment means much more than just financial assistance—it is a lifeline that allows them to break barriers, overcome obstacles, and step into new opportunities that were once beyond their reach.

As Apostle Nyamekye concluded, “We are not just investing in education; we are investing in the people of God—who, through education, will go on to serve, lead, and make a lasting impact on society.”

The Church of Pentecost continues to prove that when faith and education come together, they create a powerful force for change.

Being held under the theme: “Unleashed to Live a Life Worthy of Your Calling” (Ephesians 4:1; 1 Thessalonians 4:7; Galatians 1:24), this year’s General Council Meeting was officially opened on Wednesday, April 30, and is scheduled to close on Friday, May 2, 2025.

As part of this initiative, eighteen schools received new library books during the reporting year.

Apostle Nyamekye also highlighted the Church’s strengthened partnership with the government to facilitate the adoption and upgrading of the Pentecost Vocational Institute, which will soon be renamed Pentecost Senior High Technical School.

“With support from the Ghana Education Service, we have successfully appointed a general manager for the Church’s educational unit. This represents a significant step in the ongoing restructuring of PENTSOS’s educational operations,” he added.

He concluded by reaffirming the Church’s unwavering commitment to educational advancement, the integration of technology, and innovation as tools to shape a better future for Ghana’s youth.

Through sustained and intensified evangelism efforts, The Church of Pentecost led 432,470 individuals to Christ globally last year.

Out of this number, 351,981 new converts joined The Church of Pentecost, while 80,489 opted to fellowship with other Christian denominations—largely due to existing affiliations or geographical proximity. This milestone was achieved through a record 461,844 evangelistic outreaches, marking an 18.3% increase from the 390,545 outreaches conducted in 2023.

The figures were disclosed by Apostle Eric Nyamekye, Chairman of the Church, during the 2024 State of the Church Address (SOCA) at the 47th General Council Meeting held on Wednesday, April 30, 2025, at the Pentecost Convention Centre (PCC), Gomoa-Fetteh.

“As of December 2024, the Church had 27,106 Assemblies and 3,183 Districts worldwide. This represents a 2.2% increase in Assemblies and a 4.3% rise in Districts compared to the previous year,” the Chairman reported, attributing the growth to the grace of God and the Church’s missional focus.

While noting that the Church has nearly saturated its territorial reach in Ghana, Apostle Nyamekye underscored the continued urgency of evangelism, both locally and internationally.

“These remarkable successes are a testament to our members’ unwavering commitment to spreading the gospel,” he stated.

Among the many inspiring stories shared, Apostle Nyamekye singled out Elder Godson Boateng of the Offinso Area, who led 1,024 souls—comprising 615 adults and 409 children—to Christ in 2024.

He also applauded the efforts of 12-year-old Miss Beatrice Dzotepe, a Sunday School child in the Avoeme District (Aflao Area), who led 12 children to the Lord during the November One-Member-One-Discipled-Soul initiative. All 12 new converts have been successfully integrated into the Church.
