by with No Comment Children's MinistryChurch NewsTop Stories

The Sabuli District of The Church of Pentecost has launched the Sabuli Children’s Club, a transformative initiative designed to nurture, empower, and disciple children in the Sabuli community and beyond. The colourful event took place on Saturday, October 18, 2025, at the Sabuli District Mission House in the Wa Area.

By the grace of God, a total of 95 people attended the launch, including children from diverse backgrounds – some who do not attend church and others from different religious faiths. This diversity, according to organisers, reflects the inclusive and missionary vision of the club, which seeks to reach all children with the love of Christ.

The atmosphere was filled with joy and excitement as the children participated in the programme, which also featured the sharing of assorted drinks and biscuits. A special highlight of the day was the celebration of the birthday of Mrs. Dorcas Enyinful, wife of the District Pastor, whose dedication and efforts were instrumental in bringing the initiative to life.

In alignment with Vision 2028 of The Church of Pentecost, which seeks to possess the nations by transforming every sphere of society with Kingdom values and principles, the Sabuli Children’s Club has been established to win, wean, and unleash children as agents of transformation in their communities.

The organisers expressed heartfelt appreciation to the Wa Area Head, Apostle Bernard Azizu Mohammed Abogorago, and his wife, Mrs. Vida Abogorago, for their invaluable counsel, support, and prayers towards the success of the launch and the growth of the ministry in Sabuli.

The Sabuli Children’s Club will meet every Saturday at 3:00 p.m., and the leadership is confident that, by the grace of God, the initiative will make a lasting impact on many young lives.

Serve Wholeheartedly To Possess The Nations – Apostle Frimpong-Manso Urges

by with No Comment Church NewsTop Stories

The Bogoso Area Head of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Daniel Frimpong-Manso, has called on Christians, particularly church leaders and workers, to serve God wholeheartedly in fulfilling the divine mandate to “Possess the Nations.”

He made the call during an orientation service held on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, for newly transferred ministers and newly appointed Area officers at the Bogoso Area Office. Speaking on the theme, “Unleashed to Work Wholeheartedly to Possess the Nations,” with scripture references from 2 Chronicles 31:20–21 and 1 Corinthians 15:58, Apostle Frimpong-Manso encouraged believers to give their utmost dedication to the work of God.

Quoting from 2 Chronicles 31:20–21, he said: “This is what Hezekiah did throughout Judah, doing what was good and right and faithful before the Lord his God. In everything that he undertook in the service of God’s temple and in obedience to the law and the commands, he sought his God and worked wholeheartedly. And so he prospered.”

Apostle Frimpong-Manso noted that God has highly honoured Christians, especially those who serve in His vineyard, and reminded the congregation that service to God is not based on human merit but on grace. He therefore admonished believers not to take this grace for granted but to serve joyfully and faithfully in every role.

He described serving the Lord as both a calling and a blessing, urging participants to count it a privilege to be chosen as part of God’s workforce. Drawing lessons from the life of King Hezekiah, he explained that although Hezekiah was born into idolatry, he chose to walk faithfully with God, becoming a model for all believers who seek to please God in their generation.

The Apostle outlined key actions that earned King Hezekiah divine favour; removing the Asherah poles and cleansing Judah of idol worship, destroying the gods raised by his father and renouncing ungodly traditions, opening the doors of the temple to restore true worship, reinstating the duties of the priests and Levites to reestablish spiritual order, and upholding the supremacy of God in the social life of the people. These, he said, demonstrate wholehearted service that leads to divine prosperity and lasting impact.

Apostle Frimpong-Manso, however, reminded the gathering that wholehearted service does not exempt believers from trials, citing Hezekiah’s sickness as an example. “Hezekiah faced severe sickness that brought him near death,” he said. “But challenges in life and ministry do not always mean sin; sometimes, they are divine tests that prepare us for greater glory.”

He added that God often uses such experiences to reveal His power and strengthen believers’ faith, emphasizing that when one serves wholeheartedly, God responds with mercy and restoration.

Highlighting lessons from Hezekiah’s life, Apostle Frimpong-Manso mentioned that God extended his life by fifteen years, delivered Judah from the Assyrian king Sennacherib without the use of swords or chariots, and prospered all the works of his hands because he sought the Lord with a loyal heart.

He, therefore, urged ministers and workers to emulate Hezekiah’s example by being diligent in their service, remaining humble after victories, and staying focused on God’s purpose.

Concluding his message, Apostle Frimpong-Manso said: “The prosperity and testimonies we desire in our lives and ministries come only when we seek God and work wholeheartedly for Him. As we labour to possess the nations, may we do so faithfully, joyfully, and with excellence.”

Evangelism Is A Command And A Privilege Proofread web

Evangelism Is A Command, Privilege — Pastor Enoch Amoah Asserts

by with No Comment Church NewsTop StoriesYouth Ministry

The Resident Minister of the Pentecost International Worship Centre (PIWC), Assin Foso, Pastor Enoch Amoah, has urged believers, especially the youth, to embrace evangelism as both a divine command and a sacred privilege. He made this passionate appeal when he delivered a message titled “Unleashed to Go and Tell” at the launch of the National Youth Week.

Basing his sermon on John 1:40–42, Matthew 28:18–20, and Exodus 3, Pastor Amoah reminded the congregation that the Great Commission is not a suggestion but a clear instruction from Christ Himself. He explained that the Gospel “is not like pollen grains that drift with the wind; it does not spread by accident. It spreads only when Spirit-filled men and women intentionally carry the message of salvation to others.”

Expounding further, he noted that to “Go and Tell” means stepping out of one’s comfort zone to reach the lost, the broken, and the forgotten with the transforming message of Jesus Christ. “It means taking the Gospel beyond the church walls; into homes, streets, workplaces, schools, hospitals, markets, and even digital spaces like WhatsApp, Facebook, and TikTok. Wherever there are people, there must be messengers of the Gospel,” he emphasized.

Pastor Amoah described evangelism as both a command and a privilege. “We go because souls are perishing; we tell because Christ has already given us the power and authority to do so,” he stated. Drawing parallels with biblical figures, he added, “Just as Moses was sent to deliver Israel and Paul was sent to the Gentiles, every believer today is sent to their generation.” He affirmed that obedience to this call brings joy to heaven, transformation to lives, and advancement to the Kingdom of God.

Referencing the 2024 SOCA (Souls Outreach and Consolidation Awards) report, Pastor Amoah commended Elder Godson Boateng, Deacon Charles Addae, Deaconess Comfort Korsa, and Miss Beatrice Dzotepe for winning 1,024, 92, 90, and 12 souls respectively. Their commitment, he said, exemplifies what it means to live out the “Go and Tell” mandate.

With children and youth forming 76.5% of the Church’s total membership, Pastor Amoah called on young people to rise as bold witnesses of Christ in their generation.

In a rousing conclusion, he declared, “We have been unleashed to go and tell — no excuses! The mission is defined, the methods are ready, the message is known, and the power is already given. What are we waiting for? Let us go and tell!”

Youth Urged to Go, Tell, Bring Souls to Christ

by with No Comment Church NewsTop StoriesYouth Ministry

The opening session of the National Youth Week Celebration, held at the Firestone Worship Centre in the Madina Area, was marked by a stirring call to action from the Resident Minister, Pastor James Kusi Owusu. Preaching under the theme “Unleashed to Go and Tell,”Pastor Owusu exhorted the youth not only to “Go and Tell” but to “Go, Tell, and Bring” souls to Christ for discipleship.

Taking his main scripture from John 1:35–45, Pastor Owusu illustrated how the first disciples came to know and follow Jesus. Referring to John 1:40–41, he explained that the first thing Andrew did after encountering Christ was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah.” Likewise, Philip went in search of Nathanael to share the same good news. “Many people around us are just waiting to hear someone speak to them about Jesus,” Pastor Owusu noted, urging the youth to take the initiative to reach out.

He further observed how John the Baptist introduced Jesus to two of his disciples as “the Lamb of God,” and how that simple witness led them to follow Jesus and spend time with Him – an encounter that transformed their lives. “Like John, every believer must point others to Christ through both word and witness,” he emphasized.

Quoting Luke 14:21–23, Pastor Owusu called on the youth to go beyond telling to bringingsouls into the Kingdom. He recounted how, in the parable, the master commanded his servants to go into the streets and compel people to come until the house was full. “This ‘compel’ does not mean coercion,” he clarified, “but rather a passionate persuasion driven by love and urgency.”

Encouraging the youth to overcome fear and timidity in witnessing, Pastor Owusu challenged them to engage the Go and Tell mandate with zeal and boldness. “Leave no individual you meet unspoken to,” he charged, reminding the young people that the world is their mission field and every encounter is an opportunity to share Christ.

PEMEM Director Calls For Collective Action To Build Ghana’s Food Security web

PEMEM Director Calls For Collective Action To Build Ghana’s Food Security

by with No Comment Church NewsPEMEMTop Stories

The Pentecost Men’s Ministry (PEMEM) of The Church of Pentecost, in collaboration with the Nsawam Area, joined the global community to commemorate World Food Day 2025 with a call for collective action to ensure food security and promote sustainable agricultural practices across Ghana.

The event, which took place on Wednesday, October 16, 2025, at the Adoagyiri Central Assembly auditorium in Nsawam, brought together traditional leaders, farmers, government officials, and stakeholders in the agribusiness sector under the global theme, “Hand in Hand for Better Foods and a Better Future.”

Delivering the keynote address, the Director of the Pentecost Men’s Ministry, Apostle Vincent Anane Denteh, underscored the need for collaboration among all sectors to achieve Ghana’s food security agenda.

“The phrase ‘hand in hand’ calls for collaboration across all sectors to ensure that access to nutritious, affordable, and sustainable food becomes a universal right, not a privilege,” he stated.

Apostle Denteh further explained that Ghana’s agricultural transformation depends on strong partnerships between government, faith-based organisations, the private sector, and local communities. “When government, faith-based organisations, private investors, and communities work together, meaningful progress begins at the grassroots level,” he noted.

He therefore appealed to the government, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) to engage faith-based institutions, particularly The Church of Pentecost, in national agribusiness policies and discussions. He described the church as “a significant partner with enormous influence capable of driving sustainable food systems across Ghana’s communities.”

Apostle Denteh also encouraged farmers to adopt modern and sustainable farming technologies such as drip and sprinkler irrigation systems and to explore new areas like aquafarming, apiculture, and animal husbandry. He concluded his address with a biblical exhortation from Deuteronomy 28:8, 12, reminding all present that “God blesses the work of diligent hands and rewards collective efforts.”

Hon. Dr. Peter Boamah Otokunor, Director of Presidential Initiatives in Agriculture and Agribusiness, also addressed the gathering, emphasising the importance of home gardening and community vegetable production as practical means of improving household food security.

In his remarks, the Nsawam Area Head of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Francis Yaw Adu, commended PEMEM for using the occasion of World Food Day to highlight the role of agriculture in national development. He urged all Ghanaians to “come together and support the cause of sustainable food production.”

The event concluded with a lively exhibition where farmers displayed their produce, fostering business networking and knowledge sharing.

This year’s World Food Day celebration also marked the 80th anniversary of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), reinforcing the global call for shared responsibility in ensuring a world free from hunger.

The Church Needs Impactful Generations – Pastor Appiah Afful

by with No Comment Church NewsTop Stories

The Offinso Area Head of The Church of Pentecost, Pastor Justice Appiah Afful, has urged church leaders to intentionally train members, especially the youth to become impactful in their generation.

Speaking on the theme, “The Church of Pentecost Officer and His Ministry” during the 2025 Area Retreat (Session 3), Pastor Appiah Afful described ministry as a divine privilege that must be approached with diligence, vision, and a commitment to continuity.

Drawing lessons from the leadership of Moses and Aaron, he encouraged officers to emulate Moses’ example. He emphasised the importance of understanding and passionately fulfilling one’s role in unity, referencing Genesis 11:1.

He reminded officers of their responsibility to safeguard the Church from worldly influences, moral decline, false doctrines, and internal conflicts that hinder the growth of God’s Kingdom.

Quoting 1 Timothy 3:1, he cautioned that although believers are called from the world to transform it, they must not conform to it.

“We must know what our Master desires,” he said, stressing the need for self-awareness and personal growth. “A good officer recognises their weaknesses, works on them, and overcomes them. If you don’t deal with your weakness, it will deal with you.”

Summarising his message, Pastor Appiah Afful outlined key traits of a good church officer. According to him, a good church officer knows and obeys the Master’s will unconditionally, exhibits Christlike character, mentors others for the future of the church, has a passion for lost souls, shepherds God’s flock with love and empathy, and demonstrates loyalty, faithfulness, and trustworthiness.

He concluded by stressing the necessity of prayer and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, saying, “A Church that raises prayerless, lukewarm officers who are indifferent and harbour grudges cannot possess their communities—let alone nations.”

Evangelism, The Lifeline Of The Church — Pastor Sarfo Declares

The Kaneshie Area Youth Pastor and Resident Minister of the Abossey Okai Worship Centre, Pastor Fred Stephen Sarfo, has underscored the indispensable role of evangelism in sustaining the life and growth of the Church.

Speaking at the launch of the 2025 National Youth Week Celebration of The Church of Pentecost, held under the theme: “Unleashed to Go and Tell,” Pastor Sarfo emphasized that evangelism is not optional but essential to the Church’s survival.

“Every Church which isn’t interested in evangelism eventually dies along the way,” he cautioned, urging members to rekindle their passion for soul winning. He explained that the Gospel must continually flow from one believer to another, in obedience to the Great Commission that commands all Christians to “rise up and go and tell.”

Addressing the youth, Pastor Sarfo reminded them of their vital role in the Church’s mission and future. “The youth and children are the future leaders of the Church,” he stated, adding that the Church’s tomorrow depends largely on the zeal and faithfulness of its young people. “The Church is interested in everything your hands find to do for the Kingdom,” he said, encouraging them to take every opportunity to serve.

Quoting Mark 16:20, Pastor Sarfo assured the congregation of God’s abiding presence as they step out in faith to share the Gospel. He stressed that evangelism must extend beyond the pulpit and church gatherings to schools, workplaces, neighborhoods, and all spheres of life.

“It is a season to go and tell, and you shouldn’t be afraid because God is with us,” he declared, urging all believers to carry the message of Christ wherever they go so that many may be reached and won for the Kingdom of God.

Apire District Celebrates 10th Anniversary

by with No Comment Church NewsTop Stories

The Apire District, within the Kwadaso Area of The Church of Pentecost, has commemorated its 10th anniversary with a vibrant, spirit-filled celebration held from October 7 to 12, 2025, at the Central Church Auditorium.

Held under the theme, “10 Years of Thriving in the Faithfulness of God into the Unleashing Agenda,” the six-day event featured a range of activities including a health talk, float, games, praise and worship sessions, intercessory prayers, and a thanksgiving service. Renowned gospel artistes such as Kwaku Gyasi and Dorcas Appiah graced the occasion. The celebration concluded with a fundraising appeal for a community development project.

District Minister, Pastor Enock Eric Okrah, highlighted the anniversary’s purpose as a step towards launching a major community initiative under the Church’s ‘Possessing the Nations’ agenda. He expressed deep gratitude to God for His guidance over the past decade, recalling early challenges following the district’s separation from Santase, including the frequent loss of members. He joyfully noted that no deaths had been recorded in the past four years, attributing this to divine protection.

Pastor Okrah also shared his vision for the district’s future, hoping it will soon birth a new district and produce pastors from within its ranks. His ultimate desire is to see lives transformed through the gospel in the Apire enclave.

He extended appreciation to the Kwadaso Area Head of the church, Apostle Yaw Adjei-Kwarteng, and acknowledged past ministers of Santase, including Pastor Bright Kwame Ashong, Pastor Joseph Tibiru and his wife, as well as the Area pastorate and Apire members for their dedication.

Prioritize The “Go And Tell” Mandate – Pastor David Aryee Urges Youth web

Prioritize The “Go And Tell” Mandate – Pastor David Aryee Urges Youth

by with No Comment Church NewsTop StoriesYouth Ministry

The District Pastor of Mt. Zion Worship Centre in the Kaneshie Area, Pastor Inspector David Nii Okai Aryee, has called on members of The Church of Pentecost, particularly the youth, to give top priority to the “Go and Tell” mandate of Christ.

Preaching from John 1:40–42, Matthew 28:19–20, and Luke 14:21–23 during a recent service, Pastor Aryee reminded the congregation that the last words of a man carry great weight, and since the final instruction of Jesus was to “Go and Tell,”believers must treat this command with utmost seriousness and urgency.

Referencing the well-known quote by the late Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke, “Every man you meet is either a mission field or a missionary,”Pastor Aryee explained that every human encounter is a divine opportunity – either to reach someone for Christ or to partner with another believer already serving the Lord.

“A soul is a soul, and it is precious to God,” he stressed.

He further reminded the church that evangelism must be conducted without discrimination, regardless of tribe, race, social status, education, or economic standing. Lamenting the reality that many die without ever hearing the Gospel, he urged believers to renew their commitment to soul-winning.

“Many of us have friends, colleagues, and relatives who are unsaved, yet we show little concern,” he observed.

Drawing lessons from Andrew’s act of introducing his brother Peter to Jesus, Pastor Aryee emphasized that evangelism begins with those closest to us.

“If we have seen the light, we must show others the light,” he said.

He also cited the Samaritan woman’s testimony as an example of how one person, touched by the message of Christ, can lead an entire community to salvation. He therefore encouraged believers to approach evangelism with both intentionality and urgency.

Concluding his exhortation, Pastor Aryee cautioned against the habit of making excuses when it comes to evangelism, describing excuses as “one of the most unprofitable inventions of man.”He urged believers to conquer fear, crucify the flesh, and silence every voice that hinders obedience to God’s call.

“No matter how appealing our excuses may seem to man, they hold no weight before God,” he warned.

Recalling the courage of the early Church, he reminded the congregation that the fathers of the faith proclaimed the Gospel even at the risk of their lives.

“If they risked their lives for the Gospel, then we have no excuse at all,” he declared.

Pastor Aryee concluded with a sobering call to accountability, urging every believer to reflect on how they would answer God concerning their commitment to evangelism.

“Your job is to tell people about Jesus,” he affirmed. “The Holy Spirit will do the rest.”
