The Asokwa Area Women’s Ministry of The Church of Pentecost has donated 120 plastic chairs to three assemblies in the Kwanwoma District of the church to support their expanding congregations.

The presentation, led by Mrs Faith Dzemekey (wife of the Asokwa Area Head), took place during a prayer service organised by the Area Women’s Ministry at the Kyekyewere Assembly on October 1, 2025.

Receiving the donation, Pastor George Owusu, Kwanwoma District Minister, expressed deep gratitude to the Asokwa Area leadership of the Women’s Ministry for their generosity and commitment to the growth of the church. He noted the District’s rapid expansion, with membership rising from 1,500 to 1,900 in two years. He also appealed for support in acquiring land for assemblies currently worshipping in uncompleted private buildings, citing high land costs as a major challenge.

Deaconess Deborah Ahenkora gave an exhortation on the theme, “Pray Without Ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17; Matthew 7:7–11), which was followed by a fervent prayer session led by Deaconess Joyce Obeng.

Also present were the executive committee members of the Area Women’s Ministry, including Deaconess Alexandria Siabuor (Secretary), Deaconess Nana Yaa Serwaa, and Mrs Elizabeth Donkor.

Following her baptism, she testified of receiving renewed strength in her limbs, enabling her to walk with minimal assistance using crutches. Her testimony deeply inspired attendees and reaffirmed the power of God to heal and restore.

The Church of Pentecost Donates Life Jackets to Students Who Cross Volta Lake to Attend School

The Church of Pentecost’s Schools Outreach Ministry (SOM), in collaboration with the Teshie-Nungua Area of the church, has taken a bold step to improve safety and access to education by donating life jackets to students in Keta-Krachi of the Oti Region. The students face a daily challenge of crossing the Volta Lake to attend school, often without protective gear.

The donation ceremony, held on Friday, September 26, 2025, brought together church leaders, local authorities, traditional rulers, and community members to celebrate a significant step forward in ensuring that education does not come at the cost of children’s lives.

Pastor Frank Mensah Tandoh, National Coordinator of the Schools Outreach Ministry, explained that the idea was sparked by growing concern over the safety of students who spend up to three hours crossing the lake each day.

“We believe no child should risk their life just to get to school. These life jackets are a symbol of our commitment to protecting our children while promoting education,” he said.

The Kete-Krachi Area Head of the church, Pastor Charles Kwaku Ofosu, expressed gratitude to SOM for identifying the pressing need and responding swiftly, saying, “This is what ministry is all about – meeting people where they are and addressing real needs with practical love.”

The Queen Mother of Adoten, Nana Bakrife Eyerealeso II, commended the church’s initiative, describing it as timely and thoughtful.

“This donation brings hope to our community. Our children can now go to school with greater peace of mind, and parents can rest a little easier,” she said.

The Municipal Chief Executive Officer for Krachi West, Hon. Prosper Addo, also welcomed the intervention, revealing that the Assembly is finalising plans to build a boarding facility for students living across the lake.

“This intervention by The Church of Pentecost is a valuable complement to the district’s long-term strategy to improve access to education in island and lakeside communities,” he stressed.

The students and their parents welcomed the donation with joy and relief, describing the life jackets as a lifeline for children determined to pursue education despite geographical barriers.

This gesture from the church adds to a growing wave of community-led solutions aiming to close the education and safety gap in Ghana’s most underserved areas.

HUM Hosts Maiden Ministers’ And Wives’ Retreat At PCC

A fresh wind of divine purpose and power swept through the Pentecost Convention Centre (PCC), Gomoa Fetteh, during the maiden Home and Urban Missions (HUM) Ministers and Wives’ Retreat, held from September 17-19, 2025.

Preaching at the retreat, which was held on the theme, “The Drive of the Anointing” (Luke 4:18–19), the HUM National Coordinator, Pastor Benjamin Ofei-Badu, drew deeply from Luke 4:18, emphasising that when the Holy Spirit rests upon an individual, they are divinely driven to specific people in specific places for release, restoration, recovery, and deliverance. He explained that just as Jesus was drawn to the poor, the blind, the oppressed, and the imprisoned, believers today must follow the same divine path set by the anointing.

Pastor Ofei-Badu further underscored HUM’s role in God’s end-time agenda, declaring it central to the Church’s mission. Drawing lessons from biblical figures such as Samson, Elijah, and Jesus, he reminded participants that the anointing empowers believers for supernatural impact.

“The anointing consumes our weaknesses, gives clarity, releases God’s provision, and dispels excuses,” he declared, urging ministers and their wives to yield fully to the Spirit. He also honoured Apostle Eric Nyamekye, Chairman of the church, for unveiling Vision 2028, describing it as a divine roadmap for the times.

Adding depth to the retreat, Mrs Abigail Ofei-Badu, wife of the HUM Coordinator, challenged ministers’ wives to deepen their walk with God.

“Have you been with God?” she asked, stressing the importance of personal encounters and understanding God’s ways in fulfilling the divine mandate.

Pastor Gabriel Owusu Akyaw, a member of the HUM National Executive Committee and HUM Pastor for the Kumasi Sector, also exhorted participants to remain faithful to their unique callings, reinforcing the retreat’s message of surrender, compassion, and purpose.

The programme featured a presentation on addiction and substance use by representatives from NACOC, alongside HUM business deliberations. Times of fervent prayer punctuated the retreat, making it both impactful and Spirit-led.
