Sakumono Area Fire Crusade Records 311 Souls For Christ

by with No Comment Church NewsEvangelism MinistryMoving With GsTop Stories

The Sakumono Area of The Church of Pentecost has recorded a remarkable harvest of 311 souls during a four-day “Fire Crusade” held from 18th to 22nd November 2025 under the theme, “Jesus Christ Shall Set You Free.”

The crusade, which drew multitudes from Community 20 and neighbouring communities, also saw 118 candidates baptised in water and 71 believers receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit, marking a significant move of God among the people.

Speaking during the event, the General Secretary of the Church, Apostle Samuel Gyau Obuobi, expounded on the liberating mission of Christ as foretold by the prophet Isaiah. He noted that Jesus clearly outlined His earthly mandate when He proclaimed, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me…,” revealing His divine assignment to set captives free, open blinded eyes, and deliver the oppressed.

Apostle Obuobi described captivity as a condition where a person appears outwardly free yet remains spiritually bound. He explained that humanity fell into such bondage through sin, becoming subject to the power of Satan and death, with no ability to save itself.

He, however, emphasised that through His death and resurrection, Christ shattered the hold of sin, broke Satan’s authority, and opened the way to true and lasting freedom. He urged the congregation to recognise that many people still struggle internally despite seeming free, and affirmed that only Jesus has the power to liberate completely.

The Sakumono Area Head, Apostle Dr. Samuel Nana Yaw Agyei, also ministered during the crusade, calling on all present to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. Drawing from Isaiah 53:5, he reminded the gathering that Christ paid the full price for humanity’s peace.

He likened life to a journey from the womb to the tomb, marked by battles and uncertainties, yet assured the people that true peace can only be found in God.

Other speakers included the Evangelism Director, Pastor Emmanuel Appiah, and the Resident Minister of PIWC Sakumono, Apostle Seth Fianko-Larbi.

The event also featured ministrations by several gospel musicians, including Olivia Tornu, Emmanuel Arthur, Ohemaa Esther, Life Impact, and other renowned artistes.

As part of the outreach, a free health screening was organised on Saturday, November 22, supported by individuals and organisations, including Prince Mark Company Limited.

Special prayers were also offered for healing and for couples trusting God for the fruit of the womb, rounding off a crusade marked by spiritual renewal, divine encounters, and transformed lives.

Apostle Dr Nyamekye Urges Pastors To Serve Beyond the Pulpit

by with No Comment Church NewsTop Stories

The Chairman of The Church of Pentecost and President of the Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council (GPCC), Apostle Dr Eric Nyamekye, has urged ministers and their spouses to embrace sacrifice, diligence, and holistic community service as core pillars of effective ministry.

Addressing pastors on Saturday, November 22, 2025 at the Juaboso Central Assembly in the Sefwi Juaboso Area of the Church, the Chairman noted that ‘the measure of ministry is the amount of sacrifice.’

He explained that true service sometimes involves attending to people who may not seem deserving and that sacrifice can at times feel like a total loss. The real success of ministry, he emphasized, is the degree to which the life of Christ flows through the minister.

Using the metaphor of a pipe, Apostle Dr Nyamekye encouraged pastors to cultivate purity and character: ‘The pipe inside of you should not only be open; it must be flawless.’

He urged ministers to work hard, serve wholeheartedly, and become pastors for the entire community – not only members of The Church of Pentecost. He called on them to ‘possess’ their communities, bless the chiefs and people, and yet not neglect the flock God has entrusted to them.

Speaking to pastors’ wives, he encouraged them to support their husbands by taking active roles in Bible studies, prayer, and ministry efforts. He advised them to maintain harmony with officers, pray daily with their spouses, and prioritize the education and welfare of their children.

He further recommended planning extra classes for their children or considering enrollment at the Koforidua Pentecost Preparatory School, which now has a modern hostel facility. He also reminded ministers to take their leave and rest.

Drawing from Colossians 4:13, he stressed that prayer is hard work, while Ecclesiastes 7:8 and Proverbs 16:4 served as reminders to stay committed, work together, and trust God to perfect all things concerning their lives and ministries.

Also present at the meeting was the Area Head for Sefwi Juaboso, Apostle Shadrack Ohene-Asa Otu. PENT NEWS

The Tema Area Youth Ministry of The Church of Pentecost has hosted a special fellowship and assessment meeting for District Youth Leaders, their spouses, and their children, an initiative described by many as a refreshing and first-of-its-kind experience within the Ministry.

The gathering, filled with warmth and anticipation, was organised to honour the vital role families play in supporting the work of district youth leaders. Speaking on behalf of the Tema Area Head, Apostle Isaac Nii Kotei Djani, and his wife, Mama Mary, the Area Youth Leader, Pastor Dr De-Graft Issaka, emphasized the unity that marriage brings and the shared responsibility that comes with ministry. He acknowledged the significant sacrifices made by spouses and families, noting that the demands of leadership often affect the home.

He expressed heartfelt appreciation to the spouses for their unwavering support and invited them to share their thoughts and expectations. The interactive session created a rare opportunity for open dialogue, which many spouses warmly welcomed.

Mrs Esther Issaka, wife of the Area Leader, also addressed the gathering. She commended the District Youth Leaders, their spouses, and their children for their dedication to the youth ministry and encouraged them to continue their good work, assuring them that God rewards faithful service both on earth and in eternity.

The children present were not left out of the fellowship. The Area Leader engaged them warmly, prayed for them, and blessed them for their often-unnoticed contribution to the Ministry through their patience and support.

The event featured moments of bonding through indoor games such as charades and pick-and-act, which brought leaders, spouses, and children together in an atmosphere of joy and shared fellowship.

At the close of the gathering, many participants expressed their gratitude for the thoughtful initiative and highlighted the renewed sense of unity it fostered among them.

The event served as a reminder that effective ministry is strengthened when families are strengthened, and the Tema Area Youth Ministry hopes to build on this foundation in future engagements.

Apostle Dr Eric Nyamekye, Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, has encouraged Christians to seek the true blessings of God by living lives of obedience, faithfulness, and integrity. He delivered the admonition during a service held at the Amoaya Zone in the Sefwi Juaboso Area on Friday, November 21, 2025.

Speaking on the topic ‘Blessings’, at the Amoaya Central Assembly of the Church, Apostle Dr Nyamekye explained that divine blessing goes far beyond material riches. According to him, God’s blessing manifests in wisdom, a good name, long life, good health, peace, and security.

‘Blessings are generational,’ he noted, emphasizing that God desires to increase His people across generations, as highlighted in Genesis 1:27–28.

He stressed that human appearance, whether tall or short, holds no bearing on one’s destiny. What matters, he said, is possessing a good name.

‘The enemy fights us because he did not create us, but God loves us and desires to bless us,’ he added.

Referencing Numbers 6:22–27, the Chairman pointed out that carrying the name of the Lord places believers under divine favour. However, he cautioned that certain lifestyles can hinder the flow of blessings.

‘Sometimes the reason blessings seem far is because of how we live. When we align ourselves with God, His blessings follow,’ he stated.

Apostle Dr Nyamekye further drew from Deuteronomy 28, reminding the congregation that obedience to God’s commandments is the key to attracting His blessings. He urged Christians not to be swayed by lustful desires but to pursue righteousness and prayerfully commit their livelihoods to God.

‘Ask God to bless your farm and everything you own,’ he encouraged, affirming that all true blessings come directly from the Lord.

The service formed part of the Chairman’s working visit to the Sefwi Juaboso Area.

The Dormaa Koraso District in the Dormaa Ahenkro Area of The Church of Pentecost has held a major Prayer Walk that attracted hundreds of participants and left a significant spiritual and social impact on the community.

The event, which took place on Saturday, October 18, 2025, and commenced at 4:30 a.m., saw Christians, non-Christians, and members of various denominations join the exercise, which covered more than 10 square kilometres of the town. Participants prayed, worshipped, and declared the Lordship of Christ over the land as they interceded for families, institutions, and the entire community.

The Prayer Walk recorded notable testimonies, including an instant healing of a woman who had been unable to walk for several years. According to eyewitnesses, the woman suddenly stood up, walked, and later joined the procession, drawing widespread amazement and praise to God.

The spiritual atmosphere also led to several conversions, as many residents reportedly gave their lives to Christ during the walk—one of the district’s most significant evangelistic outcomes in recent years.

Local chiefs and community leaders also expressed their appreciation for the initiative. Some leaders pledged to worship with the church, describing the event as a key contributor to peace, unity, and moral upliftment in the community.

The exercise concluded with a community breakfast sponsored by the District Minister, P/Overseer Godwin Agbedu Donkor, and his wife, Mrs. Judith Kafui Donkor.

Apostle Dr Eric Nyamekye, Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, conducted a visit on November 20, 2025, to social projects funded by Pentecost Social Services (PENTSOS) and the National Women’s Ministry in the Essam-Debiso Area, demonstrating the Church’s commitment to community development.

The visit began at the Pentecost Clinic in Yawmatwa, under the leadership of Professor Dr Godwin Ayitey. The clinic operates fully with a dedicated staff managing daily activities.

However, Dr Ayitey highlighted an urgent need for a Theatre and Operating Room to handle major cases locally, as current referrals to nearby hospitals sometimes jeopardize patient safety. Apostle Dr Nyamekye acknowledged the request and assured that the Church would consider this critical need.

Following the clinic, the Chairman toured two Skills Training Centres located in Yawmatwa and Essam. At the Yawmatwa centre, 27 students are undergoing a two-year dressmaking course.

Mrs Bernice Boateng, Head of the Centre, explained that upon completion, trainees receive stipends to help start their own businesses, empowering them with skills and economic opportunities.

The team also visited a fully funded hairdressing salon managed by Mary Osei Tutu. Similarly, the hairdressing training lasts two years, and each trainee will receive a hair dryer as part of their starter kit, enhancing their readiness for employment or entrepreneurship.

These impactful projects were established under the visionary leadership of Pastor Frank Awuah Fordjour, who, upon his appointment to oversee the Essam-Debiso Area, successfully introduced and integrated PENTSOS initiatives to uplift the community.

This visit underscores The Church of Pentecost’s ongoing dedication to social welfare and sustainable development through strategic investment in health and vocational training.
