Mr Domo-Erinuu and his wife, Esther, have been blessed with a child after 11 years of marriage, a testament to the power of faith and perseverance in the Lord.
The couple, who worship at New Senchem Assembly in Wassa Senchem District in Twifo Praso Area of The Church of Pentecost, got married in 2014, with the expectation of starting a family immediately. However, after several years of waiting without any signs of having a child, they underwent various fertility tests, but all efforts proved futile.
Despite the challenges, the couple remained hopeful, and their faith was rewarded with a bouncing baby girl, after 11 years of marriage.
The joy of this miracles was celebrated at a christening ceremony of the baby girl on April 14, 2024, where the District Minister, Overseer Albert Kojo Quaicoe, spoke on the importance of raising children in the fear of God.
Overseer Quaicoe, using the Bible text from Genesis 18:18-19, emphasised the need for parents to ensure their children grow up with the principles and values of God, so they can become responsible members of the church and society.
He also cautioned that the waywardness of children can lead to the discontinuation of God’s blessings in a family as seen in the cases of Eli, the high priest and Samuel, the prophet in the Bible. He, therefore, advised parents to be deliberate in grooming their children to be upright, obedient and God-fearing.
The ceremony was attended by the wife of the district minister, Mrs Dorcas Quaiko, and other dignitaries.
The couple’s story serves as an inspiration to those who may be going through similar challenges, reminding them that with faith and perseverance, even the most seemingly impossible dreams can come true.
