The Northern Sector of the Ministry to Persons with Disabilities (MPWDs) of The Church of Pentecost has organised a maiden MPWDs sports evangelism for Persons With Disabilities (PWDs) in the Greater Kumasi enclave.
The programme was held on September 23, 2024, at the Edwenase Disability Rehabilitation Center in Kumasi.
The event, which was under the auspices of the Ashanti Regional Coordinator of the church, Apostle Yaw Adjei-Kwarteng, who also doubles as the Kwadaso Area Head, had participants drawn from the Kwadaso and Bompata Areas, Ghana Society for the Physically Disabled (GSPD) in the Kwadaso Municipal, and the students of the Edwenase Disability Rehabilitation Center. In all, over 250 PWDs were in attendance.
In a short sermon, the Northern Sector Coordinator of MPWDs, Overseer Joshua Korku Semador, indicated that Jesus is the source of light.
‘Jesus is the light of the world and no one who runs to the light will ever stay or walk in darkness,’ he said, adding: ‘Run to Jesus and you will have eternal life.’
At the end of the event, 48 PWDs gave their lives to Christ, while 18 were baptised in water.
In attendance were Pastor Daniel Konlan (District Minister for Atwima Techiman and Area MPWDs Coordinator for Kwadaso), Pastor Benjamin Octere (Kwadaso Agric District Minister), Pastor Blankson (PIWC Kwadaso Resident Minister), Elder Patrick Opoku Appiah (Bompata Area MPWDs Coordinator) and Mr Delali Otumfour (Manager of Edwenase Disability Rehabilitation Centre).
