The New Combine District Minister of The Church of Pentecost, Pastor Martin Berko Kesse, and his wife, Esther, have feted police personnel at both the District and Divisional Commands in Akosombo in the Eastern Region.
More than 100 officers of the Ghana Police Service enjoyed a hot lunch freely provided by the pastor and his wife. They were served with assorted meals such as Fufu, plain rice and waakye.
The gesture, according to Pastor Kesse, was to wish them a happy new year and to acknowledge their invaluable services to the community throughout the year. Pastor Kesse shared the word of God with the officers and prayed with them after the meals.
Inmates at the police cells also had their fair share of the sumptuous meal.
Meanwhile, Pastor Martin Kesse and his wife have volunteered to provide daily lunch to inmates at the cells. This is to show them love and to let them know that Jesus still loves them for who they are and that He will save them and change their lives if they accept Him as their master and Lord.
In response, the Divisional Police Commander, Chief Superintendent Isaac Obeng Dompre, thanked The Church of Pentecost for the societal impact the church is making in Ghana.
He called on the other churches to emulate it. The Divisional Commander confessed that he has been in the police service for close to 30 years but has never seen a church throwing such a gesture and kindness to the police before.
He, therefore, thanked the district pastor and his wife for their kind gesture and for volunteering to provide daily lunch to the people at the police cells.
