The New Tafo Area of The Church of Pentecost has donated food items worth GHC 20,000.00 to the Pentecost Senior High School (PENSEC) in Kumasi.
The gesture, which took place on Monday, October 24, 2022, was a response to the request made by the school through the New Tafo Area to the Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye.
The items, which included 30 boxes of tomato paste, 17 boxes of mackerel, three boxes of sardine, two bags of sugar, 16 bags of rice, a bag of beans and groundnuts, were donated by a delegation led by the Area Head, Prophet Samuel Tetteh Doku.
Prophet Tetteh Doku revealed that the donation made under the auspices of the Head Office of The Church of Pentecost was to help mitigate the food shortage situation in the school. He expressed profound appreciation to the leadership of the Church for the support.
Receiving the items on behalf of the school, the Headmaster, Elder Albert Mensah, thanked the Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, the Executive Council, the New Tafo Area Head and the pastorate for the kind gesture, saying, “The food items will go a long way to solve the food shortage situation facing the school.”
He also appreciated the continued effort and support the Church provides for the school despite it being handed to government.
Members of the Area Executive Committee, the Area Women’s Ministry Executive Committee, a section of the New Tafo Area pastorate and wives, and staff of PENSEC, together with some students, were present at the short presentation ceremony.
