Pentecost Preparatory Honours Late Mrs Agatha Amoah with Academic Block

by with No Comment Church NewsPENTSOSTop Stories

An academic block at the Pentecost Preparatory School in Madina has been named in honour of the late Mrs Agatha Amoah, a pioneer of the institution and wife of former General Secretary of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Albert Amoah (Retired).

The dedication took place during a short but significant ceremony held at the school premises on Wednesday January 28,2025.

Pentecost Preparatory School was founded in 1985 as Arm of the Lord by then Mr Albert Amoah and his wife, the late Mrs Agatha Amoah. The establishment of the school was inspired by a vision God placed in the heart of Mrs Amoah, which later grew into a fully functioning educational institution.

In 1994, the school was donated to The Church of Pentecost after two unsuccessful attempts by the couple to hand it over to new management. This decision was necessitated by their increasing responsibilities in full-time ministry, as Apostle Amoah became actively engaged in pastoral duties.

Speaking at the naming ceremony, Apostle Albert Amoah (Retired) described the school as “a seed of thought planted in the mind of my late wife many years ago,” noting that what began as a simple vision has today become a lasting legacy impacting generations of children.

The General Secretary of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Samuel Gyau Obuobi, who also addressed the gathering, urged Christians and leaders to live purpose-driven lives that leave enduring legacies for future generations. He emphasised that great achievements often begin as small ideas.

“Everything starts like a seed,” he said, “but when it is well looked after and watered, it grows into something positive.”

Apostle Obuobi further encouraged resilience in the face of opposition and challenges, drawing lessons from the perseverance of Apostle Amoah and his late wife, who faced significant resistance during the early years of the school’s operations.

Touching on the importance of memorials, he referenced Joshua 4:1–6, explaining that God instructed the Israelites to set up a memorial of stones as a reminder of His intervention when the River Jordan parted. According to him, such memorials serve as reminders of God’s faithfulness and human obedience.

In a related announcement, Apostle Albert Amoah (Retired) unveiled the establishment of the Agatha Amoah Excellence Award, which will be presented to students who demonstrate outstanding academic performance, with a special focus on excellence in English Literature.

Apostle Dr Nyamekye Entreats Believers To Trust In The Spirit’s Power web

Apostle Dr Nyamekye Entreats Believers To Trust In The Spirit’s Power

by with No Comment Church NewsMoving With ChairmanTop Stories

The Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Dr Eric Nyamekye, has stated that while the incomprehensibility of God may be difficult to grasp, the answer to life’s challenges has always been the abiding presence and power of the Holy Spirit.

Speaking at the Officers’ Retreat for officers in Kumasi on Thursday, January 15, 2026, at the Asokwa Pentecost International Worship Centre (PIWC), Kumasi, on the theme: “The Holy Spirit Shall Come Upon You and the Power of the Most High Will Overshadow You” (Luke 1:29–38), Apostle Dr Nyamekye encouraged believers to cultivate steadfast faith, stressing that officers of the church must exemplify strong faith to inspire members in fulfilling God’s purpose.

Expounding on the angel Gabriel’s annunciation to Mary, Apostle Dr Nyamekye noted that her question, “How will this be?” reflected the natural human concern with practicalities. Yet, he said, the divine response was clear: with God, all things are possible.

“You may not be able to figure out how it is going to happen or how the situation will be turned around, but there is abundant evidence that what God has said, He will do,” he declared.

He cautioned against the tendency to complain, which he described as a distraction from receiving from God. Citing the man at the pool of Bethesda, who lamented his 38 years of infirmity when asked by Jesus if he wished to be healed, Apostle Dr Nyamekye said: “The answer has always been the same – the Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you.”

The Chairman further warned believers to be discerning about what they hear, as hearing shapes conduct, faith, or fear, saying, “Both faith and fear come by hearing. Fear paralyses, but faith quickens and revives.”

Illustrating with the story of Jairus in Mark 5:21–23, Apostle Dr Nyamekye explained how the report of his daughter’s death could have extinguished faith, yet Jesus’ presence brought life. He urged Christians not to be swayed by discouraging voices but to build faith through God’s word.

“There are many voices in this world – the devil speaks, people speak, our own spirit speaks, and God also speaks. No matter how reasonable a voice may sound, consider its source and content carefully,” he advised.

Apostle Dr Nyamekye concluded by admonishing the gathering not to be enslaved by fear but to strengthen their faith through right hearing, thereby deepening their connection with God for effective Kingdom work.

Be Aggressive In Your Pursuit Of The Holy Spirit – Pastor Yeboah To Youth

by with No Comment Church NewsTop StoriesYouth Ministry

The Resident Minister of PENSA at the University of Ghana Campus, Pastor Fedalis Yeboah, has urged young Christians to be intentional and fervent in seeking the Holy Spirit, stressing that life becomes frustrating without the power of God’s Spirit.

According to him, life’s purpose is only truly meaningful when one walks fully in the Spirit without gratifying the desires of the flesh. Therefore, seeking the Spirit’s power should be a top priority for every believer seeking transformation.

Speaking on the theme, “Generating Power through Baptism in the Holy Spirit and Infilling” with reference to Acts 1:4–8, during the Friday morning session of the 2026 PENSA Ghana Conference at the KNUST Campus, Pastor Yeboah explained that receiving power from God enables believers to witness the Gospel boldly, regardless of circumstances, because divine backing is assured when proclaiming the Good News.

Using an electrical device as an analogy, he illustrated that just as a gadget requires a consistent power source to charge its battery and function effectively, so does life. Without power, life becomes frustrating.

“A phone or laptop battery must be charged by a power source to perform its duties, just like a car that relies on fuel to operate,” he said.
“Without the source, these devices are useless—and that is what life is like. Young people must understand that it takes power to fulfil one’s purpose and make a meaningful impact on society,” he added.

He challenged the congregation to move beyond merely having the Holy Spirit dwell within them after accepting Christ, and instead allow the Spirit to become the owner and overseer of their lives through baptism in the Spirit.

“The Holy Spirit dwelling in you is a seal that makes you a member of His Body. He resides in you—but until He moves from tenancy to presidency, you will remain an ordinary, frustrated Christian,” he stated.

Pastor Yeboah further advised the gathering not to rely solely on books but to urgently and aggressively pursue the power of the Holy Spirit. Through Him, holiness is demonstrated, boldness is secured, and the gifts and fruits of the Spirit are manifested for transformation.

Addressing misconceptions about the existence and operations of the Holy Spirit, the University of Ghana Campus PENSA Pastor clarified that although counterfeits and false spirits may attempt to imitate the workings of God’s Spirit, the Holy Spirit is real and given by God for the edification of the Church and empowerment of believers.

PIWC Sakumono Women Bring Christmas Joy To New Life Orphanage

by with No Comment Church NewsTop StoriesWomen's Ministry

The Women’s Ministry of the Pentecost International Worship Centre (PIWC), Sakumono, on Friday, December 26, 2025, donated assorted items and cash to the New Life Orphanage Home at Nungua as part of activities marking the District’s Christmas convention.

The items presented included bags of rice, cooking oil, tinned fish, bottled water, assorted soft drinks, milk, biscuits and snacks, soaps, sanitary pads, clothing, and other essentials to support the children’s upkeep at the home. In addition, the ministry made a cash donation of GH¢5,000 to help cater for the needs of the inmates.

Presenting the items on behalf of the District, the wife of the Resident Minister, Dr Mrs Theresah Fianko-Larbi, assisted by the wife of the Associate Minister, Dr Salomey Mensah-Tandoh, said the gesture was inspired by the love of Christ, adding that Jesus Christ died to bring peace to the world.

She explained that the theme for this year’s Christmas convention was “Jesus Christ, Spirit Conceived, Gospel Unleashed.” She noted that the ministry deemed it important to demonstrate that unleashed love by reaching out to the vulnerable in society and helping to meet their basic needs.

Dr Salomey Mensah-Tandoh offered prayers for the children and staff of the orphanage on behalf of the District, committing their lives and future into God’s hands.

Responding on behalf of the Home, the Head and owner, Nii Afotey Botwe II, expressed profound gratitude to the Women’s Ministry for the kind gesture and their continuous support over the years. He recounted that he started the orphanage about 25 years ago and, by God’s grace, it now houses over 92 children.

He disclosed that some of the children are currently in tertiary institutions, including universities and nursing training colleges, while others have been enrolled in vocational skills training and public schools within the community. He added that the home also supports some disabled persons and occasionally offers food and shelter to individuals who walk in seeking help.

Nii Afotey Botwe II thanked the ministry for bringing hope and joy to the children, especially during the Christmas season.

God Rewards Faithful Service – Chairman Encourages Leaders During Weija Area Visitation

by with No Comment Church NewsMoving With ChairmanTop Stories

The Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Dr Eric Nyamekye, has commenced a four-day working visit to the newly created Weija Area, beginning on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, with an impactful All Officers’ Session held at the New Weija Central (Mandela).

The atmosphere was filled with excitement and expectation as officers and church leaders gathered to receive spiritual impartation. The Chairman, equally energised and purposeful, delivered a poignant message grounded in Hebrews 6:9–10 and Psalm 103:1–5, reminding leaders that although the Church does not remunerate with money, God Himself faithfully rewards the labour of His servants.

“God is a rewarder; He is not unjust,” he stated, encouraging officers to work even harder now that the Weija Area – carved out of the Kasoa Area earlier this year – has been fully established and entrusted to their stewardship.

Drawing further from 1 Chronicles 9:10–11 and 11:10–11, Apostle Dr Nyamekye highlighted that God remembers those who support His work. “David’s helpers were mentioned by name to show that no one who serves faithfully is ever forgotten,” he noted. He urged leaders to actively support their Area Head and contribute wholeheartedly to building a strong and vibrant Area.

The Chairman emphasised faithfulness as the primary support every leader must bring; faithfulness in prayer, faithfulness in handling church resources, and faithfulness in performing all duties through the power of the Holy Spirit. Quoting Richard Baxter, he reminded them that ministers must continually seek “light, life, and strength from God,” for human ability alone is insufficient for the sacred work of ministry.

He admonished church leaders, especially preachers, to cultivate a strong prayer life. “A prayerless ministry brings loss to God’s church,” he cautioned. Members, he added, must also pray for their pastors. “We do not qualify to criticise pastors we do not pray for,” he said, advising leaders to lovingly correct those who specialise in fault-finding rather than supporting the ministry.

Referencing Jonathan Edwards, the Chairman remarked that many ministers would achieve far more if believers used the same energy spent on criticism to pray for them. “You cannot change what you do not love,” he said, warning that yielding to the enemy’s accusing spirit weakens church leadership.

Apostle Dr Nyamekye further assured the officers that God’s presence is the true beauty and power of the Church. He urged them not to oppose the Church but to appreciate its divine heritage. “Believe in the God of this Church. Bless the Church, and it will bless you in return,” he concluded.

Also in attendance were Mrs Mary Nyamekye, wife of the Chairman; Apostle Isaac Amatey Anim, Weija Area Head; ministers and their wives; retirees and widows; Area Executive Committee members; and Pastor Benjamin Quaye Ofei-Badu (National Coordinator for HUM)

Christ Alone Has Power To Save, Transform Lives – Apostle Edzii Davidson

by with No Comment Church NewsEvangelism MinistryTop Stories

Apostle Samuel Edzii Davidson, Sefwi Wiawso Area Head of The Church of Pentecost, has proclaimed that salvation, transformation, and eternal life are found in Jesus Christ alone.

Preaching on the theme “We Have Seen Him, Christ the Saviour” from 1 John 4:14 at the ongoing “Tamale For Christ” crusade on Thursday, November 27, 2025, at the Jubilee Park, he stressed that the deepest need of humanity is a true Saviour, and that Jesus remains the only one qualified to redeem the world.

He affirmed that the Christian message stands on a firm testimony: the encounter with the Son of God, who is the Saviour of all.

Apostle Davidson explained that anyone who genuinely encounters Jesus experiences a complete change in destiny and lifestyle. He noted that Christ alone possesses the power to transform a person’s life in a way no human effort can achieve.

He said a life touched by Christ cannot remain the same because the Lord redirects destinies and brings individuals into alignment with God’s purpose. He emphasised that salvation through Christ rescues humanity from sin and eternal death.

To die without Christ, he noted, is to die in one’s sins, but to die in Christ is to enter eternity with forgiveness and hope. He therefore urged all gathered to accept Jesus as their Saviour, describing salvation as a gift freely offered to all who believe.

Speaking on transformation, he indicated that Jesus delivers individuals from ungodly and sinful lifestyles and releases their God-given potential.

According to him, a crooked life suppresses destiny, but an encounter with Christ empowers individuals to impact their generation in righteousness and godliness. On divine healing, he assured the congregation that Christ’s power extends to every form of sickness – whether congenital, hereditary, or long-standing – affirming that no infirmity is beyond the reach of Jesus’ healing touch.

Apostle Davidson highlighted the uniqueness of Christ’s resurrection as the foundation of the Christian faith, contrasting it with the graves of other religious leaders that still exist. He reminded the audience that the empty tomb is the eternal proof that Jesus is alive and continues to save and transform lives.

Concluding his message with 1 Peter 2:24, he declared that Christ bore humanity’s sins on the cross, giving Him the authority to forgive. He added that those who believe in Jesus receive power to live victoriously because the risen Lord imparts strength and new life to all who trust in Him.

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

Apostle Dr Nyamekye Exhorts Believers To Pursue God’s Blessings Through Obedience

by with No Comment Church NewsMoving With ChairmanTop Stories

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.

36-Year-Old Woman Miraculously Healed Of Mysterious Illness

by with No Comment Church NewsTestimonies

A remarkable testimony of healing was recorded in the Sogakope District of The Church of Pentecost during a morning prayer session held on Friday, October 10, 2025, at the Bethel Assembly Prayer Grounds.

The service, led by the Sogakope District Minister, Pastor Frederick Tetteh, became a moment of divine encounter for Madam Doris Akakpo, a 36-year-old resident of Yedzi.

According to the family, Madam Akakpo travelled to Agave Avegagorme on September 20, 2025, to visit her children, who reside with their father. Upon her arrival, her younger daughter ran to welcome her.

This development reportedly resulted in a misunderstanding between Madam Akakpo and her former mother-in-law, who was present at the time and maintained that Madam Akakpo no longer had the right to visit the children following the dissolution of her marriage.

The following morning, Madam Akakpo woke up unable to hear or speak and was physically weak – requiring support to walk and perform basic activities. Her condition persisted for a week.

She was later taken to the hospital on Friday, September 26, 2025, but after a week without improvement, her younger brother, Deacon Wisdom Hodoameda, sought her discharge on Saturday, October 5, 2025, so he could care for her at home.

With faith in God, Deacon Hodoameda brought his sister to the Bethel Assembly Prayer Grounds on Friday, October 10, 2025, during a prayer session. It was during this period of intercession that Madam Akakpo experienced what witnesses described as an immediate and complete healing. She began to speak, sing, and walk unaided, prompting heartfelt praise to God from those present.

The congregation expressed gratitude to God for the divine intervention.
