Brakwa Methodist raises funds for new mission house

Breman Brakwa (C/R), Dec. 14, GNA – The Brakwa Society of the Methodist Church of Ghana has raised GH ¢ 8,770 in an annual harvest to help facilitate some of its on-going projects.

Speaking to the GNA at Breman Brakwa in the Central Region, shortly after the harvest, the Superintendent Minister of the Brakwa Society of the Winneba Diocese, the Very Reverend (Major Retired), D. O. Afriyie-Manso, said the amount realized would let the society complete its new project on time.

He said plans were far advanced to construct a new chapel, to provide the congregation with a spacious and conducive environment for worship.

Very Rev Afriyie-Manso told the congregation that until the Lord comes they had an unfinished task to persist in propagating the word of God.

He urged them to be of the best behavior in order not to bring the name of the Lord, the church and the nation into disrepute.

He appealed to the congregation to co-operate with each other and help weed out the bad nuts among them.

Very Rev Afriyie-Manso called on people who have been appointed to high offices by the government, to endeavor to discharge their functions diligently and assiduously without any blemish.

The occasion was also used to pray for the President, Ministers of State and the nation for God’s guidance for the pursuit of policies that would lead to the growth and development of the country.

The function was chaired by Nana Yamoah IV, Chief of Breman Brakwa, who commended the church for its vision and pledged the community’s support to help back-up their efforts.
