|| MODERATORIAL ADDRESS: STEWARDING THE CHURCH'S HERITAGE THROUGH CHRIST-CENTERED LEADERSHIP ||

Delivering his Moderatorial Address at the ongoing 26th General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana (PCG), the 19th Moderator, Rt. Rev. Dr. Abraham Nana Opare Kwakye, celebrated God’s faithfulness towards the Church over the past years.

He announced the theme for the 2026/2027 ecclesiastical year as “Celebrating Our Heritage: Building on the Foundation Already Laid” (1 Cor. 3:11). He updated the Assembly on the state of the Kutunse Project and also shared the state of the Church, including its membership and the progress of its mission.

‎Commenting on the ecclesiastical theme, the Moderator shed light on the core values of the PCG, emphasizing how they embody the character of Christ. He called on the Church to place premium on the transformation of people so that they would competently represent Jesus Christ.

‎In his view, spending time and resources building schools, chapels, manses, and other structures—which he described as tangible heritage—is commendable; however, doing so without transforming character would be a great disaster.

‎His address also touched on other important concerns, including elections within the Church, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and social media in the Church, welfare issues, national concerns, lessons from the collective history of the Church, and expressions of appreciation.

‎He concluded with a call to all and sundry to remain united and work together to build a Church that is spiritually vibrant, faithful to its heritage, and impactful in the world.

‎Soli Deo Gloria!

|| END OF TENURE THANKSGIVING & VALEDICTORY SERVICE: CELEBRATING A SHEPHERD AFTER GOD’S OWN HEART ||

‎“And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.” — Jeremiah 3:15

‎This is the remarkable story of the good people of the Brong Ahafo Presbytery of the PCG — a story of faith, service, sacrifice, progress, and remarkable achievements.

‎For the past five years, God, through the leadership of Rev. Benjamin Appiah, has led the Presbytery through a season of significant strides and remarkable accomplishments.

‎By God's grace, under the sterling leadership of Rev. Ben Appiah, the Presbytery has witnessed phenomenal growth. It has strengthened its Departments and Ministry Groups, advanced its mission and accomplished great exploits, all to the glory of God.

‎The Presbytery Session Council is therefore pleased to invite members of the Presbytery and the general public to the End of Tenure Thanksgiving and Valedictory Service in honour of the outgoing Chairperson, Rev. Benjamin Appiah, and his family.

‎The details are as follows:

‎Date: Sunday, August 30, 2026
‎Venue: PCG, Ebenezer Congregation, Sunyani
‎Time: 9:00am prompt.

‎The valedictory service will provide a unique opportunity to celebrate and appreciate their faithful service, remarkable stewardship, visionary leadership, and exceptional contribution to the growth of the 'Best Achievers' Presbytery.

‎As Rev. Benjamin Appiah brings his tenure as the Brong Ahafo Presbytery Chairperson to a close, the Presbytery is careful to pause, to give thanks to God for His faithfulness and to honour a shepherd whose service has left an indelible mark on the life and ministry of the Presbytery.

‎Soli Deo Gloria!

|| CHAIRPERSON DEDICATES NEW DUTY VEHICLE FOR TUOBODOM DISTRICT, PCG ||

‎To the glory of God, the Tuobodom District of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana has acquired a new duty vehicle to enhance pastoral work and facilitate effective coordination of ministry activities in the District.

‎The vehicle (Toyota Hilux) with registration number AD-3706-26 is expected to support the District’s mission work and help improve the mobility of Ministers in the discharge of their administrative and pastoral responsibilities.

‎Dedicating the vehicle in the presence of some members of the Presbytery Session Council, the Chairperson of Presbytery, Rev. Benjamin Appiah, commended the District for making the acquisition of the vehicle possible through their dedicated and sacrificial contributions.

‎Rev. Appiah encouraged the leadership of the District to ensure that the vehicle is properly maintained and used for the intended purpose. He prayed for God’s protection, care, and guidance for all who would use the vehicle.

‎The acquisition of the vehicle is a significant investment that will facilitate more frequent engagement between Ministers and members of the various Congregations and Preaching Points. It is a vital tool for evangelism and pastoral care, and will serve to strengthen pastoral presence across the District.

‎Soli Deo Gloria!

|| MS. NANCY ARTHUR MARKS END OF TENURE AS PRESBYTERY LAY REP WITH A CALL FOR RESPONSIBLE CREATION CARE ||

‎In an atmosphere of joyful celebration, the Brong Ahafo Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana (PCG) held an End of Tenure Thanksgiving Service in honour of the outgoing Presbytery Lay Representative to the General Assembly Council, Ms. Nancy Arthur. The colourful service brought together hundreds of worshippers to celebrate her sterling service and contributions to the Church.

‎Appreciating some key individuals, family members, friends and loved ones for their support during her tenure as the 11th Brong Ahafo Presbytery Lay Representative, Ms. Nancy acknowledged with profound respect that her membership on the General Assembly Council had been an eye-opener. She described the experience as “a season of learning, of stretching, and of shared labour.”

‎Ms. Nancy Arthur, the second female to occupy this position, after Madam Elizabeth Oba, who served from 2002 to 2008, further noted that she had learned how to wrestle with complex matters of Church administration and governance; an opportunity that had shaped her perspectives about the Church.

‎She paid glowing tributes to Very Rev. Prof. Joseph Obiri Yeboah Mante and Rt. Rev. Dr. Abraham Nana Opare Kwakye, the 18th and 19th Moderators of the General Assembly of the PCG respectively, during whose tenures she served. She also hailed Rev. Ben Appiah and his wife, Mama Charity, for their friendship and the incredible relationship they shared with her. She expressed her gratitude to both the ordained and laity for their support.

‎Preaching on the theme, “Celebrating Our Heritage: Building on the Foundation Already Laid: Our Environment and Our Future,” Ms. Nancy called on members to demonstrate their Christian faith in responsible environmental care. She emphasised that God desires human beings to take care of the world. The thrust of the sermon was a charge to Christians to be faithful stewards of the environment. Any Christian who pollutes the environment or remains obscurantist to matters of ecological injustice fails as a disciple of Christ.

‎She noted that humanity’s actions have contributed to 'ecological sins' and the “groaning” of creation (Romans 8:21–22). She called on Christians to desist from acts that compromise the integrity of God’s creation. “When we look around us, what can we say?” she quizzed, urging members to demonstrate responsible creation care. She admonished them not to destroy the earth for selfish interests but to make choices that preserve it for future generations. “We are not here to destroy but to build. Let’s create a healthy environment for all of us,” she charged.

‎In a brief address, Rev. Benjamin Appiah, Chairperson of Presbytery, expressed his deepest appreciation to Ms. Nancy for her faithful stewardship. He celebrated her dedication, distinctive service, and faithful partnership in representing the Brong Ahafo Presbytery on the General Assembly Council (GAC). On behalf of the entire Presbytery, the Chairperson presented a beautiful artwork to Ms. Nancy as a token of appreciation for her dedicated service.

‎Soli Deo Gloria!

|| MINISTERS' CONFERENCE IN PERSPECTIVE: RETREATING, REFRESHING, RENEWING ||

‎The Annual Conference of the Ministers’ Fellowship of the Brong Ahafo Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana is a special gathering that embodies a variety of activities: devotional services, business meetings, talks, intense prayer sessions, liturgical reflections, thought-provoking presentations that relate to the work of the ministry, and shared moments of deep fellowship and hearty interactions.

‎These activities are thoughtfully designed to provide a holistic experience that nurtures the spiritual, intellectual, professional, emotional, and relational well-being of Ministers. Again, the Conference offers Ministers a 'sacred space' to pause from the demands of ministry, reflect on their calling, seek God’s direction, and draw strength from God and one another.

‎It provides an opportune time for Ministers to share experiences, encourage one another, address common challenges, and explore effective ways to strengthen the ministry and mission of the Church. It is a solemn, reflective moment of building spiritual capacity, learning and growing, bonding and fellowship, planning and preparation, and discerning God's will for His Church as the new ecclesiastical year approaches.

‎At this year's Ministers' Conference held last week, a charge was given to Ministers of the Gospel to cultivate right perspectives for the ministry. The conference theme, "Celebrating Our Heritage, Building on the Foundation Already Laid: The Minister in Perspective", sought to call Ministers to rethink their motivation, convictions, and ministerial purpose statements of their callings.

‎The Conference Speaker, Rev. Ben Appiah, the Presbytery Chairperson, used his own calling narrative to inspire members. Knowing that one was called by God's grace, as the Apostle Paul puts it in 1 Corinthians 1:26–29, gives every Minister a better and true perspective of himself or herself and the sacred responsibility entrusted to them. He urged members to see things from God’s perspective rather than through human limitations, challenges, disappointments, or personal ambitions.

‎He reminded Ministers that the call to the Ordained Ministry is not about status, fame, recognition, comfort, or material gain, but about God’s grace, purpose, and glory. He urged them to continually remember who called them, why they were called, and whose glory they serve. Such an understanding, he noted, enables Ministers to remain humble, faithful, resilient, and focused even in difficult seasons, while serving God’s Church with renewed commitment and gratitude for the privilege of their calling.

‎Soli Deo Gloria!

|| ‎"FOCUS ON THE WORK OF THE MINISTRY, DON'T CHASE MONEY" — CHAIRPERSON ||

‎The Chairperson of the Brong Ahafo Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Rev. Benjamin Appiah, has called on Ministers of the Gospel to prioritize the work of the Ministry, while trusting God to supply them with their material needs graciously. In his words, Christian ministry is God's sacred trust that requires focused service and diligence, making the most of the opportunity to serve God and the Church selflessly.

‎Speaking at the 2026 annual Presbytery Ministers' Conference held at Peniel Retreat Centre, Ayakomaso, Rev. Appiah intimated that, unfortunately, some Ministers approach the work of ministry with wrong perspectives. He observed that, sometimes, some Ministers become preoccupied with pursuing money and material blessings at the expense of faithful pastoral service and the mission entrusted to them by Christ.

‎In a strong apostolic voice, Rev. Ben Appiah cautioned Ministers to constantly revisit their Marching Orders, reminding them that when they faithfully seek first the Kingdom of God and devote themselves wholeheartedly to the work of the ministry, God remains faithful to provide for their needs."Don't chase money, do the work, and the money will come to you", he stated, with a practical demonstration.

‎The Chairperson further emphasized that the office of a Minister is a sensitive and critical position in the Church, entrusted with delicate and enormous spiritual responsibilities. He stressed that as shepherds of God's flock, Ministers are called to lead with integrity, humility, sacrifice, passion, and commitment, recognizing that they will one day give an account of their stewardship before God.

‎|| PCG, FAITH CONGREGATION CHAPEL, DUMASUA, DEDICATED TO THE GLORY OF THE TRIUNE GOD ||

‎The Faith Congregation at Dumasua in the Fiapre District of the Brong Ahafo Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana (PCG) has dedicated its chapel to the glory of the triune God, marking the successful completion of a vision that began fourteen years ago.

‎Preaching the sermon at the dedication service, Rev. Benjamin Appiah, the outgoing Chairperson of the Presbytery, challenged members to be more confident in God's grace and power to accomplish great things in and through their lives. According to him, most people, especially the youth, postpone their dreams and visions because they believe they need abundant resources before taking the first step, a mindset that delays progress and fails to depend on the power of God's grace.

‎Reflecting on the theme "Thus Far the Lord Has Brought Us" (Psalm 126:1–6, Luke 1:37), he urged members to trust God's grace and move toward fulfilling their visions and goals. Connecting his reflections to the history of the Faith Congregation, he noted that 14 years ago, when members worshipped in the old, smaller chapel, they hardly envisioned that some time in the future, they would ever behold such a beautiful chapel that would be dedicated.

‎The Chairperson stressed that every great achievement begins with a small step. He therefore encouraged the Congregation never to despise humble beginnings, emphasizing that what may seem impossible to human beings is possible with God, echoing the assurance in Luke 1:37 that "For with God nothing shall be impossible." He urged them to preserve the legacy they had inherited, and charged them to use the chapel as a place where lives would be transformed, the Gospel faithfully proclaimed, and God's name continually glorified.

‎Rev. Ben Appiah acknowledged the collective efforts of members that had made the project a reality. He paid tribute to all the Ministers who had served the Congregation over the years. He celebrated their dedication, commitment, achievements, and sacrifices that contributed to the successful completion of the chapel. He indicated that it was their years of sacrifice, prayer, giving, and perseverance that had borne fruit, and the dedication of the chapel stood as a testimony to God's unfailing grace.

‎Soli Deo Gloria!

|| ADOM (GRACE) AND ASOMDWE (PEACE): THE POWER OF THE SPOUSES' GREETING ||

‎The Ministers' Spouses Conference of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana greets one another, saying, "Adom" (Grace), to which the response is "ne Asomdwe" (and Peace). These words—'Adom' and 'Asomdwe'—are divine provisions that God bestows upon humanity. Indeed, biblically and theologically speaking, both words are personified in Jesus Christ. Christ is God's inexpressible gift of grace and peace to mankind.

‎Grace (Adom) is God's unmerited favour. It is an investment of His enabling power for every divine assignment. It is through grace that believers are called, sustained, equipped, and made effective in service. Peace (Asomdwe) is the gift of Christ that calms troubled hearts, restores hope, and assures believers of God's presence even in seasons of uncertainty.

‎The greeting echoes the apostolic benedictions of the New Testament, where Apostle Paul repeatedly begins his letters with, "Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ." Thus, "Adom ne Asomdwe" is more than a customary greeting or salutation; it is a declaration of faith and a prayer of God's blessings.

‎Every exchange of "Adom" and the response "ne Asomdwe" is indeed an affirmation that God's grace is sufficient for every assignment and that His peace will sustain His people until their work is complete. It's a reminder to every Minister's Spouse, and by extension, every child of God, that they are called to serve under the covering of God's grace and to become a channel of His peace to the Church, the family, and the world.

Solomon spent seven years building the temple of the Lord, and the Bible testifies that in the eighth month (August), he furnished it, in all its parts, according to all its specifications (1Kings 6:38). May 'grace' and 'peace' release help to you to finish whatever you're doing!

Soli Deo Gloria!

|| FAITHFUL STEWARDSHIP IN GOD'S HOUSE: SAFEGUARDING THE CHURCH'S RESOURCES FOR EFFECTIVE MINISTRY ||

‎On Friday, July 31, 2026, the Brong Ahafo Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana inaugurated its Committee on Property Management and Logistics. The inaugural ceremony, officiated by the Chairperson of Presbytery, Rev. Benjamin Appiah, signals a strategic approach to safeguarding the Church's resources for effective ministry.

‎In an exhortation on the theme, "Called to Serve," Rev. Michael Konadu Boateng, the Presbytery Director of Administration and Human Resource Management (AHRM), charged the Committee members to use the opportunity given them to serve to advance the work of the Lord. He noted that the Christian call to service is a call to responsibility. He encouraged members to offer themselves as selfless servants who faithfully discharge their duties for the glory of God and the growth of the Church.

The Chairperson urged the Committee to work within the confines of the Constitution and the Manual of Order of the Church. He encouraged members to work assiduously to protect the Church's properties and other resources entrusted to their care. He further cautioned them not to act in any capacity as trustees of the Church or sign any document on behalf of the Church. He expressed optimism that with dedication, integrity, and faithful service, the Committee would significantly strengthen property management and logistics within the Presbytery.

‎Speaking at the inaugural ceremony, Mr. Robert Dzokoto, the Presbytery Property Manager, indicated that the Brong Ahafo Presbytery is one of the few Presbyteries that has been able to inaugurate the Property Management and Logistics Committee. He stated that the PCG has always valued order, accountability, discipline, and stewardship—essential qualities that must be reflected in the management of the Church's resources. He encouraged members to uphold these values as they execute their mandate.

‎The Clerk of Presbytery, Rev. Bright Ofosu Asiedu, took the Committee through its duties as stipulated in Order 23, Rule 5, Section 2 of the Manual of Order of the Church, highlighting the strategic importance of the Committee in the Church's administration, urging members to take keen interest in the maintenance, proper documentation, preservation, and effective utilisation of Church properties. He reminded them that faithful stewardship of the Church's assets is an essential contribution to the advancement of God's mission.

‎The Committee is expected to provide oversight of the acquisition, maintenance, utilisation, and protection of the Presbytery's properties and logistics, ensuring that the Church's resources are managed efficiently, transparently, and in accordance with the policies of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana.

‎Soli Deo Gloria!
