His Spiritual Formation
Through my ministry to the Schools I met him while was teaching at Kansenshi Secondary School. When l preached in the Teacher Staffroom he surrendered his life to Christ. He was baptised in Water and later on during the Teachers Conference at Kaniki Bible College he was baptised in the Holy Spirit. This experience thrust him to higher spiritual heights. Because he so teachable and spiritually hungry became was appointed as an elder while at River of Life Ministries where l served as Senior Pastor.
In 2003 when we started Abundant Blessings Christian Centre he was a founding member and made immerse contribution in the area of church administration. In 2012 he left for Lusaka and was attached to Kingsway Destiny Ministries under late Apostle Asini Mwale. He and the family supported the church and again served as a leading Elder until their return to Ghana.
Mr Akyeh was very supportive not only to the church, but was a prolific proposal writer. He was a very forthright man , friendly and jovial. He will be put to rest on the 15th May 2026 in his home town in Ghana 🇬🇭.
We miss him and May Soul Rest in Eternal Peace.🙏🏽
