THE Moderator of the General Assembly of the Evangelical Presbyterian (EP) Church, Right Reverend Francis Amenu, has stressed the need for Ghanaians to join forces to overcome the challenges of the time.
He said what might seem to be impossible could be accomplished through a united front, backed by the blessings of God.
Rt Rev Amenu was delivering a sermon to climax the centenary celebration of the Old Baika branch of the EP Church at Old Baika in the Jasikan District last weekend.
It was on the theme: “Uniting for Development”.
Rt Rev Amenu said there could be disagreements and conflicts in the pursuits of life but with a common goal, determination and as a united community of believers, they had made great achievements and produced many notable persons.
The District Chief Executive (DCE) for Jasikan, Nana Kumessy Bonsi, paid tribute to the forebears of the church for their resilience and fortitude, adding that their activities had impacted positively on the lives of the people.
Nana Kumessy Bonsi urged the church to speak for the common man and tell the truth to all manner of people, including politicians, adding that the church should serve as a check towards good management of institutions and reprimand those who mismanaged affairs.
The Chief of the town, Nana Kwaku Dua III, testified that the 100 years existence of the EP Church in the town had resulted in producing many quality sons and daughters for the town.
