NEWS FROM GHANA

ACCRA

By the grace of God, I have now got a personal P.o.Box. The address is: P.o. Box 582, La-Accra, Ghana. Since April last year we have had five baptisms in Subri, one brother and four young sisters. two of the sisters are daughters of Bro. Amo and two are daughters of Bro. Sakyi.

I have now arranged to stay for two months in Accra and two months in Subri. With much training, Bro. Duncan okai Kotei, my son, has taken over the Sunday and Youth Section. I help him whenever I am in Subri. These five baptisms are his first products.

For three years now, Ghana and Ivory Coast have been having a Joint Bible School. our last School was from 12th ­ 15th october 2012. our usual place of meeting is Shama. The Bible School was successful and well attended and the theme was "Holding on to our Faith".

Apart from our daily morning devotions, six addresses were delivered. two brethren from Ivory Coast gave their addresses in French, two from the U.K. and two from Ghana. (I gave the 4th address, "Faith and Works".) our main interpreter was Bro. maximus mensah (a Ghanaian resident in Ivory Coast). We had two outings in the evening. The public preaching was given by Bro. Yosef Somua Anim of Accra ecclesia.

The 6th address, which was also a farewell message was, "The good fight of faith" and was given by Bro. Stephen Sykes. In his usual mood, he gave a

heart-touching address; a food for thought indeed.
