CHURCH DONATES TO AMAKOM ORPHANAGE (PAGE 23)

THE Women’s Ministry of Amakom District of the Assemblies of God Church has donated various items to the Columbus Orphanage at Medoma in Kumasi.
The donation formed part of the women ministry’s outreach programme to interact with the deprived in society.
The items, including food, used clothes, toilet rolls, a box each of Key bar soap and sugar, were presented on behalf of the Women’s Ministry by Reverend Mrs Addai Kwarteng.
The presentation offered opportunity for the members to share the word of God with the orphans as a way of teaching them good values and morals that would enhance their integration into society.
Making the presentation, Rev. Mrs Kwarteng gave the assurance that the members would undertake regular outreach programmes to the orphanage and interact with the inmates to enable them to appreciate the values of love and sharing.
She said that would sensitise the inmates to lead responsible lifestyles while developing their potential in order to contribute meaningfully towards sustainable socio-economic development in future.
Rev. Kwarteng commended the supervisor and staff of the orphanage for the love they had been showing the inmates.
He promised that the members would pay regular visits to them to motivate the inmates to effectively focus on their academic programmes.
The Supervisor, Mr Prince Opoku Boateng, who received the items, expressed his profound gratitude to the church for the gesture.
He said the items would be distributed to the inmates.
Mr Boateng appealed to individuals, organisations and institutions to pay regular visits to the inmates and provide them some of their needs.
