Assemblies of God Ghana breaks ground on ambitious Church construction project

In a significant development demonstrating visionary leadership within the Assemblies of God Ghana, the General Superintendent, Rev. Stephen Wengam, alongside the Regional Superintendent for the Greater Accra East region, Rev. Andrew Nelson Awintia, spearheaded the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of 30 churches and parsonages in Ada Ningo Prampram.

This ambitious project, a testament to their strategic foresight and commitment to community development, is sponsored by the First Sky Group. The group is led by Mr. Eric Seddy Kutortse, a dedicated member and Deacon at the Trinity Temple Assemblies of God (TTAG) in Tema Community 10, and the Executive Chairman of First Sky Group.

The groundbreaking ceremony, held at New Ningo Prampram , saw the attendance of several dignitaries, including the Senior Pastor, Rev. Sylvanus Elorm Amegashie, and all Executive Committee members of the region, as well as numerous church members.

The legacy project, in alignment with Rev. Wengam’s vision, aims to provide suitable places of worship and decent accommodation for pastors. Mr. John Awate, a member of the project committee, announced that a four-member committee has been established to oversee the construction.

 Each church structure will accommodate 200–450 people and include a children’s worship centre, a general office, a pastor’s office, and other necessary amenities.

Rev. Wengam emphasised the importance of the project, noting that 60% of their churches are located in rural areas, making the construction of appropriate houses of worship challenging. He highlighted two key components of the church’s transformative goal: the Rebuild initiative, which focuses on constructing temples under the Legacy Project, and the Reach Agenda, led by the Church Planting Commission.

He called on businesses and individuals in Ghana to contribute to the legacy project, stressing its vital role in building and completing temples across the nation.
