THE Haatso Calvary Congregation of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana (PCG) has marked its 25th anniversary, with a call on Ghanaians to prepare for an expansion and growth in their spiritual lives.
Speaking on the theme, “Enlarge your territories”, the Chairman of the Ga Presbytery (PCG), Reverend Professor Emmanuel Martey, said, “God is about to bring an unprecedented expansion and growth. Therefore, His people must prepare. They are to extend all boundaries and make their dwelling places larger to accommodate such an extraordinary growth.”
He said ‘the church’ stood for the people of God and, therefore, the enlargement of territories meant winning more souls for God.
He took the opportunity to challenge Christians to intensify their passion for evangelism, as well as their evangelistic commitment, adding that the theme rightly expressed God’s love and restoration for His people.
Rev Prof Martey observed that the tremendous structural changes made by the church indicated that it was extending its territories, adding that the people should, therefore, trust the Lord to increase their growth.
In all, 40 people were rewarded at the service for their distinguished service to the church.
The anniversary was marked with activities such as a revival service, a march through Haatso and Papao, a clean-up exercise, as well as a candle-light procession.
The anniversary is scheduled to end with a dinner and awards night which will take place at the forecourt of the church at Haatso, near Accra, on November 29, 2008.
