Accra New Town Presby Church gets new district manse and office complex

A newly constructed ultra-modern manse of the Accra New Town Presbyterian Church has been dedicated to enable ministers of the gospel effectively run affairs of the church.

It was dedicated by the Moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, Rt Reverend Professor Joseph Obiri Yeboah Mante and assisted by the Chairperson of the Ga Presbytery, Rev. Dr Nana Opare Kwakye, the District Minister, Rev. M.G Anim-Tetey, among other ministers of the gospel.

A newly-constructed three-storey office complex located at the church premises for the district and a lorry park was also dedicated in addition to the manse.

The manse project commenced in December 2010, and consisted of eight bedrooms and auxiliary facilities, was financed by the members of the church, the district and individuals from home and abroad.

Delivering the sermon on the theme: “Baptism of the Lord, The Holy Spirit, The Witness”, Rt Rev. Prof. Mante admonished the church to have a renewed mind in establishing the kingdom’s agenda.

He urged the church to discard the old things and have a positive mindset for purposeful things.

“Let us have a new heart, spirit and mind and look forward onto God for 2022. I pray that there will be showers of blessings progressively”, he said.

Handing over the edifice to the church, Rt Rev. Prof. Mante asked the leadership of the church to maintain the edifice properly for the purpose of which it was built and dedicated.

The Chairperson of the Ga presbytery, Rev. Dr Kwakye who received the keys, then handed over to the district minister and pledged to utilise the facilities for the intended purposes.

The District Minister Rev Anim-Tetey commended the church and the leadership for their support and commitment towards the building of the manse.
