Ghana Update – January 2024
GOATS PROJECT
“Love comes in different ways and sometimes it can be amazing such that if care is not taken you might not see it as such. Who would have thought that someone distant from our community and family will be so thoughtful of me to the extent that my future is being considered by him. I am very positive that this gesture has brought back hope to me and my children”- A word from a guardian of an orphan after benefiting from the goat project.
SEED OF HOPE BROADCAST
“Truly there are some words or teachings when you listen to them, they don’t only offer you hope but real life. I am not a Christian but I can confidently tell you that none will make time to listen to the Seed of Hope Broadcast consecutively and will not experience transformation in his/her life.” This statement comes from a non-Christian listener testifying about the program.
“I just want to encourage our Pastor to continue to teach us and assure him that his teachings have caused tremendous transformation in the lives of the listeners. I am saying this because when I look at my life, I can testify that I am a different person. Those around me know and can testify that of that truth- something positive has happened in my life. One virtue that I cannot forget about which I have acquired through the weekly teachings is self-control. Things that easily made angry, especially when I was mocked and given nick names for my relationship with Christ, are no longer a problem to me.” From one of our Christian listeners.
WIDOWS GATHERING
Being a widow can be a difficult situation but even more difficult when living in a community where life can be misunderstood with a very little population of believers in Christ Jesus. It was however, a great joy reminding a number of widows their identity in Christ, the need for an intimate relationship with Christ and for the need for them to put their trust in the One who owns everything.
Prayer Needs
- Appreciate God for all the partners who have stood with U4A in diverse ways to keep the transformation agenda of communities and the love of Christ moving across nations.
- Pray for the Holy Spirit’s direction as we move into the New Year.
- Ask for God’s unending grace for the Seed of Hope Broadcast as we move into the coming weeks and months with new series.
- Pray for Ghana as the nation goes to the polls in 2024 that peace will reign.
Yours in His Vineyard
