Ghana Update – September 2015 – Samson Abukari – Country Director
“All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath.But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.”(Ephesians 2:3-5)
Introduction
What a joy to have a relationship with Jesus Christ. We all were once ruled by our sinful nature but thankfully the love and mercy of God we are now victorious and alive in Jesus Christ. The grace of God is something that we have to cherish greatly for by it that we are who we are.

Samson led the career guidance sessions at the Ghana International Baptist Convention “GIBC” Mercy Academy. The Academy offered tuition and Christian values among others to over 200 Upper Primary and Junior High School students for three consecutive weeks.
