Ghana Updates – February 2025

RADIO- A POWERFUL TOOL FOR THE GOSPEL

Day after day we hear stories of people testifying of how they have been impacted by our weekly radio program dubbed “Seed of Hope” Broadcast. The exciting thing about these stories is that non – Christians especially, our ‘neighbors’ and communities who hitherto would have resisted any form of the Gospel presentation at the place, through the power of radio, comfortably listen to the Gospel. Again, they are part of those who confess that they are eagerly waiting for the broadcast because of how it has helped to shape their lives.

Right now, there is an opening from another radio station which has expressed interest in also having our weekly broadcast aired in their studios, as they are aware of the credibility of the content of ‘Seed of Hope’ Broadcast.

EMPOWERING DISCIPLE MAKERS

The need for empowering Disciple-makers has been seen to be very greet looking at the number of people who are passing through the gates of the Church week after week yet without any commensurate Christ-like lifestyle exhibited at home and the marketplace. Samson through TTI has been part of the regular periodic trainings across the various regions of Ghana which are helping Pastors and Church leaders to be able to meaningfully engage with their followers or disciples in order to equip them to effectively represent Christ wherever they find themselves.

Through these efforts hundreds of disciples have been helped and through them many more people have left darkness and are in the light of Christ Jesus. It is our prayer and hope that generations of Church planters and disciples and disciple-makers shall continue to be produced.

HOPE ASSURED OF A BRIGHTER FUTURE

As we walk through the communities across the northern part of the country, we have some hope and assurance that life through the little efforts we are making are pointing to the fact that the future can be better. The smiles on the faces of beautiful innocent children and keen interest of most of the youth to listen to wise counsel from our engagement with them gives me hope that the future of these lives and communities can only be better.

It is always a great joy seeing children who were at the verge of giving up now move through their education just because of a simple gift of a goat from U4A or they are participating in one of the empowering meetings organized through U4A. Indeed, hope is assured and we look forward to a brighter and better future through the little initiatives that are being implemented.
