The serene city of Cape Coast, often referred to as the Academic City of Ghana, welcomed a wave of vibrant youth as the Pentecost Students and Associates (PENSA) held their first-ever national conference at the University of Cape Coast (UCC) campus.
Welcoming the over 2,500 exuberant youth from various tertiary institutions in the Western and Central regions on Thursday night, January 2, 2025, Apostle Dr Amos Jimmy Markin, Cape Coast Area Head and Chairman of the Central Regional Coordinating Committee of the church, expressed gratitude to God for the opportunity to bring together such a special group of individuals to the city.
Describing PENSA members as ‘God’s special people,’ he commended their commitment to faith and personal growth.
Speaking on the theme for the conference, Apostle Dr Markin underscored the enduring power of the word of God, referring to it as ‘the only standing truth in the world’s constitution.’
He reminded participants that Jesus is the ultimate Master and Teacher, urging them to dedicate their hearts and minds to God for a renewed and purposeful self.
‘Place your hands in the heart of Jesus,’ Apostle Dr Markin encouraged, emphasising the importance of absolute surrender and devotion. He called on the youth to give their utmost attention to God, assuring them that a life anchored in Christ is one of transformation and lasting impact.
The conference venue was filled with students, PENSA Alumni, including area youth leaders from the Central Region, pastors and their wives, and other key stakeholders.
The conference promises to be a time of spiritual renewal, impactful teachings, and vibrant worship, further solidifying PENSA’s mission of raising faithful and Christ-centered leaders for the future.
