An Executive Council member of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Emmanuel Agyei Kwafo, has urged Christians to move beyond the confines of church buildings and share the love of Christ with a world in desperate need of redemption.
Addressing this year’s November Heads’ Prayer Meeting at the Pentecost Convention Centre, Gomoa Fetteh, on the theme: “Sharing the Love of Christ with a Dying World: Members Serving Beyond the Church Walls,” Apostle Kwafo emphasised that the Church’s mandate remains to transform society through the preaching of the gospel under the influence of the Holy Spirit.
Apostle Kwafo, who also serves as Ho Area Head, explained that the Church’s 2026 theme presents three critical perspectives: the Church continues to pursue the vision of possessing nations; God will open new grounds for conquest; and this will be achieved through the same gospel proclaimed in the power of the Holy Spirit.
“The call to transform the world is more urgent now than when Jesus first proclaimed it,” he said, adding, “We live in a more corrupt and immoral world, yet the gospel still has the power to deliver and transform lives.”
He stressed that transformation cannot occur where the gospel is not proclaimed, adding that both clergy and laity must be prepared to sacrifice for its spread, saying, “For the world to be transformed, we need young men and women willing to lay down their lives for the gospel.”
Apostle Kwafo entreated leaders to model evangelism, noting that when leaders actively engage in soul-winning, members are inspired to do likewise. He further called on the Church to move beyond charity into intentional engagement with society through advocacy, restoring human dignity, and addressing social issues.
Identifying the gospel, the Holy Spirit, and the Church as key agents of transformation, he outlined expected outcomes such as reconciliation with God, moral renewal, social justice, economic empowerment, and holistic human flourishing.
To achieve this, Apostle Kwafo recommended that the Church establish a Mission Task Force, launch “Beyond the Walls” community projects, train marketplace ministers, set up social justice committees, and create sustainability initiatives.
He concluded: “If the Church unleashes its members to serve beyond its walls, the world will once again witness the transforming power of the gospel at work.”
