The Downtown Ofaakor Area of The Church of Pentecost, under the leadership of Apostle William Kojo Edzorhoho, held a foundation stone-laying ceremony on January 18, 2026, at the Downtown District Mission House premises, marking a significant milestone in the construction of a twin mission house to serve both the Downtown and Peace Town Districts.
In his welcome address, the Area Head described the project as a timely and strategic intervention, noting that the twin mission house would provide adequate accommodation for ministers serving the two growing Districts. He commended the ministers and leadership for their dedication and hard work in bringing the project to this stage.
Delivering the sermon, Pastor Daniel Nabaku, Minister of the Ebenezer Estate District, spoke on the topic “The Mission Dynamics.” Drawing from Genesis 28:18, he explained that Jacob anointed the stone with oil to mark it for recognition, stressing that mission houses are built with a divine purpose – to house God’s sent servants. He encouraged members to give the “keys of their hearts” to their ministers, just as keys are handed over to mission houses, adding that ministers are entrusted with God-given vision that must be nurtured over time. He urged the congregation to live harmoniously with their ministers to fully benefit from the purpose of the mission house.
Recounting the history of the project, the District Secretary noted that the old Downtown Mission House, after 25 years of use, had become structurally unsafe and required urgent replacement. Through prayer, consultation, and member involvement, leadership developed plans for a single storey building accommodating two mission houses. Following a sod-cutting ceremony in April 2024, construction commenced in May 2024 under strict supervision.
The Peace Town Mission House project began after the creation of the Peace Town District during the 48th Council Meeting in May 2025, with construction starting promptly to house the new District Minister.
The ceremony was attended by ministers and their wives, traditional leaders, opinion leaders, and members from both Districts. Profound gratitude was expressed to Apostle William Kojo Edzorhoho and Mrs Lucy Dede Edzorhoho, as well as all committees, officers, artisans, and members whose collective efforts continue to drive the project forward.
