The National Coordinator for the Home and Urban Missions (HUM) of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Emmanuel Agyei Kwafo, has made a passionate call to believers to take full ownership of the Church’s flagship agenda, Vision 2028, by committing to the sacrifices necessary for its fulfillment.
He made the appeal during the opening session of the maiden Home Missions Conference, underway at the Pentecost Convention Centre, Gomoa Fetteh, under the theme: ‘Paying Your Price in the Vision 2028 Agenda.’
Apostle Kwafo noted that the realisation of Vision 2028, which aligns with the Church’s broader ‘Possessing the Nations’ agenda, demands intentional sacrifice and personal responsibility from every member.
Quoting from Ecclesiastes 3:1–23, Acts 13:36, and Ephesians 3:10, he underscored the urgency of the moment, saying, ‘There is a time for everything, and we must act with urgency to accomplish God’s purpose for our generation. Vision 2028 has a lifespan, and we must not mark time while the opportunity passes.’
He outlined four key pillars of the theme: ‘The Charge’ – A divine call to action; ‘The Assignment’ – The specific work entrusted to each believer; ‘The Risk’ – The cost and sacrifices required; and ‘The Reward’ – The blessings and eternal impact that follow.
Apostle Kwafo stressed that Vision 2028 is both a corporate and personal mandate. Corporately, the Church is called to actively engage in societal transformation through its ministries. Individually, every believer is expected to be an agent of change, embodying the vision in daily life and ministry, he explained.
‘Every believer must own this vision and be willing to lose something for its success—whether time, comfort, resources, or personal ambitions. Without personal investment, the vision cannot be realised,’ he stated.
Referencing Acts 13:36, he reminded participants that, like David, each person is born to fulfill God’s purpose in their generation.
‘We will not live forever, but we must not leave this earth without fulfilling the divine mandate assigned to us. For this generation, it is Vision 2028,’ he stressed.
He further emphasised that Vision 2028 is not a human invention but a divine agenda established from the foundation of the world. Believers, he said, have been strategically positioned to contribute to its realization.
Apostle Kwafo urged Christians to minister intentionally across racial, ethnic, and social boundaries, sharing the transformative message of the Gospel with all people.
Drawing inspiration from 2 Samuel 23:8–12, he encouraged perseverance, even when it feels like few are committed.
‘At times, it may seem that only a few are pushing the vision forward, but we must press on. Whether in scarcity or abundance, with or without support, the vision must be accomplished,’ he said.
He assured the gathering that no labour in the Lord goes unrewarded, saying, ‘Whatever you sacrifice—your time, your resources, your comfort—God will repay with divine dividends. As 1 Corinthians 15:58 declares, our labour in the Lord is never in vain.’
Apostle Kwafo called on all present to embrace the urgency of the moment, act decisively, and play their part in ensuring that Vision 2028 is not only fulfilled but leaves a lasting legacy for generations to come.
