The Assin Foso Area of The Church of Pentecost, has supported a former ghetto leader, Andrews Annor Miezah, popularly known as Asante, with a 275-litre chest freezer to help him establish a legitimate livelihood following his conversion to Christianity.
Asante’s transformation began during a Home and Urban Missions (HUM) outreach organised by the Nyamebekyere Assembly in the Mempeasem District of the Assin Foso Area, where he encountered the Gospel and surrendered his life to Jesus Christ. Following his conversion, he resolved to abandon his former lifestyle and also led his entire family to embrace the Christian faith.
Recognising the need to support his transition into a new way of life, Asante sought assistance to establish a sustainable source of income. In response, the Assin Foso Area provided him with a 275-litre Pearl chest freezer to enable him to start a business, support his family and become economically independent.
The freezer was officially presented to him by the Assin Foso Area Head, Apostle Eric Asare, and the Area Secretary, Pastor Enoch Amoah. They were accompanied by the Area Home and Urban Missions Coordinator, Pastor Wilson Boakye-Yiadom, and some presbytery members of the Nyamebekyere Assembly.
The intervention reflects The Church of Pentecost’s commitment to holistic ministry, which combines the proclamation of the Gospel with practical support to improve the lives of converts and vulnerable members of society.
It also highlights the importance of nurturing new converts beyond their initial encounter with Christ by providing opportunities that promote economic empowerment, self-reliance and social reintegration.
The initiative aligns with the biblical principle in James 2:15–16, which emphasises that genuine faith must be demonstrated through practical acts of compassion and concern for the needs of others.
Through its Home and Urban Missions, the Church continues to reach marginalised and vulnerable groups with the Gospel, disciple them in the Christian faith and support their transformation into responsible and productive members of society.
