National HUM Coordinator: A Leader Who Walks The Talk

National HUM Coordinator: A Leader Who Walks The Talk

Features
In a time when leadership is often defined by charisma and status, it is refreshing to witness leadership rooted in service, integrity, and unwavering commitment to a divine mandate. Such is the leadership journey of Apostle Emmanuel Agyei Kwafo, the National Coordinator of the Home and Urban Missions (HUM) of The Church of Pentecost, whose trailblazing efforts have redefined ministry to the marginalized since HUM’s inception in 2019.  A Call to Serve the Forgotten Born out of the Church’s broader vision to “Possess the Nations and Transform All,” the Home and Urban Missions was established as a spiritual and social response to the increasing neglect of vulnerable populations in Ghana’s inner cities and unreached communities. From street children to substance abusers, urban poor...
The Power Of The Lord’s Supper (Communion)

The Power Of The Lord’s Supper (Communion)

Features
A Personal Testimony: The Healing Power of Communion On May 4, 2025, I fell gravely ill, weak, vomiting, and battling severe diarrhea. I couldn’t keep anything down, not even water. Completely drained, attending church was impossible.  However, my wife went to the service and brought home the Communion elements. She prayed over them before giving them to me.  After partaking, my condition initially worsened—I vomited violently, leaving everyone deeply concerned. Family members urged me to seek medical attention, but I held onto faith, declaring, ‘I have just consumed the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. Let’s wait and see His power at work.’  Then, at about 3:30 AM, a miracle happened. Strength suddenly surged through my body! The sickness vanished, and I felt hun...
The Sacred Calling Of Womanhood

The Sacred Calling Of Womanhood

Features
INTRODUCTION In this article, I briefly espouse the essence of womanhood— not as a means to an end or a burdensome role—but rather as a total purpose, a sacred calling with earthly and eternal rewards. I love to use stories as anecdotes to convey my thoughts, so permit me to share this story. A few years into my marriage, I found myself exhausted after a long Saturday of cooking, cleaning, and caring for our home. My husband, deeply engrossed in preparing a sermon, looked up when I asked, “Honey, does all this kitchen work even matter for eternity?” He chuckled and gently reassured me of the sacredness of every role I undertake as a woman. Though I knew this truth, I needed that reminder, especially in a world that often elevates work outside the home over a woman’s work at home. Som...
The COP Whitepaper: A Charting Course For Kingdom Advancement And Ministerial Fulfillment

The COP Whitepaper: A Charting Course For Kingdom Advancement And Ministerial Fulfillment

Features
The Church, as both organism and organogram, seeks to balance spiritual vitality with structural integrity, focusing on creating a dynamic, adaptive, and effective church that honors God and serves His people. The Church exists as an organogram, serving as a structured institution with defined roles, leadership, systems, and governance. On the other hand, the "organism" emphasises the Church as a living, spiritual body, with Christ as its head. The life of the Church flows from the Holy Spirit, who empowers, guides, and nurtures us. In summary, the organism gives it vitality, while the organogram gives it form and direction. In balancing spirituality with administrative framework, The Church of Pentecost places much premium on what is referred to as "The COP Whitepaper." The term "Wh...
Ministerial Transfers In The Church Of Pentecost

Ministerial Transfers In The Church Of Pentecost

Features
One of the unique and spiritually significant practices in The Church of Pentecost is the periodic transfer of ministers from one station to another. From its inception, The Church of Pentecost has understood ministry as a mission-driven calling, not confined to a single location or context. The Church’s early missionaries, like Pastor James McKeown (the founder), did not settle in comfort but responded to the Holy Spirit’s leading—planting churches, discipling new believers, and establishing strong foundations across regions. This legacy continues today. Every minister in The Church of Pentecost is not just called to preach but is appointed and assigned to serve in various parts of the body wherever they are sent. Transfers are spiritually discerned, prayerfully considered, and s...

The White Paper

The White Paper

Features
Per a definition I chanced upon, a “White Paper” is an authoritative report detailing an issue, position, problem, solution, or even a commercial product or service. The term originated in the 1920s as a position paper published by a UK government department. Therefore, it is a document issued by organisations on matters pertaining to policy directions and decisions on some issues of concern. According to surveys in Europe and the United States, and color psychology, white is often associated with perfection and good. It is unsurprising because the Bible, through which most of the ethos of human civilizations evolved, connotes White for good, purity, innocence, honesty, righteousness, and spiritual cleanness. (Revelations 3:4). White papers are supposed to be good, carrying glad tidings in...
