Church of Pentecost renovates Kandin Health Centre
The Yendi Area of The Church of Pentecost, headed by Apostle William Kojo Edzorhoho, has renovated the Kandin Health Centre in the Tatale-Sanguli District of the Northern Region.
The renovation, which cost the Church a total of GH¢10,143, was part of the Church’s social responsibility to give back to society. The facility was in a dilapidated state following a rainstorm which ripped off the roofs and destroyed part of the structure six years ago.
