Teshie Peniel Presby Church marks Silver Jubilee

The District Minister of the Teshie Peniel Presbyterian Church, Rev. Victor Okoe Abbey, has exhorted the various branches of the church not to concentrate on building only their various congregations but also unite to build the Presbyterian Church in the country.

Rev. Abbey said this at the Silver Jubilee service of the Teshie Peniel Presbyterian Church at Teshie Salem.  

 “We need to build this church which has been handed over to us, so that at the end of our tenure of leadership, we will be able to hand over a church that is stronger and healthier to the next generation,” Rev Abbey said.

Addressing the congregation, the Volta Regional Minister, Mr Joseph Nii Laryea Afotey-Agbo, said the Presbyterian Church had impacted on the lives of the people in the Teshie community and its environs.

Mr Afotey-Agbo, who is a member of the congregation, indicated that the church had helped to maintain the spirituality and values of the people, maintaining that it  had maintained its core values.

The minister, who is also the Member of Parliament (MP) for Kpone Katamanso, thanked the authorities who had seen to the progress of the congregation since its inception and called on all  stakeholders to continue spearheading the aspirations and ambitions of the church. 

As part of his appreciation to the church, Mr Afotey-Agbo donated GH¢2,000 to help in running its affairs.
