Be agents of reconciliation - Christians told

Hohoe, Mar. 27, GNA - The Reverend Carl Kakotse, Hohoe District Pastor of the E.P. Church on Easter Sunday appealed to Christians and non-Christians alike in Tsito, Peki, Alavanyo and Nkonya to be agents of reconciliation.

"It therefore beholds on all and sundry to see themselves as agents of reconciliation in their various communities towards bringing hope to the hopeless.

Rev. Kakotse, who was delivering the homily at Hohoe-Kpoeta under the theme "New Life in Christ," said God was in Christ reconciling man to himself and therefore asked believers to reconcile with one another no matter the circumstances.

He reminded Christians that physical death was not the end of mankind so should individual depressed hearts.

Even nations that live under perpetual oppression can have hope of freedom and new life one day, he said.

Rev Kakotse said the "life we live today must therefore be that, which is preparing us for the new life in Christ which call for re-creation".
