Nkoranza SDA to construct mission house for pastors

Nkoranza (B/A), Aug. 18, GNA - About 25 branches of the Seventh Day Adventist Church in the Nkoranza District of Brong-Ahafo are paying special contributions between 500,000 and one million cedis towards the construction of a mission house for pastors at Nkoranza. Mr Daniel Antwi, treasurer of the Nkoranza South District branch of the Church told the Ghana News Agency that the project would be completed by the end of next year.

"Contributions are according to membership and strength of the 25 branch churches", he said.

Mr Lord Aduse-Poku, Public Relations Officer of the Nkoranza East District branch of the Church said 8000 burnt bricks had been procured for the project.

He said the Mid-West Ghana Conference of the Church would support the project with roofing sheets while the members would provide roofing boards. Mr Aduse-Poku urged members to pay their dues and contributions promptly to ensure the completion of the project on schedule.
