FREETOWN CHURCH BUILDING FOUNDATION STONE LAID

FREETOWN CHURCH BUILDING FOUNDATION STONE LAID.

Apostle Nicholas Appia-Missah has on the Friday 21^st of August, 2015 conducted a ceremony to lay the foundation stone of the Freetown Church building in the Konongo District.

Apostle Nicholas Appia-Missah during the occasion said, there seem to be no bigger place to hold prayer meetings and retreats in the area and that is why it has become more important to give some level of attention to the building project.

The three day prayer which ended with the foundation stone ceremony was under the theme, “The glorious Church” taken from Ephessians5:22-28, Apostle indicated how Christ is preparing His bride which is His church. “At Christ second coming, His Church would be without spot or wrinkle”. He said the kind of preparation Christ is taking His Church through has its type in the Old Testament. He quoted from Esther 2:5-18 and showed how customarily, the bride undergoes beauty therapy for several months before she appeared before the king. Apostle Nicholas intimated that Esther who was not a native of Shushan kingdom under the reign of King Ahasuerus was chosen above all her peers. “What gives me greater joy is that we were gentiles like Esther, yet Christ has chosen us as well for His kingdom” He said.

 Apostle charged all Christians to live worthy of their calling by allowing the word of God to dwell in them richly by consistent study and practice.

According to Pastor Timothy Affum Adipah; the district pastor of Konongo District, the construction of the church building started in the year 2013 just after the creation of the Konongo Area. Work on the auditorium is about thirty-five percent completed.

The church building when completed would have a seating capacity of 3000 people.

Other speakers of the programme included Pastors Timothy Affum Adipah, Paul Asante, Joseph Aubin and Elder Sampson Yeboah who is the Area Deacon.

Apostle Nicholas Appiah-Missa laid the foundation stone to end the programme.
