The headquarters of the Church of Pentecost in Ghana has expressed its concern over the severe decline in tithes and offerings in one its branches in Accra.
In a leaked letter sighted by Znewsgh.com, the church urges the Downtown Ofaakor branch to do well to meet its annual target for offerings and tithes despite the economic global hardship.
According to the letter, the estimated target for the half of the year was GHC 3,188,529, however, the branch was able to raise GHC 2, 780,537 with a difference of GHC 407,992.
“We are aware of the global effect of the war in Ukraine and the hardship that the Covid-19 still imposes on our members. But the above notwithstanding, let us continue to work hard at achieving our annual budget as we also pray with you,” the letter signed by Chairman, Eric Nyamekye indicated.
Meanwhile, a few months ago, Znewsgh.com reported that a honest taxi driver who went viral on social media for returning GHC 8400 to a worried fishmonger who left the money in his car has been employed by the Church of Pentecost.
Kwesi Ackon started his new employment at the Headquarters of the church on Thursday, June 16, 2022. According to reports, the 36-year-old driver could not hide his joy over the job offer.
He thanked God and the leadership of the church, particularly the Chairman, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, for the opportunity to work at the head office of the church.
On the morning of Wednesday, May 11, 2022, Ghanaians woke up to a trending video of a taxi driver who made an entire household weep uncontrollably with his unexpected gesture.
As YEN.com.gh previously reported, the gentleman named Kwesi Ackon had returned an amount of GH¢8,400 that was mistakenly dropped by a market woman in his vehicle.
When the video went viral, most people were moved to the point of wanting to support the driver in every possible way.
