Apam (Central Region) 20 April
Christians have been urged to live above reproach, show love and to contribute to the development of their church, community and nation.
The Reverend Isaac Kweku Sam, Superintendent Minister of the Apam Circuit of the Methodist Church at the opening of the four-day annual camp meeting of the 15 societies under the circuit at Apam, described the cross of Jesus as a symbol of sacrifice, which has the power to transform and correct the ills of society..
Theme: ”There is healing in the Cross of Jesus,” members were asked to honour their tax obligations since the church does not stand for their spiritual well being alone but is also interested in their social development.
Just as Jesus sacrificed his life to save mankind, his followers must be ”their brothers keeper”, Rev. Sam said. He led the congregation in prayers for the leaders of the country including politicians and traditional rulers.
About 100 members of the church were baptised while 30 were confirmed.
