Organisers of Women in Worship have announced a crack lineup for the 7th edition dubbed the Rehoboth Experience.
This is a comeback of the programme following a year’s break.
The much anticipated all-female minstrels’ night of worship, will this year parade Nigeria’s finest Mercy Chinwo and Ada Ehi teaming up with their Ghanaian counterparts.
Ghana’s gospel heavyweights, Empress Gifty and Diana Hamilton with able support from an all-female Team Eternity Choir, Efe Grace, JOA, Raphifia, and Achiaa will lead the gathering to the throne of worship.
The atmosphere in the heart of Accra, Ghana, will be filled with electrifying musical praise and worship at the Oil Dome, Royal House Chapel International on Sunday, September 22, 2024 at exactly 4pm.
Speaking to the Spectator, the brain behind the event, Georgina Nettey, said the Seventh Edition of the event by Genet Services, promises to provide a bigger and better experience for all of its patrons, and as the organising body, “we would love to entreat patrons/ guests of the event to come with heart of gratitude and with an expectant heart to encounter God and receive his blessings.”
According to her the experience this year would be unparalleled considering measures put in place for the 7th edition.
She announced a partnership with Equity Health Insurance aimed at contributing to credible research into finding a cure for cervical cancer.
As a result she revealed that awareness creation, screening and other programmes designed to help in the fight against cervical cancer had been lined up ahead of the main event.
Consequently she called on Corporate Ghana to come on board to support their quest to save humanity.

Osanju is dead
Popular Ghanaian content creator, Elvis Frimpong, known in showbiz circles as Osanju has been reported dead.
According to sources, he was said to have died in the early hours on Monday, September 1, 2025 after a long battle with blood cancer (Leukemia)
His death has been a shock in the Ghanaian community especially coming shortly after his last post.
His demise comes five months after he had laid his mother, Amounu, also a tiktoker, to rest, having lost her in January.
Hours before his passing, he had posted a video on Sunday with friends watching the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, prompting many fans to initially dismiss the reports as a hoax.
Osanju’s death has been described as a huge loss by followers who admired his openness, resilience and positive outlook in the face of ill health.
However, Osanju had previously shared his battle with leukemia, a cancer of the blood, on his TikTok account, even eerily predicting his own demise on a couple of occasions.
