A newly constructed ultra-modern manse of the Accra New Town Presbyterian Church has been dedicated to enable ministers of the gospel effectively run affairs of the church.
It was dedicated by the Moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, Rt Reverend Professor Joseph Obiri Yeboah Mante and assisted by the Chairperson of the Ga Presbytery, Rev. Dr Nana Opare Kwakye, the District Minister, Rev. M.G Anim-Tetey, among other ministers of the gospel.
A newly-constructed three-storey office complex located at the church premises for the district and a lorry park was also dedicated in addition to the manse.
The manse project commenced in December 2010, and consisted of eight bedrooms and auxiliary facilities, was financed by the members of the church, the district and individuals from home and abroad.
Delivering the sermon on the theme: “Baptism of the Lord, The Holy Spirit, The Witness”, Rt Rev. Prof. Mante admonished the church to have a renewed mind in establishing the kingdom’s agenda.
He urged the church to discard the old things and have a positive mindset for purposeful things.
“Let us have a new heart, spirit and mind and look forward onto God for 2022. I pray that there will be showers of blessings progressively”, he said.
Handing over the edifice to the church, Rt Rev. Prof. Mante asked the leadership of the church to maintain the edifice properly for the purpose of which it was built and dedicated.
The Chairperson of the Ga presbytery, Rev. Dr Kwakye who received the keys, then handed over to the district minister and pledged to utilise the facilities for the intended purposes.
The District Minister Rev Anim-Tetey commended the church and the leadership for their support and commitment towards the building of the manse.

About 120 golfers from clubs across Ghana participated in an 18-hole competition, dubbed ‘MTN 30th Anniversary CEO Invitational Golf Tournament’ held at the Achimota Golf Club on Saturday.
At the end of the hectic day, Frederick Semenu Duvor won the Men’s Group A event with 39 points, while Julienne Afi claimed the Ladies’ Group A title with the same score.
Yaw Mireku Jnr. won the Men’s Group B with an impressive 45 points, while Kous Louanges Mang took the Ladies’ Group B title with 38 points.
Kofi Mangesi won Men’s Group C with 40 points while Elorm R. Akuash Bonney claimed the Ladies’ version with 42 points.
In the Seniors Division, Jan Vogel emerged winner of the men’s category with 39 gross, while Helen Appah topped the ladies’ category with 44 gross.
Addressing participants, the company’s Board Chairman, Mr Ishmael Yamson, urged the company to approach its next phase with the same resilience, discipline and determination that have defined its success over the past three decades.
He drew a striking parallel between the game of golf and MTN Ghana’s three-decade journey, describing both as long games in which success depends less on one spectacular moment than on consistency, patience, judgment and the ability to recover from setbacks.
He said, golf had taught him a lesson that extended far beyond the fairways, thus, a round cannot be won on the first hole.
In golfing terms, he said, MTN Ghana had encountered its share of regulatory bunkers, competitive hazards and unexpected storms that had forced the company to pause, reassess and change its approach.
But those challenges, he suggested, were part of the journey rather than reasons to abandon it.
