Assemblies of God unveils AG TV
Assemblies of God Church unveiled a television station christened AGTV on Sunday to help in the propagation of the Gospel as well as complement other Christian efforts.
The General Manager, Abraham Asare, said, AGTV is a high-end Christian television channel in Ghana focused on reaching everybody with the inspired Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Mr.Asare added that, “AGTV brings inspiration and revival to viewers, enabling many to give their lives to Christ, while helping others to renew their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.”
Addressing the gathering at the launch at the Headquarters of the church in Accra on Sunday, January 16,2022, the General Supertintedent of Assemblies of God, Rev.Prof.Paul Frimpong-Manso said, the desire and the vision to set up a television station had always been there, however, it was hastened when COVID-19 struck the world.
He said, the development led to closure of churches for a period of time, and this gave way to churches to reach out to members through other media.
Against this backdrop, they revisited the television dream and fast-tracked it and through the support of some benevolent individuals and the church, the dream has become a reality.
Rev.Prof.Fimpong-Manso said, with about 6,000 AG churches and almost 7,000 membership across the country and with presence in all regions and districts of Ghana, a television station for the church came in handy.
Touching on the cost incurred, he said through individuals, chruches and other organisations, they raised about GH₵700,000, adding that the total cost of equipment and gadgets, demarcations,installations, furniture, electrical works computers, registration, authorisation came to approximately, GH₵2 million.
He said that the church still had other expenditures to make and trusted that individuals and Assemblies of God churches would continue to help.
Some executives of the church and members took a toured the facility.

Fast-rising Ghanaian gospel musician, Rama Antwi, is set to take over the world as she releases her much-awaited single dubbed, ‘Wakae Me’. The song carries a thanksgiving message to show gratitude to God for life-changing miracles.
Speaking to The Spectator Agoro, she said the song is a testimony of her journey in the music industry, from her basic school days to TV3 Mentor and her current situation. According to her, no matter what people are going through, the Lord will remember them, adding that all they need is to pray and not relent.
She said there are times in one’s life that challenges make people forget that God is in charge. Rama said, “The situation makes it difficult for you to even believe God could change the situation for you. This song is to let you know that whatever is happening, a day will come for you to smile.”
“When the time comes, your miracle will happen to your amazement; those who used to mock you will be the same people to praise you,” Rama Antwi added.
According to her, she has seen that testimony in her life, adding that it is why she was offering thanksgiving through the song.
