It was an irresistible atmosphere of worship at the Cedar Mountain Chapel, Assemblies of God, Shiashie, last Sunday, as hundreds gathered for the return of August Worship.
Multiple award-winning gospel minister, Eric Jeshrun, made a powerful comeback with his highly anticipated annual worship experience after a four-year break.
The event, which was put on hold due to his extensive ministry work abroad, is known for drawing thousands into an atmosphere of praise and prayer.
Hosted by Eric Jeshrun himself, the night saw him lead worshippers to the throne of God, touching many lives with his healing and prophetic gift.
This year’s edition, held on Sunday, August 30, 2025, lived up to its promise of a more powerful and spirit-filled encounter.
The gathering was further charged with powerful ministrations from gospel heavyweights Pastor Isaiah Fosu-Kwakye, Petra Odubayo, Noble G and Team Eternity.
The surprise of the night was minister Joe Mettle, who mesmerized the gathering with a powerful performance.
In a significant addition to this year’s programme, a dedicated session was devoted to praying for Ghana. Believers interceded passionately for the nation.
The main worship night was preceded by the Much Fruit Conference, which ran from August 23 to August 29 at the Faith Gatherings Worldwide Church. The week-long conference was designed to prepare hearts for August Worship.
It hosted an international lineup of guest ministers including Pastor Dolapo Lawal (USA), Michael Oldfield (USA), Godswill Oyor (Nigeria), and Stephen Obeng Amoako (Ghana), and featured teachings, prayer, and impartation sessions aimed at equipping believers for impact.
With worship, prayer, and the word lined up over the week, August Worship and the Much Fruit Conference proved to be one of the biggest gospel gatherings on the Christian calendar this August.
Patrons expressed satisfaction and appreciation to the organisers for the successful return of August Worship.

President John Dramani Mahama will be joining African heads of state, business leaders, investors and innovators shaping Africa’s next chapter, at the inaugural Alamein Africa Forum scheduled to take place from 2nd to 4th October 2026 in the historic city of Alamein on Egypt’s Mediterranean coast.
The three-day Alamein Africa Forum is established as a permanent African Business Forum to convene biennially in Egypt.
It is to become the continent’s premier gathering where political power meets entrepreneurial prowess, bridging the established engines of African growth with the new sectors defining its future.
Co-organised by the Government of Egypt, African Export – Import Bank (Afreximbank), the African Union and AUDA-NEPAD, it is expected to bring together more than twenty (20) heads of state and government representatives alongside business leaders, bankers and development institutions.
Ghana’s President, who on 23rd September 2026 declared Ghana is open for business in New York after ringing the ceremonial closing bell at the Nasdaq Stock Market will be leading the Ghanaian delegation, to include the Minister for Trade, Agribusiness, and Industry, Elizabeth Ofosu – Adjare, to the forum.
Other members of the Ghanaian delegation are the Head and Presidential Advisor for Ghana’s 24-Hour Economy and Accelerated Export Development Programme, Hon. Augustus Goosie Tanoh, Ghana’s Special Envoy to the Alliance of Sahel States, Colonel Larry Gbevlo – Lartey alongside key Ghanaian private sector players.
Bringing together leaders in politics, business and policy from across the continent, the Alamein Africa Forum will provide a unique opportunity to shape Africa’s growth agenda by aligning policy and investment priorities, mobilising partnerships for implementation and strengthening financing and investment pathways.
The private sector must become an integral part of Agenda 2063, the African Union’s strategic fifty-year masterplan to transform the continent. The private sector is the core economic engine required to turn the African 2063 from an aspirational government roadmap into realized infrastructure, jobs, and value-added trade.
