The Treasurer of the West Central African Division of the Seventh Day Adventist Church (WAD) based in Abidjan, Ps. Dr Dickson Sarfo Marfo, has urged Christians, especially members of the SDA Church, to set themselves apart and live holy lives.
Speaking at the 2026 Annual Camp Meeting Consecration Service organised by the New Life District of the SDA Church at Valley View University, Oyibi, Dr Marfo said devotion to God, holiness and consistent study of the Bible were the only ways believers can ‘stand the test of time.’
The four-day camp meeting was held under the theme: “Integrated for Mission: Grounded in the Bible and Focused on the Mission”.
Dr Marfo told the congregation: “Take time to spend time to read God’s word. That is the only way that you can stand the test of time.”
The WAD Treasurer cautioned that merely attending church without surrendering one’s life to the will of Christ does not guarantee a person as a true Christian who is waiting for the second coming of God.
Dr Marfo noted that these are times when true Christians must live godly lives that the world can emulate.
He challenged members to make a decisive turn after the camp meeting.
For his part, the President of the East Ghana Conference of the SDA Church, Ps. Dr Ernest Kwaku Ofosu, encouraged the congregation to allow the Word of God to correct them from negative behaviours.
Dr Ofosu also urged the congregation to be very serious and to work out their own salvation with diligence.
The New Life District Pastor, who also serves as the Eastern Regional Manager for SDA Schools, Pr. Asante Amaniampong Danso, advised members to remain faithful and steadfast as they await the second coming of God.
The occasion was graced by several dignitaries including the Registrar of Valley View University, Pr. Dr Samuel Amankwah; the Communication and Legal Affairs Director of the EGC, Pr. Patrick Nyarnor; and Former President of the MGC, Pr. E.D. Poakwah, among other guests.
As part of the occasion, 19 souls were baptised into the Seventh Day Adventist Church.
Ghana’s High Commissioner to Nigeria, Baba Sadiq, has held talks with the High Commissioner of Barbados to Ghana, H.E. Juliette Bynoe-Sutherland, at the Ghana High Commission in Abuja.
The meeting, according to the Ambassador, builds on the growing momentum in Ghana–Barbados relations, including the recent participation of Barbadian Prime Minister, Mia Amor Mottley, in high-level engagements in Ghana.
The two diplomats discussed strengthening cooperation in key areas including aviation and connectivity, tourism, trade and investment, education, culture, migration and security, reparations and multilateral affairs.
Ambassador Baba Sadiq noted that Ghana and Barbados share deep historical and cultural bonds, adding that the focus now is to translate that shared heritage into practical partnerships that connect people, unlock opportunities and strengthen Africa–Caribbean relations.
