GREAT COMMISSION CHURCH ELECTS EXECUTIVE COUNCIL .... (Page 28)

Story: Nana Konadu Agyeman, Bunso

A SEVEN-member Governing Council of the Great Commission Chapel International that would steer the affairs of the church for the next five years has been elected.
The executive council, with Rev. Joseph K. Antwi as Chairman, also had Rev Dr S. Asuming-Brempong as Vice-chairman, Missions; Rev. S. V. Ansah, Vice-chairman, Finance and Rev K. E. Hagan, Director of Ministries.
The others were Rev. R. K. Adanu, Director of Finance; Rev. G. D. K. Opeku, Director of Personnel; Rev. J. K. C. K. Tengey, Director of Church Life and Rev. G. K. Gbloe, Director of Evangelism.
The election coincided with the church’s four-day annual general meeting (AGM) at Bunso, which was attended by about 120 members, including presiding elders, reverend ministers and chairpersons of the local committees across the country to deliberate on the successes and failures of the church over the years and plan for the future.  
Preaching a sermon at the closing session, the Chairman of the Governing Council, Rev. Joseph K. Antwi, advised Christians to seek the welfare of others and show appreciation to the ministers’ efforts to promote their welfare.
This, he noted, would enable the members to achieve lasting successes in the pursuit of their aspirations and also overcome inherent challenges in life.
“In our individual capacity as Christians, we cannot overcome the challenges of life without the support and encouragement of our fellow human beings, whom we should see as our immediate greatest investment to rely on for support at all times,” he said.
Dwelling on Ecclesiastics 4:9-12, Rev. Antwi also urged Christians to exhibit self-discipline, integrity, hard work and sacrifice in the pursuit of their aspirations besides the grace that God had made available to mankind.
