Accra, May 20, GNA – The Moderator of the Global Evangelical Church, Rt. Rev. Dr. Setorwu Kwadzo Ofori, has cut the sod for the commencement of an ultra- modern chapel for the Global Evangelical church at New Achimota.
The chapel, when completed, would have a one thousand seater auditorium, a conference room, worship place for the children’s service, a baptistery, seven offices and a car park.
It is estimated to cost about GHC 2 million Ghana cedis and is expected to be completed in five years.
In a sermon on the theme: “Faithful Stewards Persist in Prayer,” the Moderator said prayer was an important key which believers could not afford to throw away but rather persistently engaged in it in their daily endeavours.
He encouraged members of the church to always pray for the will of God.
“Keep prayers simple, straight forward and it should be based on the word of God,” he said.

The parish pastor Rev Gilbert Kwasi Gbortsu was grateful to God for how far he had brought the congregation and expressed utmost gratitude to the Executives for coming to grace the occasion.
