This year’s church leadership conference was held from Thursday 26th January to Tuesday 31st January 2017. Church leaders including pastors and church elders from the various branches throughout the country were part of the retreat which was held at the headquarters at Nungua Adogonno. In his address to the leaders, the presiding Bishop and founder, Bishop Noble Francis Afotey Odai encouraged the church leaders that church planting was war and involved a lot of work but they will be able to prevail by keeping their focus on the Lord and through hard work.
A member of the church at headquarters, Chairman Eric Afotey Odai donated a Toyota Tundra 4X4 vehicle to the General Overseer of the church, Bishop Francis Afotey Odai to aid him in his mission work. This was after he had noticed that the Bishop traveled in saloon cars three times daily every week for missions and realized it was not very safe. He therefore decided to buy him a safer and more durable vehicle that will endure the bad roads that the Bishop travels for missions.
