Thanksgiving Preacher Boy Service

Wow. I just returned from a great Thursday night “Preacher Boy” service in Takoradi. We have been having our young disciples preach once a month on Thursday nights and it is a great encouragement.

Since they do not celebrate American Thanksgiving in Ghana, I asked the guys to share a thought on Thanksgiving. Abednego spoke encouraging words form Psalm 26:7 on publishing with the voice of thanksgiving and telling of the wonderful works of God. Bright shared from his heart about the abundance of what I have in life is not as important than who has us, God.

I am thankful for the lives of these young men and others who are growing in their spiritual gifts.

DABOASE VILLAGE CHURCH

Our newest church in the farming community of Daboase is located about a 45 minute drive from our home in Takoradi. After initially hearing our Grace Hour radio program we began to visit and minister to a small group of people there. They had never heard the grace message and have responded to the message that we bring. Most people in the community live very simple lives of farming of palm nuts, cassava, yams, and other local foods. They are very loving people and open to hear the Gospel. Mr. Owusu, one of our Bible College students from our Sekondi church has been going there for two days during the week, spending he night with the people and doing a church service on Tuesday nights. Yesterday I travelled with Pastor Henry & Abeku to meet all the people there. The response was great to the message of God's love constraining us and holding us, never letting us go (2 Cor. 5: 14 ). The usual group of 12 - 15 on the porch of the house where we meet continued to grow as we began the service. Nearly 35 adults with equally as many children listened to my open air preaching and it was a great time of fellowship. The core group of 15 - 20 adults will be joining us this Sunday in Takoradi for our joint church service where we gather all the churches together for fellowship. Please pray for these humble people and God's wisdom in leading them. Chuck

“ It is finished “ - John 19:30

Thank you for visiting the webpage of the Greater Grace Church of Takoradi and Sekondi. With 30 churches in Ghana and 20+ other African countries we are excited to bring message of the “Finished Work” to Takoradi and the Western Region.

If you choose to be apart of our church you will be joining the Body of Christ of Greater Grace World Outreach which has churches and Bible Colleges in 60+ countries worldwide.

We are so blessed to be part of the ministry of Greater Grace World Outreach and Maryland Bible College & Seminary.

We pray that you will be a part of the new ministry here in Takoradi, Sekondi, Shama, Daboase, and beyond. Please join us for the many church activities as God leads you. We believe strongly in evangelism, fellowship of the church together, visitation and “categorical doctrine” which is teaching the Bible in specifics that we can apply in our lives. The Bible is the only true source of freedom that we need today.
