THE AKROPONG DISTRICT TODAY
Since then, this age-old large District became a single congregational District. And so those of you who were familiar with the Akropong Presbyterian Church knew that whenever one talked about Akropong District, one was referring to the Christ Presbyterian Church. We know that, God moves in mysterious ways and so there are several things He does that one can never explain. With the upsurge of ‘Operation 2-1-2’ by the then ELTC of the PCG, two more satellite churches were opened in the North-Eastern and the South- Western parts of the town.

These two satellite Churches, which were later inaugurated and christened, as Grace and Peace respectively nine years ago, have become forces to reckon with. Grace is currently under the pastoral care of the Rev. Raymond Tieku Baah Abekah with Messers Edward Sampson and Ebenezer Abboah-Offei as the Catechist and Snr. Presbyter respectively. The Session Clerk is Mr. L.A. Oware. Peace on the other hand has the Rev. Anokye Nkansah as the Pastor; Mad. Beatrice Yirenkyi is the Catechist, Mr. Paul Osafo-Affum as the Snr. Presbyter with Ms. Augusta Ankama as the Session Clerk.

At the Christ Church, Reverend Georgina O. Lartey and I are the Pastors with Col. H.L. Ofosuapea and Mr. C.B. Duedu as the Snr. Presbyter and Catechist respectively. Mrs. Joyce Vera Ofei is the Clerk.

The Akropong District is a complete representation of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana (PCG). The first letters of the names of the three congregations in the District, Peace, Christ and Grace also form the PCG that we all belong to. And so here, ‘That All May Be One’, which is the motto of the PCG is very paramount to us as a District.

The following are our District Officers:

Rev. G.O. Kwapong is the District Minister,
Mr. Joe Banson, the District Clerk
Mr. Lawrence Boadi, Director of Finance,
Rev. Anokye Nkansah, the Director for Ecumenical and Social Relations,
Rev. R.T.B. Abekah, Church Life and Nurture,
Mrs. Esther Joyce Acquah, Development and Social Services and
Mr. E. Abboah-Offei, Missions and Evangelism. We are so proud of them for the marvelous services they render to the District. If the District is moving, it is because these dedicated persons are working assiduously.

All the PCG recognized Groups are functioning quite well in all our three congregations. In addition to those ones, we also have a 71 year old group known as ‘Kristo Nsraafo’, who operate like the Singing Band. Infact, they used to be called, Singing Band number II. The late Reverends R.O. Danso and Otto Boateng started it.

In Akropong is the famous Grace Deliverance Team, known for her active involvement in healing, deliverance and revival services. They serve as good ambassadors for Akropong. Wherever they been, they have brought joy, comfort and hope to many homes. Of late their activities have taken them beyond the shores of Ghana, especially to South Africa, United Kingdom and the United State of America.
