Missions We have several activities that reach out to those who are seeking Jesus and his salvation in other countries. Ghana: We support a work in the Republic of Ghana in west Africa in the village of Assin, in the Fosu district. This is one of the most progressive and stable countries in west Africa. Even so its population has a personal annual income of only $1,700. The work in Ghana is being led by Ebenezer Korsah, a native Ghanian and assisted by Anthony Kiranchie under direction of the Princeton Church of Christ Elders. See some new pictures sent to us from Ghana. The Church at Stationview, Anthony Kiranchie & Ebenezer Korsah send “Greetings” to the elders and the saints at Princeton! New Additions To GOD’s Church: Our evangelism strategy is that on alternate Sundays, we close from church early so we can reach people in our communities and study with them. On Sunday 16th October, three (3) people were baptized at Stationview who were study-prospects at St. Andrews Senior High School where we have a campus church. These students have taken our Bible Studies seriously. Because of Stationview’s increased evangelistic activity, our outreach has become more effective, resulting in (5)five souls being baptized and added to the Church on 2oth November. Two souls were also baptized at Assin Brofoyeduru on Thursday 6th October 2011. They became our prospects after the gospel campaign of some months ago, and regular study and follow-up yielded results. Four of us from Stationview and Assin Fosu College of Education Campus) joined together in this campaign at Assin Ketukrom. The four of us taught from house to house and preached in the street every night, giving listeners Bible questions with answers printed to help them understand marking. With another 32 members from Ketukron who also participated in this campaign, we contacted 86 people. On Sunday at worship we had 10 visitors and at the end of it all, even though it was a hard ground for evangelism, 8 souls were baptized into Christ as a result of the hard work! To God be the Glory! Preaching Campaigns at Adjetey Camp: Ebenezer and Anthony traveled to ADJETEY CAMP and stayed with the church there for three days in October. Our mission was to have a meeting with the ministry leaders to discuss the coming Regional Bible Camp to be held at Assin Fosu and their responsibilities assigned them. This meeting was held on Saturday, and we worshiped with the church on Sunday experiencing very poor attendance because of heavy rain. On Monday we taught a class of ministry leaders and Bible teachers introducing the new lesson for the last quarter (October – December). We finished and left there in the evening around 5.00pm arriving home at 9.25pm because we found it difficult to get a car. Sometimes, our travels are difficult because we need to visit with people at their convenience, and also basic travel is sometimes a simple hardship, but Apostle Paul had his travel issues as well!Much more information can be found in the full report! See link above Church of Christ in Ghana for 50 years!: The Regional Lectureship Meeting marking Church of Christ at 50 was a great success. Whereas the National Launching in Accra earlier this year recorded the attendance of 831, the Regional Lectureship recorded an attendance of 587 including 32 Preachers, 6 Elders and 4 Deacons. This was a very wonderful Public statement of the strength of the Church in our Region!Personal: Ebenezer’s family has been blessed with God’s protection and glory. Patience is counting her days to deliver a baby boy in early February 2012 according to scan machine. Because of her situation, she sometimes find it difficult to take the children’s class on Sundays. Ebenezer (junior) my firstborn is starting Brema Asikuma Senior High come this Friday 4th November as a boarding student. Wilfred, fully recovered now from medical issues recently, has changed school because of distance problem and joins a school in our community closer to our home. Anthony’s family are also at peace. He is very useful and works hard in the ministry. Because he is ready to work for the Lord, he doesn’t complain about the hardships in the ministry but goes on doing his part. His son, Thoephilius, has started Newtown Senior High at Assin Juaso as a boarding student. Elizabeth has also been so busy in the deaf ministry as a sign language interpreter fully assisting the ministry. Elizabeth is plagued with an ulcer, but new medication has helped her manage her illness better. Peace and blessing greetings from Ebenezer and Anthony and families in Assin Fosu to the fellow Christians at PCC. We do ask for prayers to bless our families, our Christians in Ghana and our partnership with Princeton! Together, in His service,  Ebenezer Korsah
