The Second National Week of Fasting and Praying by Assemblies of God churches throughout the country has ended. <\/strong><\/p>\n

It was a period of intense prayers for the well-being of the nation as well as the success of the Transformation Agenda of the church and its theme for the year:\u00a0 \u201cSend the Light,\u201d which focuses on aggressive evangelism, massive church planting and growth.<\/p>\n

At the headquarters of Assemblies of God, Ghana, in Accra, the Executive Presbytery Officers held a two-hour, intense prayer session with Probationers and Exhorters of the Greater Accra East Region of the church on Monday, 8th January 2024.
