Adom PCG, Bronx PCG, New York PCG and New Jersey PCG were in
attendance.

Rev. Dr. Gyang-Duah, preached the sermon on the Theme, the Lord
Forgives. In his inspiring sermon, he said the church would win more
souls for Christ if she desists from stereotyping some particular
people as sinners. And he added that those you reject as sinners would
go to heaven ahead of you. The minister paid tribute to the founding
members of the Emmanuel congregation and commended people who
distinguished themselves in rendering dedicated service to the church.
Mr. & Mrs. Kofi Yeboah chaired the fundraising ceremony. The occasion
was very solemn and colorful. The mission of the church is to bring
together all Ghanaians in the Washington Metro area and other people
who are yearning for spiritual fellowship in Christ.
