Methodist Church Ghana’s Bishop Rev. Edusa-Eyison Calls on Christians to Support God’s Work

The Bishop of the Northern Accra Diocese (NAD) of the Methodist Church Ghana, Right Reverend Professor Joseph M.Y. Edusa-Eyison, has made a heartfelt appeal to Christians to continue supporting the work of God. He specifically urged members of the Methodist Church to consider donating some of their properties to the church for the sustenance of the word.

Delivering a sermon at the Immanuel Methodist Society at the Airport East Circuit of the Northern Accra Diocese, the Rt. Rev. Edusa-Eyison emphasized that such acts of kindness would be remembered years after they depart from earth. His words came as he prepares to bow out of office in September this year, marking the end of his 6-year service as Bishop of the Northern Accra Diocese.

The Bishop also used the occasion to lay the foundation stone for an estimated GH¢18.5 million multi-purpose chapel for the Immanuel Methodist Society. The Immanuel Methodist Society was carved out of the Calvary Methodist Church at Adabraka, Accra in 1994 and has since worshipped in various locations before moving to its present abode in the Regimanuel Gray Estate, off the Spintex road.

In his sermon, Rt. Rev. Edusa-Eyison urged the congregation to continually carry out evangelism and discipleship activities to win more souls for Christ, with special attention to the development of the youth who are the future of the Church.

He expressed his gratitude to the Airport East Circuit for its support and cooperation during his administration and prayed that the circuit would display even more dedication to the incoming Bishop and Lay Chairman for the good of the Diocese.

The Superintendent Minister of the Airport East Circuit, Very Rev. Dr Jacob W. French, commended Rt. Rev. Edusa-Eyison for his leadership as the Diocese’s first Bishop and for successfully ensuring that it strived towards being a model for all others.

The Chairman of the Building Committee of Immanuel Methodist Society, Kwesi Abbey Sam, revealed that about 55% of work on the first phase of the project had been completed since its launch in July 2023. The construction of the 1,500-seater complex has been divided into two phases and is expected to be completed in July 2025 at a tender cost of GH¢18.5 million with the first phase estimated at GH¢6,739,000.00.

The project features an underground basement with parking for 30 cars, Church Hall, choir vestry, ministry, infirmary, superintendent minister’s office, sound control/media room, committee rooms, administration office, stewards office, choir and singing band practice rooms among others.

As Rt. Rev. Edusa-Eyison prepares to exit his office, he has left a legacy that would be remembered for years to come. His call to Christians to support God’s work is a testament  that our actions have consequences that extend beyond our own lifetimes.

We can only hope that his successor will build on his foundation and take the church to even greater heights.
