Kasoa Methodist fellowship gets new officers

Five new officers of the Methodist Girls Fellowship of the Bethel Methodist at Kasoa in the Central Region have been inducted.

They are: Sisters Lilian Juliana Arthur, Connexional Caretaker; Cecilia Arhin, President; Gifty Aba Pratt, Secretary; Esther Afrakoma, Treasurer and Lily Lartey, an executive member.

Instruments of office, including the Bible and the Methodist Church Hymnal were presented to guide them in their day-to-day activities as they steer the affairs of the fellowship.

The Bishop of the Winneba Diocese of the Methodist Church, Rt Rev. Dr John Kweku Buabeng Odoom, who performed the induction, congratulated the officers on their assumption of office.

In his sermon, he said God had called them to help turn the destiny of the young girls in the church around.

He said it was by the grace of God they were called and not because of how beautiful, knowledgeable or competent they were.

Rt Rev. Odoom reminded the members of the task in handling girls, adding that they should not underrate them since some of the girls knew things they the leaders  did not know.

“Don’t assume they don’t know anything. I can assure you that they know more than you know,” he said.

He asked the officers to be patient, encourage the young ones, preserve and have courage as they went about their work.
