Akosombo Wesley Methodist Church Honours VRA Chief Executive

The Akosombo Wesley Methodist Church has honoured the Chief Executive (CE) of the Volta River Authority (VRA) Ing. Isaac Kirk Koffi for his role in the growth of the church over the last 50 years.

The church began on August 12, 1964 as a result of the influx of immigrants to the Akosombo Township due to the construction of the Akosombo Hydro Electric Dam in 1961.

Presenting a plaque which read in part "in recognition of your faithful service to God in work, witness and worship" to the Chief Executive of the Authority at a thanksgiving church service to climax the Golden Jubilee Celebration of the Wesley Methodist Church in Akosombo, the Superintendent Minister of the Church, Very Rev. Amos Justice Pobee commended the Chief Executive for his meritorious service to the church on behalf of the entire membership.

Very Rev. Pobee noted the contribution of the Chief Executive has been outstanding and very distinguishable over the last few decades he has been with the church.
Receiving the plaque, Ing. Isaac Kirk Koffi said the role of the church in the development of the country cannot be over emphasized since the evidence is visible for all to attest to.

Ing. Kirk Koffi, himself an active member of the church for the last 30 years, recounted how he together with a few others contributed their quota to the development of the Wesley Methodist church in Akosombo.
“My personal service and joy as Harvest Committee Chairman for some years made me realize that the body of Christ has been faithful, giving and loving; all good traits of Christian character.”

He entreated the entire membership to continue to build the church spiritually, numerically, financially and socially in order to fulfil the great commission of Jesus Christ.

Ing. Kirk Koffi on behalf of the Authority made a donation of Five Thousand Ghana Cedis(GHS 5,000) as part of the Authority’s contribution towards the acquisition of seats for the new 1,000 seater church building under construction.
