5 church events that Christians will never miss
Ghana has come a long way when it comes to the country’s history with religion. However, for a nation widely dominated by Christians, it is obvious that churches are bound to be commonplace.
The above point means that most Christians worship at different denominations on the premise of various reasons.
Some choose churches because of the head pastor, others because of the church’s conduct of worship, while some may also have other varied reasons.
However, whichever church one may be attending, there are some events on the calendar that Christians in Ghana never miss.
With each church having a flagship programme on their annual calendar, they are able to get crowds from other churches to join in.
