Patasi (Ash) June 24, GNA – Dr Kwabena
Agbedinu, President of the Men’s Ministry of the Trinity Baptist Church, has called
on parents to rise up to their natural responsibility as heads of the home.
He said quite recently we celebrated Father’s
Day and there is the need for fathers to rise up and change the course of
history through prayers and exemplary roles.
Dr Agbedinu said this in an interview with the
Ghana News Agency during a special church service held to climax this year’s
Men’s Ministry week celebration of the Trinity Baptist Church.
“As parents, we need to change the course of
history of our dear nation through effective and fervent prayers,” he said.
Dr Agbedinu, who is also a Surgeon at the
Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) in Kumasi ,said if religious parents
prayed and led upright lives at home, church, work place and society, they
would impact positively on the lives of the entire nation and rid it of
corruption, economic hardship and other social concerns currently plaguing the
nation.
The annual event was held under the theme,
“The Role of Men in Beholding the Times”.
To this end, he said, a special prayer
festival dubbed, “Men on Their Knees,” would be organized by his ministry in
July 2018, to rekindle the spirit of prayer in men.
“The cankers of corruption, economic hardship
and other social defects currently confronting the nation could only be fought
and won through prayers and men should lead the way”, he added.
