President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is unwavering in his resolve to build a National Cathedral in Ghana.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will surely build the [National] Cathedral,\u201d President Akufo-Addo stressed.<\/p>\n

According to him, the project is dear to his heart and ensure that the facility is built to glorify God.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The president gave the assurance when he joined the family and friends of Dr. Joseph Siaw Agyepong at the latter\u2019s late father\u2019s Service of Thanksgiving on Sunday at the Pentecost International Worship Centre (PIWC), Graceland Teshie Nungua in Accra.<\/p>\n

While commiserating with Dr. Agyepong and his family for their loss during this difficult moment, the President encouraged him to take consolation in the fact that his late father gave birth to him to affect lives positively.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cIn fact, the name Dr. Agyepong has been lost on Ghanaians. Now Zoomlion has become his [Dr. Agyepong\u2019s] household name, all thanks to his entrepreneurial skills and his passion to help transform lives in the country,\u201d he praised Dr. Siaw Agyepong.<\/p>\n

According to President Akufo-Addo, his government will continue to support Dr. Siaw Agyepong and his JGC and any other private person who was ready to support Ghana\u2019s development efforts.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cMy administration will continue to create the enabling environment for private businesses to thrive so they can support the government in its development agenda,\u201d he reinforced.<\/p>\n

Dr. Siaw Agyepong, the President averred, has a lot to offer the country, hence his government will continue to support him.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cThough the economic hardships are having a toll on Ghanaians, I am very optimistic that things will get better, adding that \u201cthese challenges too will pass.\u201d<\/p>\n

He implored Ghanaians to always foster unity to bring about peace and development.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Early on, the Director of Pentecost Men\u2019s Ministry (PEMEM) and Executive Council Member of the Church of Pentecost, Reverend Vincent Anane Denteh, who gave thanksgiving service sermon, charged Christians and Ghanaians in general to carry the burdens of one another.<\/p>\n

\u201cCarrying someone\u2019s burden is not easy as it is laden with challenges but doing that fulfils the law of Christ,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Preaching on the theme: \u201cRaising Burden Bearers in Our Generation,\u201d the man of God explained burden as a \u201cworrying responsibility.\u201d<\/p>\n

He stressed that the nation, churches and families can progress if there were burden bearers.<\/p>\n

According to the man of God, every individual has a dual purpose: one, to worship God, and; two, to serve humanity.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cGod created us to serve him and serve humanity. The combination of this two is not easy at all, but we must do it since it is a glorious affair,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Rev. Anane Denteh pointed out that in times of troubles and hardships, there was the need for someone to bear the burden of the people.<\/p>\n

He therefore urged Christians to always build their joy on the strength of the Lord and not on what people will say.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For his part, Dr. Siaw Agyepong, on behalf of his family, used the opportunity to thank, first, God for His mercies and favour upon the Agyepong family.<\/p>\n

He also thanked, in particular, President Akufo-Addo whom he described as a \u201cvery good\u201d President and all those who have mourned with them.<\/p>\n
