Report

Evangelist Dag-Heward Mills and his crusade team were given a rousing welcome as they stopped over at Navrongo Senior High School (NAVASCO) where he offered a civic reception. Heads and leaders of the various Christian denominations including some widow groups from the Navrongo Township. Evangelist Heward Mills, in a brief message, commended the people of Upper East for their warm reception and called for God’s blessing upon the land. Evang. Heward Mills was presented with a smock as a sign of appreciation for his visit. He encouraged the people to churn from their iniquities and turn to God for he is the giver of life and the savior of the world. Evang. Heward Mills and his entourage later paid a courtesy call on the regent of the Navrongo Traditional Area, Arthur Belinia Ada, at his palace to pay homage to him and his elders and also announced their presence in the area. Pe Belinia Ada described the teams’ visit as historic and called for more of such visit to help transform the people for the better. He prayed for a successful crusade and appealed for the people’s support and cooperation to enable them achieve their set objective. At the crusade ground attended by thousands of people, Evang. Heward Mills thanked the leadership of the Navrongo Traditional area and the district assembly for the support given them and called for God’s renewed blessing to them. In a sermon on the topic: “Who was Jesus”, Evang. Heward Mills encouraged the congregation to free from their sinful ways and consider Christ as the son of the living God. He said Christ in His infinite mercy came to die for sinners and not the righteous, signifying that Christ has the plight of sinners at heart and would love to see sinners moved from iniquities. He stated that Christ is the bread of life and thus anyone who emulates his examples will have eternal life. During the healing session, many people were touched with proves of miracles, the cripple walked, whilst those with severe pains were relieved from their predicaments. Among those healed, was the wife of the Paga-pio, Madam Beatrice Amoah. In an interview with Radio Ghana, the Crusade Director, Peter Melomey, said he was impressed with the turn up, which according to him was one of the highest crowds he has witnessed since the campaign began. He said similar campaigns has taken place in almost all the regions across the country and stressed that responses from these campaigns had been always been positive. Mr. Melomey disclosed that the team has so far visited 52 countries worldwide and is prepared to tour more places to win souls for Christ. Touching on the free medical outreach, Mr. Melomey said the team based on the recent tours thought it wise to inculcate the exercise to cater for the less privileged who due to poverty and other reason could not have access and afford medical care at the health facilities. To him, the exercise which begins today will go a long way to improve and address the health needs of the poor and the disadvantaged in the area and the region as well.
