Speaking on behalf of the church, Mrs Kesewa Ayisi Ahwireng, said the church was committed to helping the needy and the vulnerable in society.

“We are people who give because Christ gave to the poor and needy”, she said.
She assured the home of the church’s support and constant visit to express love towards the less privileged in society.

For his part, the youth pastor, Mr Nana Kumi-Manu, commended the teachers and care takers of the home for helping to mould the children to grow and contribute to the development of the country.

He encouraged the children to be obedient and become responsible citizens in order to contribute to the growth of the nation.
