President John Mahama joined congregants of the Assemblies of God Church at Mpraeso in the Eastern Region for a spirit-filled Easter Sunday service, as Christians across the country marked the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Accompanied by Chief of Staff Julius Debrah and Eastern Regional Minister Mrs. Rita Akosua Adjei Awatey, President Mahama worshipped alongside hundreds of believers in a heartfelt celebration of faith, gratitude, and hope.
In his address, President Mahama expressed profound thanks to God for the gift of life and the peaceful outcome of the recent elections.
He noted that his presence at the church was in fulfilment of a promise made to God—to return in thanksgiving for a victorious and incident-free electoral process.
“Today is a day of thanksgiving,” the President said. “It is only right that I return to say thank you to the Lord for His grace and mercies.”
The Easter visit, which underscored the central role of faith in President Mahama’s public and personal life, drew admiration from congregants and church leadership alike.
Rev. Joseph Baidoo, Eastern Region “C” Superintendent of the Assemblies of God Church, expressed appreciation for the President’s gesture, describing it as an inspiration to the congregation.
He further pledged the church’s continued cooperation and support for national development efforts.
“We are grateful for your presence, Mr. President,” Rev. Baidoo said. “We assure you of our prayers, partnership, and readiness to contribute meaningfully to the nation’s progress.”
