Accra, July 1, GNA - The National Association of Charismatic and Christian Churches (NACCC) on Tuesday congratulated the government and Ghanaians for the hard work and vital contributions they have made in nation building in the past 43 years when it attained Republican status.
It also asked Ghanaians to let the Republic Day and all subsequent anniversaries be days of re-dedication to selfless service to Ghana.
"Let Republic Day and all subsequent anniversaries be days of rededication to selfless service to mother Ghana, a renewed vigour, zest and zeal in the fight against poverty and deprivation and a re-focus on God as the source of every good and perfect gift."
A statement issued by the Public Affairs and Community Relations Directorate of the Association in Accra, noted that such anniversaries and landmark events should be important soul-searching ones as they marked "the ultimate, formal break with the last vestiges of Colonialism".
It said the fervent prayer and hope of the Association, as it pondered over the nation's aspirations and dreams, "is that Ghanaians would earnestly and sincerely acknowledge the ultimate sovereignty and dominion of the Lord over the affairs of men".
