My son, the one and only Andy Nii Akrashie (@ojblaqgh) has crossed over from time into eternity! We know who you became and where you are now. Therefore, we don’t sorrow as those who don’t have hope. He was a great soldier of God’s kingdom who denied himself to fight for many to come to Christ and be rooted in GOD!

"He was an inspiring servant who used his past experiences to bring others into Christ! He was a wise son who testified of GOD’s healing and salvation so that others may join and be grounded in this House @empowermentworshipcentre! He gave his all as he served in our prayer, Fixed Teens, Music and Discovery Teams. Congratulations son! You served the Lord with your all and in joy till the end!

My condolences to his family, everyone @empowermentworshipcentre and all who were blessed by him! Till we meet again son! I love you! We are proud of you!
