Accra, March 14, GNA 97 A clergyman has expressed regret that some Church leaders engaged in immorality which brought the names of their religious organizations into disrepute. Reverend Nicholas Azalekor, Head of the Nungua branch of the Global Evangelical Church, called on Christian leaders to be upright to protect th= e image and sanctity of the Church.
He was speaking at a day's seminar for executives of groups of the Accra Presbytery of the Global Evangelical Church, on the theme: 93The Rol= e of Ministries and Groups in the Mission of the Church", in Accra on Saturday. The groups were formed to facilitate the work of the Synod Committee o= f the Church and also to harness the manpower resources of members of the Church towards its growth and development.
Rev. Azalekor appealed to leaders of the groups to discharge their duties faithfully and impartially and be committed to God's work. He reminded them that they had a role to play in nation building and they educate their members on government policies and programmes. Rev. Azalekor cautioned drivers against reckless driving, drunk-driving, over loading and unnecessary overtaking over speeding and other traffic offences that resulted in lorry accidents. Rev. Michael Akiti, Assistant Clerk of Presbytery, called on Christian= s to abide by the teachings of Christ. He asked the youth to take their education seriously to enable them to acquire skills and knowledge needed for national development.
