By Emmanuel Nyatsikor

Klefe Kpodzi (V/R), Jan 1, GNA – The Reverend Richard Mawutor Buamah, Klefe District Pastor, Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana (EPCG), said the peaceful general election Ghana held showed the unity and resilience of the people. 

It was also a demonstration of God’s unwavering love for the country, he noted. 

Rev. Buamah was speaking at a 31st December crossover night service organised by the EPCG, Salem congregation at Klefe Kpodzi in the Ho Municipality of the Volta Region. 

It was on the theme: “My year of divine upliftment and task for God’s creation.” 

He said though the peaceful nature of the elections called for celebration, it also placed the responsibility on all Ghanaians to deepen their commitment to building a prosperous, God-fearing and harmonious society.  

“Christians should deeply reflect on their responsibilities as stewards of God to build a just society,” he said. 

Rev. Buamah said God called Christians to be faithful stewards of His creation, which included the environment and people around them.  

He urged them to use their talents and resources to uplift others, build strong relationships and contribute meaningfully to the growth of God’s kingdom and Ghana in particular.  

He called on Christians to demonstrate compassion, justice and love to those in need in the New Year, adding; “Let us as reflect the love of Christ through acts of kindness and generosity.” 

“Stewardship is an act of worship and expression of gratitude for God’s blessings so let us commit ourselves to sustainable living and environmental conservation.” 

Rev. Buamah said divine upliftment signified God’s intervention, raising them above challenges, uncertainties and limitations.   

“As we journey through 2025, let us walk in faith remembering that God’s blessings equipped us for every good work and also whatever challenges we may face we are assured of His hand upon us as individuals and nation.” 

The praises and worship team led the  congregation to give thanks to God, while traditional drumming and dancing team (borborbor) also performed to usher in the new year.
