The Apostolic Church–Ghana has climaxed its 90th Anniversary celebration with a grand District Service at the Osu branch, bringing together congregants, leaders and invited guests in a spirit-filled gathering marked by worship, thanksgiving and reflection.
The milestone, which began on September 11, 2025 and concluded on September 14, 2025 was celebrated under the overarching theme: “The God Who Answers by Fire,” drawn from 1st Kings 18.
The climax service, however, centered on the sermon topic – “This God Shall Be Our God Forever” from Psalm 48:14, delivered by the Osu District Pastor, Rev. Joseph Akorful.
Speaking in an interview after the service, Rev. Akorful explained that the message sought to remind members of the God of their fathers, the same God who established the Apostolic Church in 1935 and has sustained it for nine decades.
“Looking at what transpired on Mount Carmel between Elijah and the prophets of Baal, God revealed Himself as the true and living God. That same unchanging God, merciful and covenant-keeping, has guided our church to this point,” he said.
He emphasised that the anniversary was not only about looking back but also about reaffirming faith for the future.
“Our fathers trusted in this God and He proved faithful. Today, we testify that the same God is still with us, answering by fire. We call on both the congregation and the nation at large to remain steadfast in Him, because without God, the country cannot find proper direction,” he added.
The celebration featured moments of worship, prayer and thanksgiving, with members reflecting on the church’s contributions to spiritual growth as well as social interventions such as education and healthcare.
It also served as a rallying call for unity and evangelism, as the church pledged to continue being a beacon of hope in Ghanaian society.
Rev. Akorful noted that while the Osu District had completed its celebration, other districts across the country and in the Diaspora were also holding similar climax services within September and October.
“The 90th anniversary has been about acknowledging God’s goodness, and each district is joining in with thanksgiving for what He has done and continues to do,” he said.
As the church looks to the future, leaders and members alike reaffirmed their commitment to preserving the legacy of faith, service and transformation that has defined The Apostolic Church–Ghana over the past 90 years.
