The New Tafo Seventh Day Adventist Church has visited Tinka Island, a place noted for narcotics use and trade in Kumasi, to have a Church service with the inhabitants.
Complimenting their visit was the donation of food, dresses and shoes among others to the inhabitants of Tinka, who are mainly youth.
Speaking to the media, Pastor Baffour Okyere Siabour, the head pastor for New Tafo SDA explained that every year they go to those who are facing trials and tribulation and pray for them.
This year, according to him, they decided to pay a visit to Tinka and engage those who have been caught in the web of drug addiction.
“This year, we decided to come to our brothers and sisters at Tinka, who have been affected by narcotic drugs and share the word of God with them”.
Speaking to one of the beneficiaries on condition of anonymity, he expressed appreciation to the New Tafo SDA Church, adding that when someone wants to share the word of God with an afflicted person who is somewhat hungry, food is the first item that should be offered.
He urged inhabitants of the narcotic enclave to discard drugs and give their lives to Christ.
