The Church of Pentecost has honoured 15 of its officers in Sunyani for dedicated service, according to Asaase Radio. The recognition covers service periods of up to 51 years, the outlet reported on Monday, 12 October 2026.
The awards went to officers whose time with the church spans decades, with the longest recorded term reaching 51 years. Asaase Radio did not name the recipients or specify the venue and date of the ceremony in the material available.
Long-service recognition is a common practice in churches, where officers such as elders, deacons and other lay leaders often serve for many years without payment. Honouring them publicly serves both as gratitude and as an example for younger members.
The Sunyani event adds to a pattern of similar tributes by the Church of Pentecost, one of Ghana's largest Christian denominations, which frequently acknowledges the tenure of its local leaders across the country.
Details such as the full list of honourees, the individual years served by each officer and any remarks made at the ceremony were not included in the reporting summarised by Asaase Radio.
Further reporting is expected to provide the names of the officers and the exact dates and locations of the presentation.
