Rev. Stephen Wengam Leads Assemblies of God Ghana in 2026 Apostolic Visitation at Cedar Mountain Chapel

The Assemblies of God, Ghana, has officially launched its 2026 Apostolic Visitation in the Greater Accra East Region, marking a significant spiritual milestone for the denomination. Held at the Cedar Mountain Chapel, the inaugural event gathered a diverse group of participants, including active pastors, their spouses, retirees, and widows. General Superintendent Rev. Stephen Wengam spearheaded the proceedings, setting a tone of spiritual renewal and organizational focus for the upcoming years as the church prepares for its next phase of growth and global engagement.

At the heart of the visitation was an intensive three-and-a-half-hour prayer session led by Rev. Wengam. The prayer themes were multifaceted, focusing on thanksgiving for past successes, collective repentance, and intercession for the nation's welfare. A primary focus of the intercessory segment was the upcoming Assemblies of God World Congress, as the church seeks divine guidance and strength for its international mission. The session served not only as a religious exercise but as a platform for unifying the church's leadership and membership under a shared vision of diligence and spiritual accountability.

Beyond spiritual exercises, the visitation emphasized the welfare of the church community and the sanctity of the family unit. Rev. Wengam and his wife, Lady Mrs. Monica Wengam, demonstrated the church's commitment to its vulnerable and elder members by presenting gifts to widows and retirees in attendance. In a poignant moment of the ceremony, the General Superintendent led ministers and their spouses in a renewal of marriage vows. This gesture was coupled with a charge to pastors to remain steadfast in their calling and to uphold the integrity of their domestic lives as a foundation for their public ministry.

Regional Superintendent Rev. Andrews Nelson Awintia expressed deep appreciation for the leadership's initiative, noting the visitation's role in revitalizing the local clergy and the broader congregation. As the Apostolic Visitation continues across other regions, it is expected to strengthen the internal structures of the Assemblies of God, Ghana, and reinforce its influence in the country's social and religious landscape. This initiative underscores the church's ongoing efforts to balance spiritual growth with social responsibility and administrative excellence as it prepares for its future global commitments.
