Today Fred and I got up early for church at Pastor Turkson’s church. The English service starts at 7 o’clock, so Pastor told us to arrive about 7:30 A.M. He would be there before 7 but we didn’t need to be. When we got there at 7:30 ours was the only car in the parking lot and only about 10 people were there. Over the next 1 and ½ hours about 200 more people arrived. When we left about 10:30 many more people were arriving for the Twi Service.
The girl usher had everyone sit up at the front of the church with each row filled before a new row could start. Because we were early we didn’t know this and had sat down about 6 pews back. One man in front of us was all by himself in the row and she made him get up and move 1 row closer. But she didn’t bother us, I guess we looked like back pew peopleJ. The drum set at the front was microphoned and the singers were not so it made for an interesting song service, but the enthusiasm and swaying certainly made up for it.
The guest Pastor’s sermon and the following Sunday School class were terrific and we enjoyed hearing the Ghanaians discussing the Holy Spirit.
