Remembrance Day, formerly dubbed All Souls' Day Service, is an inter-faith service which grew out of the service held in memory of the late Chancellor of the University, Oyeeman Wereko Ampem II, in March, 2006. As the character of All Souls' Day Service was inter-faith, Muslim Prayers were incorporated into the service in the past years. These were offered by Imam Abubakari Baba, Imam of the Legon Central Mosque. The offertory taken at these Services has so far gone to support needy and bright students registered with the University Students Financial Aid Office. Since 2010, there has been a departure from previous years, with two days being set aside to remember departed members – one by the Muslim Community which takes place on the first Friday of November and the other on the first Sunday of November by the Christian Community. This is now the accepted format for the Memorial Services for departed members of the University community and now with a new name, Remembrance Day. Thus, Remembrance Day provides the opportunity for all members of the University Community to remember their colleagues who departed this world during the academic year, since members are unable to attend the funerals of all departed colleagues, given the academic schedule of the University. The Chaplaincy Board collaborates with the Public Affairs Directorate to plan and organise Remembrance Day for both Muslim and Christian members of the community. 3 2019 Remembrance Day ROLL OF DECEASED MEMBERS 2018/2019 ACADEMIC YEAR S ENIOR MEMBERS NAME DEPARTMENT/UNIT 1.

HARK, MY SOUL! ANGELIC SONGS KING OF GLORY KING OF PEACE ARE SWELLING, 1 King of glory, King of peace, I will love Thee; 1. Hark! hark, my soul! Angelic songs are swelling, and that love may never cease, O'er earth's green fields and ocean's wave-beat shore; I will move Thee. How sweet the truth those blessed strains are telling Thou hast granted my request, Of that new life when sin shall be no more! Thou hast heard me; Thou didst note my working breast, Chorus Thou hast spared me. Angels of Jesus, angels of light, Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night! 2 Wherefore with my utmost art I will sing Thee, 2. Onward we go; for still we hear them singing, and the cream of all my heart I will bring Thee. Come, weary souls, for Jesus bids you come; Though my sins against me cried, And through the dark, its echoes sweetly ringing, Thou didst clear me; The music of the Gospel leads us home. and alone, when they replied, Thou didst hear me. 3. Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing, The voice of Jesus sounds o'er land and sea; 3 Seven whole days, not one in seven, And laden souls, by thousands meekly stealing, I will praise Thee; Kind Shepherd, turn their weary steps to Thee. in my heart, though not in heaven, I can raise Thee. Small it is, in this poor sort 4. Rest comes at length; though life be long and dreary, to enroll Thee: e'en eternity's too short The day must dawn, and darksome night be past; to extol Thee. Faith's journeys end in welcome to the weary, And Heaven, the heart's true home, will come at last. CAPTAIN OF ISRAEL'S HOST, 5. Angels, sing on, your faithful watches keeping; AND GUIDE Sing us sweet fragments of the songs above, Till morning's joy shall end the night of weeping, 1 Captain of Israel's host, and Guide And life's long shadows break in cloudless love. Of all who seek the land above, Beneath Thy shadow we abide, The cloud of Thy protecting love; Our strength, Thy grace, our rule, Thy Word; Our end, the glory of the Lord. 7 2019 Remembrance Day 2. By Thine unerring Spirit led, I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR We shall not in the desert stray We shall not full direction need 1.

Paul Forjoe led a delegaon to visit the family to commiserate with them. MOBA was also well represented at the one-week celebraon at his residence at Abelenkpe, Accra. To crown it, MOBA organised a Special Remembrance Service in his honour at the Calvary Methodist Church in Adabraka, Accra. A host of 'Old Boys' thronged the grounds of the Christ Church Anglican Church at the University of Ghana, Legon on Saturday 24th April 2019 for the Burial Service and more importantly to pay their last respects to the man who had done so much for Mfantsipim and MOBA.

  • Ghanaian Methodist Spirituality in Relation with Neo- Pentecostalism
    Ghanaian Methodist Spirituality GHANAIAN METHODIST SPIRITUALITY IN RELATION WITH NEO- PENTECOSTALISM Doris E. Yalley Abstract: Contemporary Ghanaian Methodist spirituality exhibits varied religious tendencies. A cursory look at some activities which take place at the Church’s prayer centres reveals worship patterns of the historical Wesleyan Tradition, patterns of the Pentecostal and Neo-Charismatic. To understand how worship patterns promote har- monious religious environments for members of the Church, the study examined some of the practices which could have possibly informed such religious expressions within the Methodist Church Ghana (MCG). The findings revealed a religious disposition fashioned to re- flect the Church’s foundational heritage, tempered with ecumenical models integrated to address the Ghanaian cultural context. Keywords: Wesleyan Spirituality, Neo-Pentecostalism, Ghanaian Methodism Introduction A careful examination of the contemporary Ghanaian Methodist reli- gious scene reveals varied worship patterns.1 The phenomenon raises the question whether the contemporary liturgical praxis is a rebirth of the historical Wesleyan Tradition or a manifestation of the Pentecos- tal/Neo-Pentecostal waves blowing over the Ghanaian religious scene, or a ‘locally brewed’ spirituality emerging from Indigenous Ghanaian cultures. This paper argues that the Wesleyan Tradition practised by the founding Fathers can be described as ‘Pentecostal.’ Furthermore, against the view of some Ghanaian Methodists, including a former Director of the Meth- odist Prayer and Renewal Programme (MPRP), that the MCG has com- promised its Wesleyan identity, a three-fold aim is pursued: a) To evaluate the nature of Methodism in contemporary Ghana; b) To examine the vision and mission of the Wesleyan Methodist Missionary Society (WMMS); 1 The Church is one of the largest and oldest denomination in Ghana, birthed out of the early Christian missionary activities in the then Gold Coast in the year 1835.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Theses and Dissertations by an authorized administrator of Digital Commons @ ACU. ABSTRACT The Churches of Christ in Ghana commemorated 50 years of the Restoration Movement in Ghana in 2012. As part of the historical development of this community in Ghana, the number of individuals who have accessed higher education through the various institutions of higher learning in the country have increased significantly. This development also led to the emergence of campus churches to meet the spiritual needs of members of this faith-tradition as they pursue academic interests on the various university campuses. This development notwithstanding, almost no literature exists which provides a record of the historical evolution of these campus churches and the influence they have had on past and present members of the campus churches and also on the Churches of Christ in Ghana. This study documents the historical trajectory of campus churches affiliated with Churches of Christ located in three public universities in Ghana primarily through survey results and oral history interviews.
