They'll Do Th~ Preaching! "'rT,,Tl"\T,T'T T"'T"\r"IT"'lfT"'ltT~r r\.l...,l\.1\U liLL.LJ\.JLi'iLH .l .J We are endebted to Bro. John Kesse and Bro. Samuel Obeng of Kumasi, Ghana, and to Bro. Ed Mosby our American missionary in Accra, Ghana for coordinating the information in this directory. It is suggested that all W.B.S. teachers notify their students of the information concerning the church nearest them, so they can go to the brethren for further instruc­ tion and baptism. It is not logical to expect the local preachers to contact the thousands of students, but the people can go to the brethren all over Ghana. The preachers in Ghana who were contacted were in accord with this plan and will give full cooperation. TIMES OF SERVICES: Most congregations in Ghana meet at 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on Sunday. Other meeting times, if known, are listed under each congregation. -- Di rectory correct as possible, October 1980. INDEX INDEX, cont.

But they only stop in Anyinam for two or three years, and then go on ’to the wilderness' (marginal comment by a missionary 'he means the coast') 'to join their fellows; so they are lost to the community. Other Christians are Kwahus. There are only two Anyinam natives in the community. 2 Anyinam people are catechumen, two ex-slaves also, and some children. Of his 8 pupils in the community school, 3 had graduated to the Kibi school. Kwabeng - most of the children of the Christians are not baptised because the mothers are still heathen and will not allow it. Nevertheless there are 15-l7 scholars in Khabeng. He is well contented with the people in Asunafo. They work well together. 12-24 children in the community school. Both in Tumfa and Akropong there were exclusions for adultery.

Any errors are purely the responsibility of the authors. Not all economic values presented in this study are captured by market mechanisms or translated to financial streams; the values of ecosystem services calculated in this study should therefore not be interpreted as financial values. Economic values represent wellbeing of stakeholders and do not represent the financial return of an investment case. The study should not be used as the basis for investments or related actions and activities without obtaining specific professional advice.
