St. Peter Parish in Tema Newtown will hold a send-off Mass on the morning of Sunday, February 25, 2024, in honor their inaugural parish priest, Rev. Fr. Ernest Dugah, who is leaving to the United States in a transfer facilitated by Most. Rev. John Bonaventure Kwofie, CSSp.
Father Dugah is a Catholic Priest of the Archdiocese of Accra. Born in 1971, he was ordained into the Holy Priesthood on November 1, 2003, at the St. Joseph the Worker Parish in Tema Community 8, following his priestly formation at Sowutom and Pedu respectively.
After his ordination, Fr. Dugah was appointed assistant Priest at Good Shepherd Catholic Church, Tema Community 2, and was later appointed Priest in-charge at the St. Dominic Catholic Church, Taifa, and subsequently made a Parish Priest.
After his service at St. Dominic, the priest was tranfered to St. Kizito Catholic Church, Nima, and later to St. Peter Parish in Tema New Town, on October 1, 2020, working there from that period to February 2024.
