Vice President of Ghana and flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has pledged to fund to its completion the Church building project of Korkordzor St. Jude Catholic Church at New Weija in the Archdiocese of Accra.

The Vice President made the promise when he visited the faithful of the Catholic Community on Sunday, July 7 upon request by the Priest in charge, Very Rev. Fr. Andrew Campbell, SVD.

Dr. Bawumia noted that he understood the invitation extended to him by the faithful saying, “I understand why Fr. Campbell asked me to come. I have seen your Church building. You have worked to a point but you have not finished. Leave the rest to me.”

He also promised to ensure the completion of an abandoned 6-unit classroom block which happens to be one of the St. Jude Basic School facilities. ” First thing tomorrow, I will place a call to Getfund,” the Vice President added.

He added that the road leading to the community needed a facelift and he will do all in his power to ensure it is fixed.

The Vice President who did not only come to make promises, together with his team made a cash donation that completely caters for a spinal surgery procedure of a parishioner estimated at about Sixty thousand cedis.

Letter to the Philippians 3,3-8a.

Brothers and sisters: We are the circumcision, we... who worship through the Spirit of God, who boast in Christ Jesus and do not put our confidence in flesh,
although I myself have grounds for confidence even in the flesh.If anyone else thinks he can be confident in flesh, all the more can I.
Circumcised on the eighth day, of the race of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrew parentage, in observance of the law a Pharisee,
in zeal I persecuted the church, in righteousness based on the law I was blameless.
(But) whatever gains I had, these I have come to consider a loss because of Christ.
More than that, I even consider everything as a loss because of the supreme good of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.

Psalms 105(104),2-3.4-5.6-7.

Sing to him, sing his praise,
proclaim... all his wondrous deeds.
Glory in his holy name;
rejoice, O hearts that seek the LORD!

Look to the LORD in his strength;
seek to serve him constantly.
Recall the wondrous deeds that he has wrought,
his portents, and the judgments he has uttered.

You descendants of Abraham, his servants,
sons of Jacob, his chosen ones!
He, the LORD, is our God;
throughout the earth his judgments prevail.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 15,1-10.

Tax collectors and sinners were all drawing... near to listen to Jesus,
but the Pharisees and scribes began to complain, saying, "This man welcomes sinners and eats with them."
So to them he addressed this parable.
"What man among you having a hundred sheep and losing one of them would not leave the ninety-nine in the desert and go after the lost one until he finds it?
And when he does find it, he sets it on his shoulders with great joy
and, upon his arrival home, he calls together his friends and neighbors and says to them, 'Rejoice with me because I have found my lost sheep.'
I tell you, in just the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need of repentance."
Or what woman having ten coins and losing one would not light a lamp and sweep the house, searching carefully until she finds it?
And when she does find it, she calls together her friends and neighbors and says to them, 'Rejoice with me because I have found the coin that I lost.'
In just the same way, I tell you, there will be rejoicing among the angels of God over one sinner who repents."
