The Catholic Archdiocese of Accra has begun the new year with key pastoral and administrative changes, as Metropolitan Archbishop Most Rev. John Bonaventure Kwofie C.S.Sp assigns priests to strategic roles within the local Church.

The appointments, announced in a letter dated January 2 2026 and addressed to all priests of the Archdiocese, are to run for a five year term and are aimed at deepening service to the people of God through both governance and specialised pastoral care.

At the heart of the new assignments is the appointment of Rev. Fr. John Patrick Tindana as Chancellor and Archivist of the Archdiocese of Accra. In this capacity, Fr. Tindana will be responsible for the custody and administration of official ecclesiastical records and archives, a role critical to the orderly functioning, legal integrity and historical memory of the Archdiocese.

The Archbishop has also entrusted Rev. Fr. David Amissah Andoh with the ministry of chaplaincy at the Battor Catholic Hospital. His new role places him within the Church’s healing apostolate, where he will accompany patients, families and health professionals through prayer, pastoral presence and the celebration of the sacraments.

Second Letter to Timothy 2,8-15.

Beloved: Remember Jesus Christ, raised from... the dead, a descendant of David: such is my gospel,
for which I am suffering, even to the point of chains, like a criminal. But the word of God is not chained.
Therefore, I bear with everything for the sake of those who are chosen, so that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, together with eternal glory.
This saying is trustworthy: If we have died with him we shall also live with him;
if we persevere we shall also reign with him. But if we deny him he will deny us.
If we are unfaithful he remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself.
Remind people of these things and charge them before God to stop disputing about words. This serves no useful purpose since it harms those who listen.
Be eager to present yourself as acceptable to God, a workman who causes no disgrace, imparting the word of truth without deviation.

Psalms 25(24),4bc-5ab.8-9.10.14.

Your ways, O LORD, make known to me;
teach... me your paths,
guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my savior.

Good and upright is the LORD;
thus he shows sinners the way.
He guides the humble to justice,
he teaches the humble his way.

All the paths of the LORD are kindness and constancy
toward those who keep his covenant and his decrees.
The friendship of the LORD is with those who fear him,
and his covenant, for their instruction.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Mark 12,28-34.

One of the scribes came to Jesus and asked... him, "Which is the first of all the commandments?"
Jesus replied, "The first is this: 'Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone!
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.'
The second is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
The scribe said to him, "Well said, teacher. You are right in saying, 'He is One and there is no other than he.'
And 'to love him with all your heart, with all your understanding, with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself' is worth more than all burnt offerings and sacrifices."
And when Jesus saw that (he) answered with understanding, he said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." And no one dared to ask him any more questions.
