The Diasporans Parishioners Association of the Sacred Heart Quasi Parish, Kukurantumi Akyem, has extended hope and compassion to sick, aged and vulnerable members of the parish through a home visitation outreach marked by prayer, generosity and Christian solidarity.

The visit took place on December 27 2025 as part of the Association’s Second Homecoming, held from December 26 to 28 under the theme The Samaritan Purse. During the outreach, members visited 22 parishioners in their homes, spending time in prayer and fellowship with those unable to participate fully in parish life due to illness or age.

The encounters were characterised by hymn singing, shared prayers and words of encouragement, creating moments of deep spiritual connection. The sick and elderly parishioners also shared their personal stories, testimonies and daily challenges in an atmosphere of trust and empathy.

As a practical expression of care, the Association presented each beneficiary with food items and cash donations. The gesture brought joy and consolation to the recipients, many of whom expressed heartfelt appreciation for the concern shown by their fellow parishioners living abroad.

The beneficiaries commended the Association for its generosity, describing the visit as a living example of Christian charity inspired by the Good Samaritan. They offered prayers for God’s continued blessings upon all members of the group.

Activities marking the Second Homecoming concluded on December 28 with a Thanksgiving Mass celebrated by Rev Fr Raphael Appiah Nimoh. The Mass brought together parishioners from near and far to thank God for the success of the outreach and to renew their commitment to unity, service and the holistic growth of the parish.

As a recognised development partner of the Sacred Heart Quasi Parish, the Diasporans Parishioners Association continues to support welfare and development initiatives within the community. Through acts of charity such as this outreach, the Association affirms its dedication to living the Gospel by caring for the sick, the vulnerable and those in need.

1st book of Kings 21,17-29.

After the death of Naboth the LORD said to... Elijah the Tishbite:
"Start down to meet Ahab, king of Israel, who rules in Samaria. He will be in the vineyard of Naboth, of which he has come to take possession.
This is what you shall tell him, 'The LORD says: After murdering, do you also take possession? For this, the LORD says: In the place where the dogs licked up the blood of Naboth, the dogs shall lick up your blood, too.'"
"Have you found me out, my enemy?" Ahab said to Elijah. "Yes," he answered. "Because you have given yourself up to doing evil in the LORD'S sight,
I am bringing evil upon you: I will destroy you and will cut off every male in Ahab's line, whether slave or freeman, in Israel.
I will make your house like that of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, and like that of Baasha, son of Ahijah, because of how you have provoked me by leading Israel into sin."
(Against Jezebel, too, the LORD declared, "The dogs shall devour Jezebel in the district of Jezreel.")
"When one of Ahab's line dies in the city, dogs will devour him; when one of them dies in the field, the birds of the sky will devour him."
Indeed, no one gave himself up to the doing of evil in the sight of the LORD as did Ahab, urged on by his wife Jezebel.
He became completely abominable by following idols, just as the Amorites had done, whom the LORD drove out before the Israelites.
When Ahab heard these words, he tore his garments and put on sackcloth over his bare flesh. He fasted, slept in the sackcloth, and went about subdued.
Then the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite,
"Have you seen that Ahab has humbled himself before me? Since he has humbled himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his time. I will bring the evil upon his house during the reign of his son."

Psalms 51(50),3-4.5-6ab.11.16.

Have mercy on me, O God, in your goodness;
in... the greatness of your compassion wipe out my offense.
Thoroughly wash me from my guilt
and of my sin cleanse me.

For I acknowledge my offense,
and my sin is before me always:
"Against you only have I sinned,
and done what is evil in your sight."

Turn away your face from my sins,
and blot out all my guilt.
Free me from blood guilt, O God, my saving God;
then my tongue shall revel in your justice.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 5,43-48.

Jesus said to his disciples: "You have... heard that it was said, You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.
But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you,
that you may be children of your heavenly Father, for he makes his sun rise on the bad and the good, and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.
For if you love those who love you, what recompense will you have? Do not the tax collectors do the same?
And if you greet your brothers only, what is unusual about that? Do not the pagans do the same?
So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect."
