The Apostolic Nuncio to Ghana, H.E Most Rev. Julien Kabore, is expected to climax his pastoral visit to the Diocese with a solemn Holy Mass at St. Francis of Assisi Parish in Ho Kpevele today. The event is anticipated to bring together clergy, religious faithful and members of the Catholic community in a celebration of faith, service and thanksgiving.
As part of the solemn celebration, the Vicar-General of the Diocese, Very Rev. Fr. Walter Agbetoh, and Very Rev. Fr. Clemence Ashiara will be elevated to the rank of Monsignor in recognition of their faithful service to the Church and humanity. The honour, conferred as a papal recognition, acknowledges their dedication and contributions to pastoral ministry and the growth of the Church.
Four lay faithfuls Dame Florence Ofori, Sir Bernard Wisdom Quarshie, Sir Jonathan Kofi Torku and Sir Ernest Kwame Afla will receive the St. Gregory the Great Award for their exceptional and dedicated service to the Diocese and the wider Church. The award is one of the Catholic Church’s distinguished honours bestowed on lay persons who have demonstrated outstanding commitment to the mission and values of the Church.
The Diocese has called on the faithful and the general public to join in the thanksgiving celebration to honour the commitment, witness and dedication of the awardees to God and His Church, while marking the successful conclusion of the Apostolic Nuncio’s pastoral visit.
