The Ghana National Catholic Youth Council (GHANCYC), under the auspices of the Ghana Catholic Bishops’ Conference, has honoured Mr. Dennis Appiah-Sasraku with a Citation of Honour in recognition of his outstanding dedication, selfless service, and exemplary leadership to the Catholic youth apostolate in Ghana.

The citation, presented by the National Executive of GHANCYC, acknowledges Mr. Appiah-Sasraku’s immense contributions to the growth and development of the Council, which serves as the umbrella body uniting Catholic youth across the Archdioceses, Dioceses, and Movements of the Church in Ghana.

According to the citation, Mr. Appiah-Sasraku distinguished himself through unwavering commitment, tireless sacrifices, and servant leadership, significantly strengthening the bonds of fellowship among Catholic youth throughout the country. His tenure and involvement in the youth ministry were marked by a deep sense of humility and faith, qualities that enabled him to champion the mission of the Council and guide young people towards responsible Christian discipleship.

The Council further noted that his leadership left a lasting legacy of service, unity, and commitment to the Church. Beyond advancing the work of GHANCYC, his devotion inspired many young Catholics across the various Archdioceses, Dioceses, and Movements to deepen their relationship with Christ and actively participate in the life and mission of the Church.

Presenting the honour, GHANCYC praised Mr. Appiah-Sasraku as a devoted son of the Church whose contributions have had a profound impact on the spiritual and leadership formation of Catholic youth in Ghana. The citation described his service as a shining example of commitment to the values of the Gospel and the ideals of Catholic youth ministry.

The Council emphasized that the recognition serves not only as an appreciation of his past achievements but also as a testament to the enduring influence of his leadership and mentorship among generations of young Catholics.

Monday of the Twenty-sixth week in Ordinary Time

Book of Job 1,6-22.

One day, when the angels of God came to present... themselves before the LORD,
And the LORD said to Satan, "Whence do you come?" Then Satan answered the LORD and said, "From roaming the earth and patrolling it."
And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you noticed my servant Job, and that there is no one on earth like him, blameless and upright, fearing God and avoiding evil?"
But Satan answered the LORD and said, "Is it for nothing that Job is God-fearing?
Have you not surrounded him and his family and all that he has with your protection? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his livestock are spread over the land.
But now put forth your hand and touch anything that he has, and surely he will blaspheme you to your face."
And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not lay a hand upon his person." So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.
And so one day, while his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their eldest brother,
a messenger came to Job and said, "The oxen were plowing and the asses grazing beside them,
and the Sabeans carried them off in a raid. They put the herdsmen to the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you."
While he was yet speaking, another came and said, "Lightning has fallen from heaven and struck the sheep and their shepherds and consumed them; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
While he was yet speaking, another came and said, "The Chaldeans formed three columns, seized the camels, carried them off, and put those tending them to the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you."
While he was yet speaking, another came and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their eldest brother,
when suddenly a great wind came across the desert and smote the four corners of the house. It fell upon the young people and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
Then Job began to tear his cloak and cut off his hair. He cast himself prostrate upon the ground,
and said, "Naked I came forth from my mother's womb, and naked shall I go back again. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD!"
In all this Job did not sin, nor did he say anything disrespectful of God.

Psalms 17(16),1.2-3.6-7.

Hear, O LORD, a just suit;
attend to... my outcry;
hearken to my prayer from lips without deceit.

From you let my judgment come;
Your eyes behold what is right.
Though you test my heart, searching it in the night,
though you try me with fire, you shall find no malice in me.

I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God;
incline your ear to me; hear my word.
Show your wondrous mercies,
O savior of those who flee from their foes

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 9,46-50.

An argument arose among the disciples about... which of them was the greatest.
Jesus realized the intention of their hearts and took a child and placed it by his side
and said to them, "Whoever receives this child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me. For the one who is least among all of you is the one who is the greatest."
Then John said in reply, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name and we tried to prevent him because he does not follow in our company."
Jesus said to him, "Do not prevent him, for whoever is not against you is for you."
