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.

Wednesday of the Twentieth week in Ordinary Time

Book of Ezekiel 34,1-11.

Thus the word of the LORD came to me:
Son... of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, in these words prophesy to them (to the shepherds): Thus says the Lord GOD: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who have been pasturing themselves! Should not shepherds, rather, pasture sheep?
You have fed off their milk, worn their wool, and slaughtered the fatlings, but the sheep you have not pastured.
You did not strengthen the weak nor heal the sick nor bind up the injured. You did not bring back the strayed nor seek the lost, but you lorded it over them harshly and brutally.
So they were scattered for lack of a shepherd, and became food for all the wild beasts. My sheep were scattered
and wandered over all the mountains and high hills; my sheep were scattered over the whole earth, with no one to look after them or to search for them.
Therefore, shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:
As I live, says the Lord GOD, because my sheep have been given over to pillage, and because my sheep have become food for every wild beast, for lack of a shepherd; because my shepherds did not look after my sheep, but pastured themselves and did not pasture my sheep;
because of this, shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:
Thus says the Lord GOD: I swear I am coming against these shepherds. I will claim my sheep from them and put a stop to their shepherding my sheep so that they may no longer pasture themselves. I will save my sheep, that they may no longer be food for their mouths.
For thus says the Lord GOD: I myself will look after and tend my sheep.
