The Ashaiman District Youth Ministry of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana has donated items worth over GH¢1,000 to the Pantang Psychiatric Hospital.
The items included assorted foodstuffs, clothes and toiletries intended to show love to the inmates of the hospital.
Presenting the items, the District Organiser of the Youth Ministry, Mr John Ayitevie, said the gesture was in line with the ministry’s youth and student week celebrations.
He said the gesture was to show the ministry’s love, kindness and compassion to the inmates of the hospital.
He encouraged the youth to do their best to show love and compassion to the less privileged in society.
“By caring for and showing love and compassion to other brethren who are less privileged, we will be doing the Lord’s work,” he said.
Mr Ayitevie advised Christians to express the practicality of their beliefs by helping the less privileged in society, and by doing that, they would emulate what Christ came to do for humanity.
The Senior Nursing Officer of the hospital, Mr Francis Bensah, thanked the ministry for its kind gesture and promised, on behalf of management, to use the items for the purposes for which they were provided.
He appealed to other organisations to emulate the gesture of the Ashaiman District of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana.
