In a significant step towards enhancing pastoral outreach in remote communities, the District Pastor of Nzema East Assemblies of God, Rev. Paul Kwame Tomekyen, has handed over five brand-new motorbikes to pastors working in hard-to-reach areas of the district.

The presentation took place during a special District Holiday Prayer Retreat at Adom, Purity and Praise Palace Assemblies of God in Aiyinase, where Rev. Tomekyen also serves as Lead Pastor.

Vision

The initiative follows a vision he shared during the 2025 Easter Convention, where he outlined the transportation challenges faced by pastors who shepherd multiple congregations scattered across rural terrain. He called on members to support the goal of equipping pastors with reliable means of transport to ease their burden and improve ministry efficiency.

Members across the district responded with overwhelming support, contributing financially to make the vision a reality. Their collective effort led to the purchase of five new motorbikes, all registered in the name of Assemblies of God,Ghana.

Presentation

The motorbikes were presented to Pastor Joseph Baidoo, Rev. Samuel Gogoe, St. Pastor Ebenezer Boison, Pastor Williams Quaye, and St. Pastor Nathaniel Buah, who each serve churches in different parts of the district.

The handing over ceremony was presided over by the Regional Treasurer of the South-Western Region of Assemblies of God, Ghana Rev. Stephen Ansah.

In his remarks, he praised the leadership of Rev. Tomekyen and the generosity of the congregants, noting that the effort exemplifies the church's commitment to practical ministry support.

“These motorbikes will go a long way in helping our pastors reach more souls and serve their communities better,” he said.

Appreciation

Rev. Tomekyen expressed heartfelt gratitude to all who supported the vision and reaffirmed his commitment to equipping more pastors in the future.

 “This is a shared victory for the entire district. When pastors are empowered, the gospel moves faster and farther,” he added.

The Nzema East District, part of Ghana’s South-Western Region, remains largely rural, making mobility a major challenge for ministers. Initiatives like these are seen as essential to strengthening the church’s mission in the region.
