THE Methodist Bishop of Accra Diocese, Rt Rev. Abraham Tagoe has cut the sod for the commencement of work on a four-storey-building project for the Trinity Methodist Church in Accra.

The church steward, Commander James McCarthy-Boham, said the church started with ?? dedicative?? services and greater participation by members, residents and Evangelist Benjamin Obeng, who later established the Dzorwulu branch.

"The church, which started with membership of twelve Christians have today risen between a hundred and five to two hundred and fifty membership composition", said Cdr Boham.

He indicated that the ground floor would be used as a nursery school for moral upbringing of church and community young ones. This he said, was part of their social responsibility towards the community.

The first and second floor, he indicated would be used for services, conferences and offices.

The third floor will be the abode of the resident circuit superintendent minister, he said.

Cdr McCarthy-Boham established that the project was solely financed by church members during harvest, weekly offertory, tithes and individual donations.

He added that the church was targeting fifteen thousand cedis for the November annual harvest offertory.

He also hinted that the nursery school will aid in further development of the complex building.

Assisting the officiating minister included the Circuit Superintendent Minister Very Rev. Henry Ampaw Asiedu, Rt Rev. Ebenezer K. Dadson, Very Rev. Alfred Aryeetay,  Very Rev. Prof. Asamoah Gyedu, Rev. Anthony Sackey, Very Rev. Eric Asante Danquah among other high profiled bishops.
