Ghana Mission Project

We are working together with Maple Grove Mennonite Church to develop a partnership with the Good News Theological College & Seminary in Ghana.

In May of 2008 our churches sent a joint delegation to Ghana to visit the seminary and meet the leaders, faculty, staff, and students.  The purpose of this exploratory trip was to listen and learn from our Ghanaian brothers and sisters.

The Rev. Thomas Oduro, principal of the seminary, visited in October 2008, making presentations at Allegheny Conference and at a joint service and fellowship meal with University Mennonite Church and Maple Grove.

Check out the links below to learn more about the history of the project, to see some pictures of the school and our trips, and to view prayer requests from the seminary.
