The Upper Room Temple of the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC), located at Mataheko near Kaneshie First-Light in Accra, has undertaken a tree planting exercise at Bentum, a community near Bawjaise.

Among others, the tree planting picnic enabled members to familiarise themselves with a five-acre parcel of land the Church had recently acquired for the construction of the Central Children’s Home (CCH).

The ¢15 million project is estimated to be completed by 2031.

When completed, the state-of-the-art facility will become home for about 500 vulnerable children, orphans and especially children of prisoners all across the country.

In an interview with the resident minister Rev. Kweku Ewusie-Mensah he explained the CCH project is part of their mission as a church to rescue children in ‘crises’ and bring them to Christ through healing, hope and a home.

He also said that their doors are open to other organisations, churches and individuals willing to support financially to make this mission a reality.
