The outgoing Superintendent Minister in charge of Ghana Methodist Mission in Canada, Very Reverend Jacob William French, on December 5, finally bid the church farewell to mark the end of his five years term of office in Toronto.The church organized a glamorous farewell service to mark the occasion where both leaders and members showed their appreciation to the minister of God.What could have been a moment of joy turned out to be moment of broken hearts as some members of the church shared tears and sob immediately he delivered his farewell sermon.However, in a soul touching farewell sermon, which was greeted with a standing ovation from a section of the members, Reverend French, prayed that the good Lord would continue to hold the church with His strong arm for it to grow from strength to strength so that the people will see His miraculous power in their lives.He soothed the hearts of many who were sad by saying, “there is time for everything. Time for arrival and time for departure”, and promised to pay them occasional visits.Very Reverend French, charged the congregation to fear God by serving Him faithfully. According to him, he was 16 years old when he accepted Jesus Christ as his personal savior. Ten years later, he heard the call to go into full time ministry and if the good Lord has granted him mercies in all his 22 years experience as a minister of God, he has every right to praise Him for that.“Throughout my life I have feared God and served him faithfully and I want to share the greatest direction to God with you and again [you should] fear Him and worship Him faithfully”.He encouraged the congregation to always celebrate the mercies and goodness of God, which he explained as celebrating the goodness in people’s lives and not dwelling on their weak side.Then followed his last prayer for the members which triggered the emotions, “God should always be with you and your children for you to testify that you are worshiping the almighty God, he should listen to your prayers as you reap peace, blessing and understanding in returns that you can continue the work of salvation in the community.”He praised the members for their hospitality, humility, love, friendship and prayers which enabled him and his family to successfully embark on the spiritual journey.
