He said the church will not concentrate on the spiritual needs of society alone but also material and physical needs, which is needed for its entire well-being.

Chief Superintendent of Prison (CSP) Margaret Dangah, who received the items on behalf of the inmates, thanked the church for the kind gesture and called on other public spirited individuals and organizations to emulate the good example.

A short church service was held after the donation to encourage the inmates and the need to develop their spiritual lives.
