The Christ General International Gospel Church has held a week-long celebration in honour of its founder’s 60th birthday and its 15th anniversary.
Rev Winfred Lomotey Nartey-Graham was born to the Nartey family of Ada on May 29, 1958. He reportedly dedicated his entire life to the service of God and mankind.
To contribute to the advancement of the gospel, young Nartey-Graham at the age of nine accordingly started writing gospel songs, and made music a key part of his Christian life.
“You started writing songs at an early age of 9,” a citation presented to him by members of his church on the occasion of his 60th birthday celebration read.
The citation added that “the production of many of today’s renowned Ghanaian gospel musicians can affirm this achievement.”
In a sermon on Sunday, June 3, 2018 at a church service at Nungua to climax the celebration, Rev Nartey-Graham urged global leaders and citizens to devote their lives to the service of God and humanity and eschew corruption, bribery and homosexuality.
He said the world has become highly corrupt and demonic to an extent that only a handful of people are enjoying whilst the masses struggle to even get one square meal a day.
The man of God added that “the pressure to survive and succeed has never been higher and this has thrown untold millions into disorder and mess.”
According to him, the gap between the rich and the poor has never been wider and this untold hardship is always growing at alarming and disturbing rate.
Surprisingly, ministers of the gospel who are supposed to uphold high morality, he said, are also found wanting for corruption and exploitations of their congregations.
On the issue of homosexuality, Rev Nartey-Graham bemoaned that “in today’s culture, there is almost an obsession or fascination with the same-sex lifestyle.”
According to him, same-sex marriage “is unacceptable” and must never be encouraged in the Ghanaian society, lambasting Western nations who are pushing homosexuality on African countries.
He also seized the opportunity to encourage Ghanaians to be conscious of sanitation in their communities, lamenting that the country is being overtaken by filth.
