Dansoman and surrounding communities were the beneficiaries of LIFECHECK 2026, an innovative community outreach initiative focused on providing holistic support across healthcare, education, nutrition, and social welfare.
Held on Saturday, September 26, 2026, at KariKari Park in Dansoman under the theme “LOVE BEYOND WORDS,” the event was organised by the Empowerment Worship Centre and its outreach arm, the Empowerment Care Foundation.
The initiative successfully reached over 13,000 individuals from Dansoman, Mamprobi, Chorkor, Lartebiokoshie, and beyond, demonstrating a profound commitment to community upliftment.
Speaking to the media during the outreach, Prophet Gideon Danso, Global Lead Pastor of Empowerment Worship Centre, emphasised that faith must be demonstrated through tangible acts of kindness.
“Christianity is about extending love to others. Our faith must be demonstrated through acts of kindness and service. LIFECHECK is our commitment to be the church beyond the walls. Today, we brought the hospital and the classroom to KariKari Park,” Prophet Danso said.
He further elaborated on the mission: “The foundation of the church is about civilisation—bringing people out of darkness. We believe that by addressing real needs—fixing teeth, providing health insurance, and equipping children for school—that is Love Beyond Words.”
