A delegation from the Assemblies of God (AG) World Congress, led by the General Superintendent of Assemblies of God, Ghana, Rev. Stephen Wengam, has paid a courtesy call on the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, at his office in Accra.

Rev. Wengam was accompanied by the General Secretary, Rev. Albert Anane, Chairman of the Local Organising Committee, Rev. Andrews Awintia, and other members of the committee.

The Minister was joined by his Deputy, James Gyakye Quayson, Chief Director, Ambassador Khadija Iddrisu, and other senior officials to receive the delegation.

The visit was to officially inform government about the 10th Triennial Congress of the World Assemblies of God Fellowship scheduled for October 14 to 16, 2026 in Accra, and to seek the support of the Ministry in hosting the event.

Rev. Wengam noted that it is the first time the Congress is being held in Africa and in Ghana, adding that it will bring significant spiritual and economic benefits to the country, especially at a time when the sitting President is a member of the Church.

He expressed gratitude to President John Mahama and the Government of Ghana for their support in organising the event, and appealed for assistance at Ghana’s embassies abroad to facilitate visa acquisition for international guests where necessary.

He also disclosed that former President of Malawi, Rev. Dr. Lazarus Chakwera, a former General Superintendent of Malawi Assemblies of God, will be in attendance.

Mr. Ablakwa commended the World Assemblies of God Fellowship for choosing Ghana and Africa as hosts, acknowledging that the Assemblies of God, as the largest Protestant denomination in the world, has contributed immensely to global evangelisation and peace.

He pledged government’s full support to ensure the success of the Congress, noting that President Mahama had directed his Ministry to provide all necessary assistance.

The Minister appointed two senior officials of the Ministry to serve on the Local Organising Committee, in addition to a staff member already serving on it.

Rev. Wengam presented a Bible as a gift to the Minister, admonishing him to be guided by the Word of God as he leads the sector.
