Christian Aid events to challenge scandal of poverty in Ghana

NOTE: I have witnessed the poverty in Ghana during my three visits.

Above all, please remember Evangelist Ralph, his family, ministry organization, all of the recipients of their ministry and the people of Ghana in your prayers.

A new series of events by Christian Aid aims to throw the spotlight on the poverty that continues to grip Ghana in spite of its wealth of natural resources.
