Ghana

Born into a non-Christian family, I came to know Jesus as my Lord and Savior during my early teenage years through a simple invitation to church. Despite opposition, my faith grew stronger, and I became deeply committed to sharing the Gospel. Married since 2010, I am blessed with three wonderful children—two girls and a boy. Alongside my spiritual journey, I hold a Doctor of Optometry degree and have served as an optometrist with the Ghana Health Service since 2011. My burden for souls led me to organize medical evangelistic outreaches for various churches and denominations since 2018, driven by the conviction that soul-winning must be complemented by intentional discipleship.

My search for resources to disciple new converts led me to discover WDA in 2022. Through their Restoring Your Heart (RYH) facilitators training in Ghana, I experienced life-changing growth and began leading my own discipleship groups. Guided by mentorship from Dr. Prince Charles Oteng-Boateng, I embraced WDA’s discipleship methods and resources, which have profoundly shaped my ministry. In addition to receiving training and an appointment as an evangelist in 2021, I was ordained as a minister in 2023, solidifying my commitment to equipping others for the kingdom.

As founder and executive director of Divine Tetelestai Outreach Ministry, a non-profit organization, I evangelize and disciple children and youth, addressing their needs in health, clothing, and financial support. Collaborating with organizations such as OneHope Ghana, The Bible Society of Ghana, and The Samaritan Purse Ghana, I work to bring transformative programs to communities in need. To enhance my ministry, I have completed courses in NGO Project & Operations Management and Project and Innovation Management. With God’s guidance and the support of the WDA family, I aim to expand this mission, impacting lives and communities in Ghana and beyond.
