To kickstart the 40th Anniversary Celebrations of Flowers Gay Schools, a Thanksgiving Service has been held to appreciate God for all the goodness and mercy He has showered on the Schools over its more than four decades of existence.
The Schools also offered high praise and epic worship in appreciation for God’s direction, guidance and protection through all the changing scenes of its life.
The service opened with a word of prayer by Rev. Nana Folson which was followed by a period of praise and worship which was led by Rev. Amponsah of the Fountain Gate Chapel, Ankaful.
The Word of God for the occasion was delivered powerfully by Rev. Roland Roberts of the Action Chapel International, Chosen Family, Cape Coast.
The Schools was also honored by the presence of the Honorable Central Regional Minister – Hon. Kwamena Duncan, Mrs. Gloria Folson and Mr. Kwete Quaynor (Directors of Flowers Gay Schools), Rev. Noah Adunkwaah (Head Pastor, Maranatha Assemblies of God), Major Bohyeba, Asempatease, heads of other private Schools, parents, alumni and many other well-wishers of the Schools.
Indeed it was a joyous occasion of extreme gratitude to God Almighty and with hearts and hands and voices, the whole congregation of pupils, staff and parents as well as other well wishers offered praise and thanksgiving to the only one and truly deserving God Almighty.
The Honorable Central Regional Minister who shared a few words with the congregants expressed his delight at the honor done him to by inviting him to be part of the Schools’40th Anniversary Celebrations. He emphasized the manner in which the alumni of the Schools have impacted all sectors of the economy and mentioned that himself as a witness of the level of excellence alumni of the Flowers Gay Schools exhibit after passing through the institution. He was of the view that the success story is one that projects the Central Region as a whole and which has provided the Central with much needed job opportunities. He wished the management and staff well and further made a generous cash donation to the Schools. He prayed that the Schools shall celebrate many more of such anniversaries in the years ahead.
Again in drawing the curtain on the 40th anniversary celebrations, a Founders Day Service was held at the Maranatha Assembles of God Church in Cape Coast in memory of the late proprietress of the Schools (Mrs. Selimy Gifty Quaynor), again in thanksgiving to God for using her to establish such an institution in her lifetime.
Rev. Noah Adunkwah (Head Pastor of the Maranatha Assembles of God Church, Cape Coast), paid a glowing tribute to late proprietress and stressed
Prophet Agyapong, who delivered the sermon for the day further eulogized the late proprietress and encouraged the church to emulate her example. He declared a prayer of blessing over the Schools and decreed that the Schools shall not fold up as many have done in Cape Coast but that the Schools shall increase from grace to grace to bring glory and honor to God Almighty in whom ‘Mummy’ always put her trust.
Management of the Schools gave a thanksgiving offering on behalf of the Schools in appreciation for all the great things God has done for the Schools and further thanked the Church, which was the assembly which the proprietress worship with, for their prayers and support. Special appreciation given to Rev. Noah Adunwaah for his exceptional support and genuine love and concern for the Schools.
