Amaning, Missions Director and Reverend James Awuniselya, Prophetic Director.
The rest are Rev. Joseph Sakyi, Christian Education Director; and Reverend Justice Samuel Ebo Baiden, Evangelism Director.
Addressing the induction ceremony, the General Secretary of Ghana Pentecostal Council, Apostle Ekow Badu Wood, who spoke on the theme: “Better is the End than the Beginning,” advised the newly elected executives not to be self centred leaders in the discharge of their duties.
Transparency
He said the executive members should keep their eyes open and be transparent to the “finishing line” without letting any ambiguity to be their hallmark.
He said the God who had lifted them up was going to help them deliver their mandate successfully.
“Push forward no matter how stressful and have faith in the God that your end shall be great,” he said.
Apostle Wood tasked the church to support the new executives with prayers, good heart filled with the Holy Ghost for integrity to continue to prevail in their works and CACI as a whole.
Crusade against evil
In his acceptance speech, Apostle Amoani, pledged the church’s determination to speak against the ills and vices in the society and lead in the crusade against corruption, politics of insults, intimidation and violence which the mission condemns in no uncertain terms.
