As part of its mission to share the love and teachings of Christ, LHM—Ghana is committed to reaching out to people in rural communities throughout the country and making a meaningful impact in their lives. Through many of their recent rural outreach activities, staff and volunteers have witnessed the power of connection, education, and faith sharing.
One of the ministry center's primary platforms for engaging with rural communities is through radio programs on local FM stations. Broadcasting messages of hope, love, and faith, the programs have reached countless individuals who may not have access to other forms of media. Through insightful discussions, inspirational stories, and uplifting music, the programs bring light to the hearts and minds of those in need.
Film shows are another successful way of reaching people in rural locations. A recent film show in Tamale had around 20 people attend, providing a unique opportunity for individuals to come together, enjoy wholesome entertainment, and reflect on the important Gospel messages conveyed through the films. These events foster community spirit while also planting seeds of faith and inspiration in the hearts of attendees.
LHM—Ghana also hosts Equipping the Saints workshops that empower church members in rural communities. The training consists of four stages, with each stage focused on building knowledge, developing skills, and cultivating confidence in sharing one's faith. During the training, participants are divided into groups to engage in meaningful discussions on assorted topics related to evangelism. This interactive approach allows for the exchange of ideas and experiences, enriching each participant's understanding of effective communication and outreach. Additionally, each participant receives a copy of LHM's booklet titled, How to Talk About Your Faith. This resource serves as a practical guide to equip individuals with the necessary tools to effectively share the Gospel and engage in meaningful conversations about faith. At the end of the training, each participant is awarded a certificate of completion to acknowledge their commitment and dedication.
"These rural outreach initiatives have been instrumental in bridging gaps, offering hope, and empowering individuals in remote communities," says LHM's regional director for Africa and the Middle East. "Through our radio programs, film shows, and training sessions, we are making a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve. We remain committed to spreading the light of God's love throughout these communities to positively impact people's lives through the power of the Holy Spirit."
