Agricultural Development


  One of Ghana Christian Mission's projects is agricultural development to create employment and generate income for the church members.
  
  The members of three churches in Ghana--- Akraman,Gakope and Accra-North Christian churches had been working together on a pineapple project with seed money provided by IDES-International Disaster and Emergency Services.The farm is at Akraman in the Eastern Region of Ghana. 

We took a tour of the Pineapple farm owned by the Ghana Christian Mission. These pineapples are sold to locations such as Europe, and the money is used for ministry in Ghana. 

  This is a crucial part of doing mission work... sustainable resources,  which support jobs for the locals thereby developing their independence, and helping them to ascend from poverty.
