The Perez Chapel International has declared a one-week fasting and prayers in support of its founder and leader, Archbishop Charles Agyinasare.
This follows the controversy between Agyinasare and the chiefs and people of Nogokpo in the Volta Region over comments that the town is the “demonic headquarters” of the Volta Region.
Even though the revered man of God has clarified his comments saying he did not mean to cast a slur on the people of Nogokpo, the chiefs and elders of the town who are fuming with rage have summoned him to appear before them within the next 14 days or face their wrath.
Speaking during a Sunday church service, the Presiding Bishop of Perez Chapel International, Benjamin Ohene Aboagye declared the fast for all members of the church across the globe.
“On the 25th of last month, during our Supernatural Empowerment Summit, Archbishop Charles Agyinasare made a statement concerning the Nogokpo issue. I think we are all aware of the issue in Ghana. It is trending on social media and other platforms. We, the Perez Council, on behalf of the Executive Council, have taken notice of all these things and this is what the Executive Council is saying. We are declaring a one-week fast from the 5th to the 11th of this month, and we expect all pastors, elders, deacons, deaconesses, and all our churches to participate in this fast for one week. We believe that God is our helper. He is our rock. He is the one we look up to. So this is the decision we have taken for now. We expect everyone [in all our branches] to take part in this fast,” he said.
