The Anglican Diocese of Accra has ordained the first three women deaconesses as priests of the Anglican Church of Ghana.
The three are Rev. Mrs. Stella Bentsi-Enchil, Rev. Mrs. Alberta Kennies Addo, and Rev. Ms. Susanna C. Naana Ackun.
In a sermon, the Archbishop and Primate of the Church of the Province of West Africa and Bishop of Accra, the Most Rev Dr Justice O. Akrofi, reminded the new priests of their call to fulfill the vision of God for mankind.
He said they had been called among many and, therefore, they should act as leaders with great respect, humility, patience and love for all.
