End of year program
At the meeting, we all agreed to conduct a joint service on the 31st of December 2011. As a tradition, all the congregations in the Kpalime area converge at the Nyiveme Church of Christ to bring the old year to a close and usher in a New one. The service will start about 9:00 pm and end at 12:30 am January 2012. This year we plan to conduct the Sunday worship service followed by breakfast meal. We shall close finally at about 1:30, leave for our various homes not to return for the usual morning service at 9:00 am. We are expecting members from ten congregations and several visitors from the community.
