The Ghanaian Catholic Bishop said strengthening youth ministry has become a pastoral priority for the Diocese of Obuasi, particularly in light of challenges facing young people. “My focus is now on the youth apostolate in the Obuasi Diocese. Bishop Afoakwa added, “The reason why Jesus has called you to be His priests is to shepherd His wandering flock.” The 71-year-old Catholic Bishop reminded the Priests-elect that their vocation is rooted in God's initiative and should always be treasured as a sacred calling. Speak like a Priest and behave like a Priest,” he said.
