JESUS SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD
From Beijing to London to Accra, many of the world’s cities have a square to boast of. A square in the mountains, however, is not as common.
Yet, nestled in the Akuapem mountains, amidst the hills of the impressive Anagkazo Bible and Ministry Training Centre, the Jesus Saviour of the World Square sits stately and proud, earning the awe of all who lay eyes on it.
A walk down the steep slopes adjacent the Mighty Fortress-a slightly precarious journey for the ladies in their Sunday high heels-leads you to a contrastingly flat and large expanse of red, sandy ground that stretches out all around you for several square metres. Once a week for the first half of 2021, it was dotted with red and black socially distanced chairs that were filled by young vibrant Christians from the city and surrounding towns alike, with our statement hats, sunglasses and umbrellas to protect ourselves from the midday sun.
With or without the chairs, however, the most commanding aspect of this open-air space that has been the First Love Church’s refuge, is the stage. This architectural feat is front and centre, several feet above the ground, complete with steps and a pulpit, entirely hewn out of the red, rocky mountainside with thick foliage as a backdrop.
Therein, against the dark green is found the square’s crowning feature: a bold, white sign akin to Hollywood’s that shouts, “JESUS SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD,” which now appears to be a landmark for the planes-they would circle and hover above us during the service. Rain or shine, it was under this great banner that we gathered to worship, fellowship and sit at the feet of our Prophet, pastor, teacher, father and architect of this great edifice, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills.
