MDCC General Secretary laid to rest

The mortal remains of the General Secretary of the Musama Disco Christo Church (MDCC), the Reverend Samuel Diona Hope Koufie, was laid to rest on Saturday at Mozano in the Gomoa District of the Central Region. Over 6,000 mourners from various branches of the Church including Missionaries from foreign countries including Cote D'Ivoire, Sierra Leone, Nigeria and Britain filed past the body, which was laid in state at the Mozano School park before the burial to pay their last respect to the Late General Secretary. A source close to the Police at Gomoa-Eshiem and Agona Bobikuma, told the Ghana News Agency (GNA) that some people from Mozano had earlier ceiled the grave to prevent the burial. The source said the Reverend Ministers and Council of Elders of the Church at Eshiem reported the matter to the Police who were investigating. In a sermon, the Reverend Cosmos Benyin of the Accra-North branch of the MDCC urged Christians to put their trust in God instead of struggling for positions and material things. Quoting the Bible he said, "We are confident, yes well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord". "Therefore we make it our aim whether present or absent to be well pleasing to him," he stated. He called on members of the Church to remain calm and steadfast since God was the only one to judge mankind and said, "No human being will be able to pass on judgement against his fellow being". In a tribute the Reverend Mord M Jehu-Appiah, a Senior Minister, said "Man's evil deeds are written boldly on the rock; his good one's on water and when I am right no one remembers and when I am wrong, no one forgets". He said he learnt a lot from the late Rev Koufie and got "A lot of inspiration from his usual wise sayings". Rev Jehu-Appiah recounted the history of late Rev Koufie, the late Akaboha II, Prophet Mathopoly Moses Jehu-Appiah and the prophecies on the late Prophetess Mathabinaiah Jehu-Appiah, the Akatitibi II. He said the Late Rev Koufie was transferred to Nkenkensu, Tafo Kumasi, Assin Damang, Akim Oda and Takoradi, London and the United States of America before finally being posted to Mozano as the General Secretary of the Church.
