Growing With
How Your ECO Dollars Help Mission in Ghana
by Doug Welch
The Presbyterian
Church (U.S.A.) is in partnership with two churches in Ghana-Presbyterian
Church of Ghana (PCG) and Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana
(EPC). While headquartered in different cities, Accra and Ho,
respectively, congregations from each of these partners are found
across Ghana.
Both the EPC and the PCG depend on the donations of their
members to support the administration of their churches. Salary
costs, transportation needs, utilities and similar expenses are
all nonglamorous needs that the members are not able to support
adequately. Undesignated contributions to each church's ECO account
can be used by the EPC and the PCG according to their present
needs.
Presbyterian Church of Ghana (PCG), ECO #306102
Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana (EPC), ECO #864106
