During his formative years, Samuel dedicated himself to the ministry, serving as a Sunday school teacher in Ghana. His passion for nurturing young minds and hearts extended beyond the classroom; he became a mentor to the youth, guiding them through their spiritual and personal challenges with wisdom and compassion. His commitment to the younger generation is not just a duty but a calling—a reflection of his profound belief in their potential to shape the future of our faith and world.
His natural ability to connect, inspire, and lead has left indelible marks on many lives, fostering a sense of community and belonging among those he mentors. Samuel's journey in ministry led him to become the youth pastor at JCC
Now serving as one of our esteemed Pastors, Samuel continues to embody the spirit of servant leadership and his life and ministry shine as examples of God's grace in action.
