Members of the Executive Purposeful Ladies Ministry (EPLM) paid a visit to Kwabenya SHS on the 21st July 2019 to provide career guidance and counselling for the students. As part of the visit, the ladies shared experiences on various career paths and donated assorted elective books to the school’s library.
This was done as part of encouraging the girl child to work harder and aspire higher in their desired careers. The gesture formed part of the Ministry’s efforts to reach out to the youth (especially the girl child) in second cycle institutions to encourage them and also serve as role models.
Receiving the items on behalf of the school were the Assistant Headmistress and Master, Madam Dorothy Parker and Mr. Isaac Ofoi Tugbenyo. They thanked EPLM for the show of love, kindness and support for the students. She called on other similar ministries and groups to imitate the visit to encourage the students and act as a complement to the hard work of teachers.
In her presentation, the Founder and President of EPLM, Mrs. Mina Lassey, shared the factors to consider when choosing a career and emphasized the role of God in the choice of a career path as demonstrated in Jeremiah 1:5. She advised the students to work hard and never give up on their goals saying “with determination, consistency and a strong focus on God, you can achieve great results”.
EPLM is a non-denominational network of ladies who have come together to fellowship, share ideas and experiences to equip them to prosper, thrive and reach their full potential in God. The Ministry also seeks to raise women leaders to live in full submission to Christ as Lord, live, love, and leave a legacy by achieving their God-given potential.
As a part of fulfilling its mission and vision, EPLM extends love, care and support to youths (girl child) and the less privileged in society. It is against this background that they extend support to second cycle institutions to encourage the students to work hard and also find hope and peace in God.
