Peki Seminary in Ghana
Peki Seminary provides training for pastors and other church leaders of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Ghana (west Africa). Although the seminary plays a crucial role in the growing ministry of this denomination, it is critically underfunded because of the nation's economic situation. Faculty are not paid regularly, facilities and equipment cannot be maintained and upgraded properly, and it is a struggle for the seminary staff to fund feed the students on a small budget. Old Union's support for Peki Seminary will help to lessen these financial struggles. Previous support has helped to rennovated the women's student dormitory and to purchase a photocopier.
