7) STUDENT PROFILE
Once again we are glad to provide you with the profile of one of our students.
We introduce to you Isaac Sewornu, one of the students who graduated on July 31, 2022. Isaac was 64 years on March 8th, 2022, and is married to Madam Grace Abena Serwonu both are cocoa farmers. Isaac Sewornu lives at Fosukrom, a farming village in Ahafo Region in Ghana. He worked as an untrained preacher, for six years before he enrolled in this college in 2018. During his studies in this college, the other churches engaged him in their rural communities as their preacher. These churches made collective fundraising and bought a motorcycle for Isaac so that he can visit a congregation every month. Bro. Sewornu attended the Awutu Bogyease Middle School in the Central Region and had the Middle School Leaving Certificate. Isaac had no secondary education after Middle School, so he did not receive good grades as per our already-sent transcript. In their provisional results, as we wait for the Bear Valley Certificates we gave him a certificate of completion. In fact, we offered him admission as a result of diligent congregation work and his zeal to preach in the Akan Language.
