With the support of the Togo Center, Ghanaian initiates now have a clean and comfortable center of their own.

The residents of Ghana are religious, optimistic and happy, and local people, adult and children alike, often greet passersby in the street. The Ghana center is located in a village called Annya, about 12 km north of the capital city of Accra.

Craving to Know the Mystery of Heaven

Fellow initiates in Ghana have practiced the Quan Yin Method for less than a year, but they had been seeking the Truth for more than twenty years. One of the local brothers told us that, even as a little boy, he had wept alone quietly in his room because God, whom he wanted so much to know, was nowhere to be found. As he grew up, his yearning for God also increased. Thus, he and a group of village friends who shared the same ideal formed a spiritual group to focus on spiritual learning and serve the local community. They gave their best effort where help was needed, either in sharing doctrines or building houses. They believed that they have to first serve God in order to know Hirm. In addition to offering their services to others, they also studied spiritual books, hoping to better know God. Thus did they persist in their quest for God. Though their efforts were not completely fruitless, they did not find peace of mind and contentment.

Then, one day a Ghanaian brother read Mark Chapter 4 of the New Testament, which describes how Jesus Christ used the parable of sowing seeds to edify the people. However, when His disciples asked in privacy the true meaning of this parable, Jesus told them. "Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the Kingdom of God; but unto them that are without, all things are done in parables." Suddenly, it dawned on this brother that it is impossible to find the superior teachings in the scriptures, which was precisely what he needed--to know the mystery of the Heavenly Kingdom.

He shared this insight with his comrades, and they all agreed with him. They had spent twenty-five years in that spiritual group, yet they knew nothing about the mystery of the Heavenly Kingdom. So they started contacting other spiritual groups, seeking relevant information, and were ready to exhaust all means to learn the mystery of the Heavenly Kingdom.
