Our new Blackburn Scholarship Recipient: My name is Akwasi Boateng. I was born in Ghana, West Africa, and immigrated to Canada in 1997. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and listening to music.
I currently serve as the North American Diocese Deacon of The Methodist Church Ghana and pastor of Ebenezer Methodist Church in Hamilton, a congregation of approximately 40 members. I hope to be ordained as a minister this year, pending completion of my church probationary requirements.
I am in my second year at Wycliffe College, pursuing a Master of Divinity (MDiv) degree. I am married and blessed with two children—a boy and a girl. I live in Paris, Ontario, approximately 110 km from Toronto.
My guiding philosophy is: “Nothing is too hard for the Lord if we trust and obey Him.”
My mission is to be a Minister of the Gospel whom God can use to make a meaningful impact. My primary focus is on children and youth; they are the church’s and society’s future.
