MUSIC
Abiding Word Church, Ghana sees music as an indispensable part of ministry. This is particularly true when the impact of music in warfare, worship and evangelism are put into perspective. Music encourages the discouraged, uplifts the down-hearted, strengthens the weak and exalts God. Most significantly, music brings the presence of God down. This is accompanied by a divine working of the Spirit spanning deep and secret work in the soul to the mighty palpable demonstration of the power of God wherever songs of worship and praise ascend to the throne of God.

We therefore have a vibrant music ministry formed from a crop of dedicated men and women who sense the call of God upon their lives in this direction; and who wish to live the rest of their lives in obedience to this heavenly call. We believe that skill alone is not enough to make the impact God intends music to make in the congregation. It also takes the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The music department is one place where member are always encouraged to stay spiritually alert through fasting, prayer and holiness.

 
CHILDREN
The generation of saints who will proudly stand for the cause of Christ after the present one is long gone are today’s children who sometimes sneak into the isles during church services. Sometimes they make a lot of noise to distract attention, yet these are the great men and women who will take up the baton in the race of life that seeks to make Christ relevant to a world tottering at the edge of a dangerous precipice – a sorrowful sight without the Saviour.

In Abiding Word Church these precious gifts of God sing happily but rather discordantly in their Sunday school services that sometimes it’s a headache listening to them. Yet, deep within their hearts, good seeds are being sown and watered every Sunday in obedience to the biblical command of “train up a child in the way he should go, and when he’s old, he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6). With the kind of dedication displayed by teachers in this ministry, the children get the best of inspiration through drama, bible stories, poetry and memory verse recitals and songs that will help mould them into vessels fit for the Master’s use in the near future.

Women
Women have God ordained and privileged task in life. They exert a profound influence on their husbands and the entire home. They bear many responsibilities of their homes, and are also always to be subject to their husbands, in the Lord. In spite of they being referred to as the weaker vessels (1 Peter 3:7), they also have a beautiful and boundless ministry if they want to obey the Great Commission and go out and win souls for Christ. 
Having recognized the crucial role women play both at home and in the ministry, the women’s ministry seeks to equip women in the church to be virtuous women at home (to exhibit the adorable positive character traits that springs from a right relationship with God) while they also effectively take up the challenge of contributing to the growth of the ministry. The ministry is also there to motivate women in the church to acquire the necessary skills that will help them make a lot of impact in their chosen careers and also be better positioned to make financial contributions to church projects.
