Speaking to this reporter at his office at the Asokwa Marriage Registry where he leads as Head of Department, Reverend Krampah said marriage was not meant by God to be a cumbersome or costly enterprise.
‘’I believe many Christian leaders and churches have a wrong conception about marriage and have by their views being scaring prospective couples away from getting married in the church but marriage should not be a costly venture’’, Reverend Krampah stated.
Reverend Krampah also welcomed persons who have been ostracized by the church due to any bad act they may have committed as well as those facing other challenges to visit the counseling department at the Asokwa Assembly to undergo therapy that would ensure they regularize and consummate their union.
DETAILS:
