We celebrate Reverend Julius Coomson today with deep gratitude and appreciation for a ministry marked by faithfulness, compassion, and sincere devotion to the work of God. Over the years, he has served the Akuapem-Ridge Interdenominational Church (AIC) with a heart attuned to God’s call and leading and a spirit committed to caring for His people.
“And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will lead you with knowledge and understanding.” Jeremiah 3:15 (NIV)
This Scripture reflects the grace with which Reverend Coomson has led us. His time with us has shown humility in leadership, strength in service, and kindness in shepherding. He has walked beside us through seasons of joy and moments of difficulty, sharing wisdom that guided us, prayers that lifted our spirits, and teachings that drew our hearts closer to Christ. His ministry has left an imprint not only on our church but on the lives of many who have been encouraged, comforted, and changed through his example of a life lived for God.
A man of steady faith and sound doctrine, Reverend Coomson has carried out every responsibility with care and grace. His sermons have nourished our spirits. His counsel has brought clarity and understanding. His presence has brought peace. And his life, steadfast, consistent, anchored in faith, and rooted in Christ has stood as a living witness to the God he so faithfully serves.
Beyond the pulpit, Reverend Coomson has been a father figure, a mentor, a confidant, and a gentle guide whose sincere love for people reflects the heart of Christ. His ability to listen with patience, encourage with kindness, and lead with honesty and integrity has shaped our church family in ways that will remain long after this moment.
Today, the Council of Elders and the entire AIC family come together in heartfelt appreciation. We honour Reverend Julius Coomson not only for what he has done, but for who he is: an exemplary servant of God, a vessel of wisdom, and a true blessing to our church.
As he steps into a new season, we pray that the Lord will surround him with favour, joy, renewed strength, and the abundant grace reserved for faithful servants. May every seed he has planted continue to bear fruit, and may God’s goodness follow him and his family all the days of his life.
For his devoted ministry, exemplary service, and lasting impact, we the Akuapem-Ridge Interdenominational Church present this citation with deep respect and heartfelt gratitude.
