Theme for the semester : "ATTAINING THE FULLNESS OF CHRIST - Ephesians 4:13"

The idea of starting PENSA –KNUST was mooted at the General Witness Movement Convention held in August 1979, at Sunyani, which was attended by a substantial number of the Church of Pentecost members form the University of Science and Technology, Kumasi.

Members of the Church of Pentecost who were instrumental in the formation of PENSA included Elder Anim of blessed memory and Nkansah, both lecturers of KNUST who served as pioneer patrons.
Although the group started with 33 members, the following brothers and sisters who were all students of KNUST culminated the founding fathers: Stephen Ampofo, Joshua Adjabeng, Peter Ayerkwa, J.S.Gyimah, Offei Awuku, Constance Nkansah and Georgette Sackey.
Apostle Egyir Painstil, Apostle F.D. Walker, Apostle F.S. Sarfo and Apostle A.T. Nartey all of blessed memory played key roles in the formation of PENSA KNUST.

The founding members also include Emmanuel Obeng, the first president,Alex Asilevi, Isaac Ghansah, Ken Aboah, Adjei Wood, Joseph Paintsil, Thomas Coleman, Adutu Amakye, Rebecca Yankson, Joseph Lamptey, Betty Ennin, Oheneba Amponsah, Amponsah Nyarko, Adjei Danso, and Mrs. Obeng. Also members of the Assemblies of God, Christ Apostolic Church, and Calvary Road Singers were pioneer Associate members.

PENSA was the strongest pioneer Church group on Campus which introduced Pentecostalism and the work of the Holy Spirit to believers on Campus.

In addition PENSA members played key leadership roles in the Inter-Hall Christian Fellowship producing Presidents like Joshua Adjabeng and George Amponsah, Wing leaders like Isaac Ghansah, Ken Aboah, Isaac Ollenu, Isaac Banka, Geoffrey Arthur just to mention a few.

Tarry nights prayer meetings, retreats to villages, evangelism, the first organized at Nsuaem in 1981 and since been an annual programme.

The activities of PENSA took a new dimension after 1990/1 academic year when Inter- Tertiary Institutions (ITI) –PENSA came into being to actually strengthen and sustain the vision of PENSA in the tertiary institutions. The role of PENSA KNUST in the past years need not be over-emphasized. The normal Sunday services could no longer be held neither at Africa Hall Chapel nor the games room. Consequently services at the dining hall started.

The contributions of PENSA-KNUST since its inception have been remarkable.

She played significant role in enhancing the formation of PENSA at the University of Cape |Coast in 1989 and Legon in 1990. University of Development Studies at Nyankpala in January 1999.

The vision of the mother church and its tenants have always been the main focus of PENSA-KNUST resulting in the production of many Pastors, full time workers and elders who are serving the Church of Pentecost and other Pentecostal; churches. These include Prophet J.S. Gyimah, Evangelist Peter Ayerakwa, Pastor Adjei Danso, Pastor Joshua Adjabeng, Joseph Ampene, Rev. Samuel Asante, Rev. Solomon Odame., Rev. Mrs. |Emily Buabasah, Rev. Godwin Kisseh, Rev. Eastwood Anaba, Rev. Kwaku Kyei, Victor Egyan, Kofi Danso (Dortmond,Germany)

PENSA-KNUST has maintained its focus and balance and has not compromised with this disguising world.

The current challenges of the youth on our campus are many and varied and one can easily be swayed by the tremendous immoral influence or the powerful sexual drive propelled by the semi-nude ladies, or false doctrines or even deceptive and illicit relationships.

PENSA -KNUST is unique and has been an example to many on campus. Majority of our members earnestly continue to uphold the invaluable apostolic doctrines.

It’s our highest priority to keep to the principles of the sound doctrine of the church so that the church of Pentecost can boast of a Kingdom-minded youth.

Registration of members has been opened to all members of Pensa Knust.
