The Pentecost Students and Associates (PENSA) Cape Coast Sector organised fun games to foster friendship and unity among students from various institutions within the sector.
The event, held at the Cape Coast Technical Institute on November 24, 2024, saw participation from PENSA members of Cape Coast Nursing and Midwifery Training College (CCNMTC), Psychiatric Nursing Training College (PNTC), and Cape Coast Technical University (CCTU).
Participants engaged in various activities including football, volleyball, sack race, tennis ball, lime spoon race, and track events.
The PENSA Traveling Secretary for Cape Coast Sector, Pastor Blessing Joseph Quayson, addressed the participants, reading from 1 Corinthians 9:24-27.
He emphasised the importance of running a race with discipline and obedience to receive a prize, encouraging participants to aim for the imperishable heavenly crown. He indicated that the purpose of the games was not only to socialise but also to win souls for Christ.

The PNTC male team and CCTU ladies won the volleyball competitions. Additionally, CCNMTC gentlemen triumphed in the 100m race, and CCNMTC ladies won the sack race.
