The International Central Gospel Church in Accra is one of the biggest in Ghana. It is headed by the charismatic Mensa Otabil, whose motivational style of preaching has made him immensely popular, especially it seems among the aspirational and upwardly mobile English-speaking urbanites. This was the second of two services, each attended by a congregation of thousands. It was held in the huge auditorium in a new complex of buildings. The backdrop to the stage shows a mural which includes depictions of a rocket, a soaring eagle and a stairway to heaven, all conveying the year's theme of 'elevation', both spiritual and material.
