The Call
In the month of May, 1983, Reverend Simon Kwabla Kwashie had an encounter with the Lord. At an early age of sixteen an unusual passion was stirred in him to see the lost come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. This joy of seeing people saved got hold of him strongly, and he started propagating God’s word in Tema (a town in the capital city of Ghana). He preached in schools, on buses, and indeed everywhere else the opportunity was afforded to him. Simon's calling and greater desire has always been to see souls get born again into the Kingdom of God and established in Christ.
It was this desire and the encouragement of Bishop Richard Ahiagbedey, the General Overseer of Adonai International Ministries (Head office in Tema) that propelled Simon Kwashie to get enrolled into the ALL NATION BIBLE TRAINING CENTRE in 1991 to acquire formal training and help give his God given desire and calling a certain focus of direction. He graduated from the institute in May 1993 and later that same year was ordained into Ministry at the Adonai International Ministries in Tema. He proceeded to serve in various capacities in Adonai International Ministries as an Evangelist and later pastored the Takoradi branch. He later moved to Tema to become the resident pastor of the Head office branch. In 2007 to 2011 he did some ministerial work in Cape Coast; in the later part of those years he served as an associate pastor of Fountain Gate Chapel, Cape Coast.

The passion for souls got stronger and stronger and in prayer the Lord impressed on him and instructed to raise a team who were to be trained, equipped and its sole vision mandate is to go out and WIN SOULS and TRANSFORM LIVES. These instructions from the Lord birthed LIVING PRESENCE EVANGELISTIC NETWORK (LIPEN) in 2014.
LIPEN is not a CHURCH but rather partners with Churches for the Harvest of Souls. It is God’s will that all should be saved and how can they be saved without a messenger? The Harvest is truly plentiful but the labourers are few.
Reverend Simon Kwabla Kwashie strongly believes Evangelism is THE HEART BEAT OF GOD. There is nothing that makes heaven joyful like a soul won for the Lord.

Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
