Speaking with fervor and conviction, Reverend Boateng underscored the immense value of investing in the completion of the National Cathedral, emphasizing its profound spiritual and financial benefits for the nation. He urged fellow citizens to unite in gratitude for Ghana’s blessings and rally behind this monumental endeavor.
“If we could raise an amount of $200 million to $250 million, the National Cathedral will be completed. Let’s look at the advantages the Cathedral will bring to Ghana and its financial benefits as a nation. God has blessed us, we need to come together and thank Him,” Reverend Boateng passionately asserted.
Drawing parallels with illustrious landmarks like the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington DC, Reverend Boateng envisioned the National Cathedral as a beacon of cultural heritage. Despite the comparatively lower cost of around $300 million for the Ghanaian project, he confidently proclaimed its potential to surpass the renowned American museum in both scale and technological advancements.

“Washington Museum in construction cost $600 million, but after the completion of the Cathedral, Ghana shall have a Bible museum of Africa that will in terms of space, content, and technology be higher than the American Museum that cost them $600 million. All costs together our Cathedral, Biblical Museum, Biblical Gardens is just around $300 million, and ours is bigger than the American Bible Museum that costs $600 million,” Reverend Boateng passionately stated.
Appealing to the Christian community and believers at large, Reverend Boateng issued a heartfelt call to action, urging collective efforts in realizing the Cathedral’s construction. He likened it to a cherished heritage and stressed the importance of having a dedicated religious structure that stands as a testament to Ghana’s faith and commitment to spiritual reverence.
