For years, OTTN has expressed God’s love through diverse generosity initiatives that meet social needs and touch lives.
In 2015, OTTN stepped in to complete the construction of the Lady Heike Nursery School, helping create a safe and welcoming space for learners. From cement work and ceilings to doors, windows, painting, and furniture, OTTN provided both materials and labour to create a safe and welcoming learning environment. Beyond infrastructure, OTTN committed to paying teachers’ salaries every month and providing hot meals for pupils every school day. During the 2015/2016 academic year alone, 78 children benefited from this support. At Christmas, the joy extended beyond the classroom as each child received a Santa Sack, while their families were blessed with rice and cooking oil.
OTTN’s commitment to children’s education has been extended to Street Academy in Accra, a school serving underprivileged children. Since 2015, OTTN has partnered with the academy through its Back-to-School Programme, providing notebooks and pens to pupils transitioning into mainstream schools. OTTN has also supplied learning materials to strengthen education outcomes, contributed toward the establishment of a medical centre, and donated tables and furniture to improve the classroom experience.
In 2021, OTTN began partnering with the Ma-Pauline Foundation in Ashaiman, supporting the care and well-being of orphaned children. This partnership has continued over the years, helping to provide support to the children’s needs.
In 2025, OTTN visited the foundation again, spending time with the children and engaging in meaningful discussions with Ma-Pauline about ministry and the ongoing impact of the foundation in nurturing and supporting the lives of these children.
In response to the harsh conditions during the Harmattan season, OTTN launched the “Harmattan Love” initiative in 2024. The Harmattan Love initiative extended OTTN’s reach beyond schools and orphanages to vulnerable communities in Northern Ghana. Through this outreach, food, clothing, and essential supplies were shared with widows, orphans, the elderly, and Fulani families, bringing warmth, hope, and practical support during a difficult season. Building on its success, the initiative was extended to Uganda, where the Nuba community and refugees received similar support, fostering unity and opening doors to previously unreached areas.
From schools and orphanages to the streets and rural communities, OTTN continues to be a vessel of God’s love—transforming lives, one act of generosity at a time.
To God be the glory!

Under the evening sky in Tolon Wayamba, a spirit of expectation filled the community as residents gathered for an ACTs outreach aligned with OTTN’s vision of preparing the way for the return of our Lord.
Children, youth, and adults came together with curiosity and openness, creating a welcoming atmosphere for the message of the gospel. The highlight of the outreach was the screening of Walking with Jesus (Parts 1–4), thoughtfully presented with timely explanations and spiritual emphasis to help participants clearly understand the message of salvation.
Engagement remained strong throughout the outreach, with more than 25 children and over 15 adults in attendance. As the outreach concluded, an invitation was extended for individuals to respond to the gospel, and several community members received prayer. The gathering ended in thanksgiving to God, confident that His Word had been faithfully shared and planted in the hearts of the people of Tolon Wayamba.

OTTN’s Empowered WaveMakers (EWM) is a training conference designed to equip Christian professionals with strong biblical foundation and practical skills for disciple-making. EWM brings together Christians from different backgrounds and age groups to learn, grow, and be prepared to make disciples in their communities.
The training uses a seven-module workshop that combines biblical teaching with practical skills. EWM focuses on discipleship principles, cultural and religious understanding, spiritual warfare, and children’s ministry. Participants are encouraged to live out their faith in daily life and intentionally help others follow Christ. Strong teamwork and follow-up structures are also emphasised to ensure that disciple-making continues after the training.
In Uganda, EWM trainings include regional camps that bring together participants from various tribes, denominations, and language groups, including South Sudanese. These gatherings have equipped emerging leaders, formed new disciple-making teams, and strengthened local follow-up efforts, especially in hard-to-reach areas. In Northern Ghana, EWM trainings have mobilised Christian professionals such as teachers, farmers, artisans, and educationists to impact their communities through discipleship.
EWM reflects OTTN’s commitment to empowering local believers, strengthening leadership, and advancing sustainable Disciple-Making Movements that bring lasting transformation to communities.

As part of our long-standing partnership with Street Academy, OTTN presented exercise books, pens, and pencils to more than 300 pupils to help them start the 2023/2024 academic year on a strong note.
The donation was led by OTTN’s missions Coordinator, who shared heartfelt words of encouragement with the children of the academy.
“Our aim is to impact the lives of the children. We want to make a change. We want them to be hopeful and not be moved by their immediate surroundings. That can be done through education and the love for the word of God,” he said. He also encouraged them to take their studies seriously, noting that education remains the key to transforming their future.
The Founder of the Academy, Ataa Lartey, expressed his gratitude for OTTN’s continued support. He noted that gestures like these inspire the pupils to stay committed to learning and to believe in their potential.
“This kind of support motivates our students to know that someone cares about them,” he said. “It encourages them to stay in school and work hard toward becoming responsible citizens.”
Street Academy, which provides education and skills training to less privileged but talented children aged 10 to 14, continues to be a beacon of hope for many young lives through its programs in academics, sports, culture, and dance.
As the pupils return to school, OTTN is grateful to be part of their journey—equipping them with the tools and encouragement they need to thrive.
At OTTN, we remain committed to reaching out, uplifting lives, and pouring out the love of Christ through our generosity initiative.
