The Anglican Church has been noted for its efforts in complementing development through the provision of Educational facilities, livelihood empowerment projects and the provision of potable drinking water to the less privilege in society. Mr. Christian Percy Brown, president of the association made this known at the 14th Biennial National Delegates Conference of the Church in Tamale under the theme; “will your Anchor hold in the Storms of Life”. The conference aims at motivating the youth to stand firm in trying moment of their lives. It also aims at enhancing their spiritual and moral abilities to enable them assist the church and the community that they live. The President of the Anglican Young Peoples Association charged delegates not to remain the same but transform societies after the delegates conference.  He expressed optimism that the youth of the church will remain steadfast not only to the development of the church but the societies in which they live. The Regional Ministers Representative Mr. Owusu Frimpong stated that people of the Northern region and Ghana owe the Anglican Church a great debt of gratitude for playing a role of providing education to the people through the establishment of many educational institutions. The youth were asked not to involve themselves in hopelessness that will bring disrepute to the society. New executives are to be elected this year to run the affairs of the Association to tenure.
