National - Peter Awane

Word International School & Ministry - Ghana, West Africa

Pastor Peter Awane has been a devoted believer for many decades, dedicating his life to spreading the gospel and equipping his community. For 18 years, he worked tirelessly to translate the Old Testament from Hebrew into his native FraFra language, a monumental effort that culminated in 2008 when the first translated versions were finally placed into the hands of the FraFra people.

Peter is a church planter and the leader of a dynamic ministry that encompasses a radio station, a school serving 500 students K-12, a thriving mother church, and multiple church plants. Through his NGO, his mission is clear: to reach and disciple people for Christ through preaching, radio ministry, and Christian education for children and youth.

Peter’s passion for ministry extends beyond the pulpit. He is also a songwriter, having composed music for several music videos produced by his wife, Comfort, who is highly gifted in drama and musical productions. Her impact reached far beyond the church—during a national election, both political parties aired one of her music videos on national television as part of their campaigns. The video, which highlighted the devastation of war and presented Jesus as the true source of peace, resonated across political and spiritual lines.

Looking ahead, Peter is developing five acres of land to further serve his people, with a strong focus on Christian education that provides practical skills and sustainable livelihoods for all ages. As God allows, ASON Internationalis committed to standing with Peter in this vision—supporting his efforts through the generosity of people like you.
