Accra - Post Report Question and Answers
What English-language religious services are available locally?
Accra has many mosques, including a beautiful national mosque which is breathtaking. I do not know if there are any Hindu temples or Jewish synogagues. However, there is a large Israeli population, so I suspect there might be. There are many Christian churches. My family attends mass at the embassy of the Holy See. One of our children received their first communion and the other their confirmation with a wonderful international group of children. - Sep 2023
Christianity is the majority religion in Ghana, mostly of the Pentecostal, gospel of wealth fire and brimstone variety. There is also a sizable Muslim population. Religion is very important in Ghana and churches are plentiful. - Nov 2022
Lots of churches. There's one that a bunch of expats go to and it's maybe 20 min away. - Sep 2022
There's a church on every corner in Accra. - Mar 2022
A lot. Religion seems to be a major past time/industry here. Billboards and posters everywhere advertising prayer meetings/days of miracles/end of times. The culture is very religious particularly Christian with all denominations represented. Muslims have numerous mosques as well. Most services seem to be in English but are likely a mix with local languages (and tongues!) - Nov 2019
Lots,but this comes with the caveat that Ghanaian church is a very different experience. Services are very long, and even liturgically-based churches like the Anglican or Roman Catholic churches manage to draw services out to two or three hours. Many Ghanaians spend the better part of every Sunday at church. One exception is the Apostolic Nunciature, which has a Roman Catholic service each Sunday that generally is more within US expectations for length. - May 2019
I think many religious services are in English, since it is a national language here. - Apr 2018
