In a homily, Bishop Essien, said that with the enthronement, there should be a significant change in the attitude and commitment of the people.
He paid tribute to the officers of the Ghana National Sacred Heart Enthronement Centre, especially its President, Mrs. Cecilia Kwofie, for their commitment and devotion to work and their untiring efforts to promote devotions to the Sacred Heart.
Fr. Maunger asked the devotees to use the Lenten period to intensify their prayers, fast, and do charity, adding that as “devotees,” others should see the love of Christ in them.

The New Officers for the Centre are Mr. Obeng, President; Mr. Albert Govele, Vice President; Mr. Philip Ankaman, Secretary; Mr. J.W. Affum, Assistant Secretary; Sister Agnes Boatemaa Amoah; Mr. Stephen Gyan and Mr. Michael Appiah-Fiakye, members of the Executive Committee.
