In Ghanaian culture, names are very important and carry great meaning. The name is kept a secret until the Outdooring Ceremony, where friends and family gather to celebrate the birth of the child.
The birth of this child is especially meaningful because this family lost a 6 yr old daughter a year ago to malaria.

Beloved Brethren,
It was a joyful celebration as believers gathered together on Monday morning to celebrate God's goodness and faithfulness to us as a family in Christ. As Dorcas and I was praying for a name that will be given to the newly born baby boy into our family, God gave us this name, Hanani.
Hanani is a Hebrew name and the meaning is Yahweh is Gracious. His Dagomba name is Chalpang,meaning forgive. Hanani was a brother of Nehemiah who reported the return exiles to Jerusalem reproach to Nehemiah. He was also one of the family leaders during the time of rebuilding the wall.
Pray that God's gracious hand will be upon Hanani and he will grow to Love and serve God with fear all his life on earth.
Thank you for your prayers in advance.
Pastor Mohammed
