About us

The Holy Spirit Cathedral is the seat of the Catholic Archdiocese of Accra. The edifice, an imposing architecture, is second to none in the country. It has served as an important space for many Archdiocesan and National celebrations.
Many people from all walks of life, both young and old, nationals and non-nationals have been associated with the Holy Spirit Cathedral. The welcoming ambience of the Cathedral grounds and its striking calmness within the threshold of the liturgical space evokes such a perfect divine presence that can hardly go unnoticed.
Like any other church within the Archdiocese, the Holy Spirit Cathedral, through its Parish Pastoral Council, has raised and nurtured many resourceful leaders within the vast structures of the church’s Administration over the years. For the Youth Apostolate, the Parish Youth Council coordinates all activities of the various Youth Groups.
Currently, there are 28 Groups/Societies with various charismas. These Groups and Societies have been the rallying point for the mobilization of our human resource and the basis for the various activities within the church.

Our core objectives are defined within the following context:

Church Hisotry

It has been argued that because of the distance from Adabraka to Derby Avenue where the only Catholic Church in Accra was located at the time, it was thought more convenient to begin a new Catholic community at Adabraka. By 1933, a new Catholic community had developed at Adabraka. A Priest from Sacred Heart Church conducted regular Sunday Services for the new community in the house of Mr. Kuevi on the Castle Road. In November of 1939 or 1940, the annual Corpus Christi procession was held to avoid the rainy season in June/July. It began at the Adabraka Church in Mr. Kuevi’s house all the way to Sacred Heart Church. When Fr. Joseph Harold Lauck arrived in Ghana in January 1941, he was placed in charge of the Adabraka Community which was still meeting in Mr. Kuevi’s house.
