The cloth, printed in blue with white background colours, revealed the logo of the anniversary celebrations, which blends symbolism and modern design, reflecting the church’s rich history and vision for the future.

At the heart of the design is the iconic Presbyterian logo, circled by elements that represent unity, continuity, and resilience. The figure “200” prominently featured in the design represents the bicentenary of the church (1828-2028).

From congregations in every corner in Ghana to congregations in Europe and North America, children, adult worshippers, leaders of the church groups and the clergy alike, turned up in amazing outfits made from the fabric, setting the tone for the launch of the four-year celebration of the 200th anniversary of the church, which will be climaxed in 2028.

The theme for the anniversary, “PCG@200: Celebrating God’s Faithfulness and Impacting Generations through the Gospel”, sums up the essence of the church’s mission over the past two centuries.

The Moderator of the General Assembly, Rt Rev. Dr Abraham Nana Opare Kwakye, described the logo as “a testament to God’s grace and the unwavering commitment of generations of Presbyterians who have dedicated themselves to building both the church and the nation.”

While encouraging Presbyterians to hold on to the heritage and core values, the Moderator also urged them to embrace innovation, emphasising the church's resilience and unwavering commitment to serving humanity.

He also highlighted the church's contributions to various sectors, including education, health care, and social justice, and called for continued faithfulness in the face of challenges.
