The Beginning

Rooted in music and faith

Born in Kumasi, Ghana, on 4 November 1980, George grew up in a home where music and ministry were inseparable. His father, Reginald Mensah, was a veteran choir master; his mother, Janet Mensah, nurtured a household of faith.

George answered the call to ministry at just eight years old. By 1988 he was already leading — co-founding and conducting The Peace Makers, an evangelism and music group that set the course for everything to come.
