The Accra Ridge Church is perhaps the foremost “inter-denominational and international English language church” in Ghana. A 1954 leaflet on the church noted that: “The Accra Ridge Church originated in 1935 due to the community of worship desired by a number of residents from the residential area of Accra known as the Ridge.” The Ridge was then almost entirely populated by British civil servants and other servants of The Crown residing in the capital of the greater Gold Coast colony. Most such men and women as well as their spouses and children were largely Anglicans who availed themselves of worship at the local Trinity Cathedral. For very practical reasons, mostly a desire for ‘a church service fully in English and of a simpler pattern than was provided at the Holy-Trinity Cathedral,” some of the Anglican expatriates at the Ridge took the initiative to establish a neighbourhood community of worship, at the Ridge. The development was fully supported by the then Bishop of Accra, Bishop Aglioby and the first Chaplain of the Anglican Church at the Ridge was Rev. W. G. Harward who was appointed by the U. K. -based Anglican Society for the propagation of the Gospel. It is a matter of record that Rev. W. G. Harward, as Canon Harward, became Headmaster of the country’s premier secondary school, Headmaster. But that is a story on its own. The maiden Minutes Book of the Ridge Church opened thus: “On Monday, 18th January 1937, a meeting was held in the European Chaplaincy of members of the Congregation of the European Church.
