Ramseyer Training Centre (RTC)
RTC is a lay training centre of the Presbyterian
Church of Ghana (PCG) that is ecumenically oriented

collaboration. RTC has activities and programmes
that range from Interfaith Dialogue, Lay Training,
Family Counseling, Evangelism, Health and Healing

Resolution. Others include, Inter Cultural Bible
Reading and Contextual Bible Studies (CBS).
RTC has over the years become a converging place for
study, worship, research, dialogue and reflection.
It is also a place of comfort for retreats,
reflections on issues of religious, social,
political and economic in nature. In brief, it is a
Centre for learning that places emphasis on the
vocation and ministry of the laity in the world. It
is therefore a meeting point for the Church and the
World. RTC also provides a unique and a well
nurtured environment for Christians to listen to
what God is saying to them through the events of the
world.
