June 15, 2025 — In a heartfelt address marking Father’s Day 2025, Dr. Tsatsu E. Nyamadi, President of the Council of Ewe Associations of North America, Inc. (CEANA), extended warm greetings and deep appreciation to fathers across the Eweland and its diaspora. Speaking on behalf of CEANA’s executive leadership, Dr. Nyamadi saluted the sacrifices, compassion, and guidance of fathers—calling them the quiet architects of stronger families and thriving communities.

Quoting Psalm 103:13, “Just as a father has compassion for his children, so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him,” Dr. Nyamadi emphasized the sacred responsibility fathers carry in shaping the moral compass of future generations. He reminded all that beyond material support, fatherhood is a call to character, mentorship, and enduring love.

“Fathers are not just those who put food on our tables or pay school fees—they are those whose every thought and deed is dedicated to making life better for others,” he noted. Invoking Proverbs 22:6, he highlighted the profound influence of a father’s guidance on a child’s lifelong path.

In an expression of collective pride, Dr. Nyamadi reaffirmed the admiration and gratitude of the Ewe community: “For all fathers, the citizens of Eweland appreciate, adore, and admire your sacrifices; may you live long and be endowed with strength to continue your great work.”

The President also took the opportunity to spotlight CEANA’s upcoming 32nd Annual Convention, scheduled for August 28 to September 1, 2025, at the Sheraton DFW Airport Hotel in Irving, Texas. With the theme “Our Health, Our Wealth,” the gathering promises to blend cultural celebration, strategic dialogue, and fundraising for development projects across Eweland. CEANA encourages participation both in-person and online via www.ceanaonline.org and dallasewes.org.

“Thanks for your generosity over the years,” Dr. Nyamadi concluded, “It is your support that fuels our mission to uplift and restore our homeland.”

As families across the globe honor their fathers today, CEANA reminds all that the role of a father is not just to provide—but to nurture, guide, and build a better world for generations to come.

Happy Father’s Day.
