He taught at the Presbyterian Training College of the Gold Coast and worked for the Presbyterian Church and the Christian Council of Ghana, especially as a translator (having learnt the Twi language and others). He was also stationed at Amedzofe and Sandema in Northern Ghana.
Between 1943 and 1946 Forrester-Paton was secretary of the Student Christian Movement and became interested in missionary work.
