Liberia Update by Pastor Angelo

Sunday, I received a call that overjoyed my heart. It came from the newly formed church at Liberia. New Life Global Outreach has made its arrival in Liberia. How this came about, could have only been orchestrated by the Lord himself. Two months ago, one of the pastors, Pastor Morrison, who had been coming for training, related to me that he was moving to Liberia. He has graduated from vocational technical school as a master mason, plumber, and electrician. So he was moving to Liberia to work with his brother in construction. Deep inside of his heart, his burning dream was to pioneer a church, which he shared with decisive determination. This became the beginning of a new day for Liberia.

Now in Liberia, Pastor Morrison is reaching out to people who have gone through 14 years of civil war. They call me often, and I can hear people singing in the background, the praises of God rising up to heaven. There is the fire of God in the baby church. New converts are ready to worship and witness.

A miracle in the house came next in the plans of God. In the beginning, the glorious gospel came to a household, and in this home is where the church is meeting. The head of the household, is currently in prison serving time. Pastor Morrison went to the prison, to minister to him, and share with him Jesus as the real answer. He received the Lord in his heart, then in turn as he is overtaken by joy, gave ½ an acre for free to build a church. How amazing are God’s ways!

Soon we must go to Liberia to minister the word of hope and at the same time officially register New Life Global Outreach. Also the church in Liberia is eager to see us. We need to build a house of worship in Liberia, consider adopting Liberia in your heart. Will you keep Liberia in prayer? Pray for New Life Global Outreach in Liberia as it begins a journey of victory. Pray for more souls, more disciples, more laborers, more resources to fulfill the Great Commission.
