GREETINGS
Hello to all of you who are reading this report from the Bear Valley extension School in Liberia, West Africa. It has been a great privilege and blessing to be part of God workforce in teaching the truth in His kingdom here in this part of the world. We are so very grateful for this opportunity to serve. Many thanks to all those making it possible through their willing sacrifices for the sake of the kingdom. So far, all has been moving very well.
GRADUATION IN GUEKEDOU, GUINEA
The dean of students for the school in Liberia in person of Brother Fester G. Lee and myself were privileged to be part of the first ever graduation ceremony of the School Guekedou Guinea where 15 evangelist were trained to expand the kingdom of our Lord. It was a very beautiful program that brought together, if not all the congregations in Guinea, then most of them including congregations and preachers from Sierra Leone. The graduation also welcome 20 new students into the program with the hope of training more men for the Lord's work force in that part of the world.
BIBLE GEOGRAPHY CLASS
It was planned earlier this year that Brother Steven Ashcraft would come to Liberia and teach a class in Bible Geography for a week beginning March 16, but the class could not come on because of the issues of the corona virus and the worried of possible travel restrictions across Africa. So Brother Steven has to leave to avoid any traveling problems. He met shortly with the student on Monday morning the 16th of March and horridly left with a taxi to Monrovia and left Liberia.The students felt so bad, but have to accept the situation since we had no control over the happenings.
THE CORONA VIRUS NEWS
The news of the corona virus is fast spreading across the world making Liberia no exception, but Liberia is still very safe with no regulations from our Government yet about this disease that could possibly course fear in people. So Liberia is still very claim and running normally. We assure you of obeying any pronouncement from the government that will help keep all of us safe against this deadly pandemic.
WEEKEND EVANGELISM
Our students continued their weekend evangelism in engaging the communities around the school campus in weekends house to house evangelism and distributions of tracks. This is a compulsory requirement for the students to get them practice for the future as trained gospel preachers. As usual, their weekend work includes visit to the hospitals and prison. Presentations and reports are made every Monday morning to evaluate their weekend field work. Meanwhile, this effort is not only making the church known or have great impart on prospects they come across, but helping the individual students with great experiences on field work and what to expect in the future of their own ministry.
Conclusion
We want to thank all of you so much for supporting the work in Liberia. Without you, this effort would not be possible. May God richly bless you.
In Him,
Robert P. Dahn, Jr.
